## Rosenrot
A small browser forked from [rose](https://github.com/mini-rose/rose).
- Rose is a minimal browser based on webkit2gtk which aims to be a "basement for creating your own browser using [the] gtk and webkit libraries".
- Rosenrot is my fork from rose. It has accumulated cruft that I like, like a "readability" plugin that simplifies annoying websites like [Matt Levine's Money Stuff newsletter](https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2022-10-18/matt-levine-s-money-stuff-credit-suisse-was-a-reverse-meme-stock).
- Rosenrot is also a song by the German hardcore rock band [Rammstein](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=af59U2BRRAU).
You can see some screenshots in the [screenshots](./screenshots) folder.
### Features
- tabs, cookies, caching
- minimal ui, autohiding elements
- ~467L core code (the rose.c file), plus plugins
- custom gtk and websites css
- builtin rose-mklink script for in-shell static links
- A few quality of life improvements.
### 👐 Contribute
- Contribute upstream to [github.com/mini-rose/rose](https://github.com/mini-rose/) for core functionality changes.

### To do
- [ ] Look at using relative rather than absolute paths
- [ ] Figure out if downloading files is doable.
- [ ] Figure out better way to have plugins
- [ ] Double check newtab/next-tab behavior
- [ ] Document stand_in.c better
- [ ] Find out what each of the css elements refers to.
- [ ] Use something other than Whatsapp as an example syslink.
- [ ] Set `webkit_web_context_set_sandbox_enabled` (<https://webkitgtk.org/reference/webkit2gtk/2.36.8/WebKitWebContext.html#webkit-web-context-set-sandbox-enabled>), as recommended here: <https://blogs.gnome.org/mcatanzaro/2022/11/04/stop-using-qtwebkit/>.
- [ ] Fix bug about distorted audio. Maybe related to <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/1547>
- [x] Mask user agent
Done:
- [x] Launch with more than one tab from command line
- [x] Figure out merge with upstream
- [x] String substitution on uri in order to redirect to better frontends.
- [x] Present "standard" browser keybindings as an alternative.
- [x] Fix zoom in new tab
- [x] Reader mode
- [x] Add reader mode to config.def.
- [x] Make tab bar slightly prettier.
