  • CLI browser with javascript and CSS

    From MeaTLoTioN@1337:1/101 to All on Fri Jan 22 11:39:10 2021
    Hey y'all,

    I just found this really cool CLI web browser with full JavaScript and CSS and blah blah support. It's actually quite amazing. Works in Linux, MacOS X, Windows 10 (possibly) and is a single downloadable runtime binary.

    You can use it over SSH on a server too, so it's just fantastic. https://www.brow.sh/ is the site to go and check it out, and I believe you will have a lot of fun with it

    TL;DR - Download the binary of choice, chmod +x downloaded_filename, ./downloaded_filename

    That'll run it, and then once running, press CTRL+L to focus the URL bar, type a web address, press return and boom! Fully working website in the terminal.

    ML, this is really nice and I think it'll make my /bin. Thank you... much cooler than Lynx. :P

    One thing tho, you'd think they'd optimize THEIR site a little bit more, so users could see the keybindings easier. Anyway tho - its awesome. I love how it creates photos with ANSI-like images. Very nice...

    Now, to learn all the keys. Also, I exited using Ctrl-C [oops] and now 'theres already a headless firefox instance running'... so I can't just fire it up.. I'll learn all the issues and ways tho; and this software rocks!
