A browser with a deliberately small, simplified HTML/CSS subset and optional JavaScript implemented as a plugin rather than built-in. The goal: keep HTML and CSS compact and predictable so any novice could implement a compatible browser from scratch. Instead of adhering to the full official specs, use a purposefully limited subset to avoid the complexity and bloat of modern web standards an easy way to simplify and streamline the web.
completely ignore other "modern" features such as webgl/webassembly etc.

any such project? I'm aware of gemini protocol but this one is too minimal.

The most similar thing that exists to what you are describing is the Dillo Browser. I'm aware a developer has taken over the project, which previously seemed discontinued.

It's a good idea you dumb nigger. Just already kinda been done.

This and NetSurf are the first that came to mind. NetSurf is straight HTML/CSS by default, but you compile with an extra lib and switch if you be wantin that javascript support yo.

HTML and css are dope as fuck though. If you wanna make a browser with a limited set of functionality, nobody's stopping you. You could also just use old browsers.
And if you want to get an absolutely gimped piece of shit browser with bad compatibility and requiring a shitton of polyfills to get shit working the way it does on decent browsers, just use safari
What's your problem?

>What's your problem? what do you mean you don't want OpenGL and niggerassembly in your browser on a top of markup language that was never meant to be used as a GUI?
>>
>>108519794
NetSurf is good enough, the whole go compile JS is a bit extra but whatever, good enough.
but tabbing isn't that hard to implement, it doesn't have it.
>>
you’re looking for safari OP. plenty of web standards not implemented on that piece of shit. enjoy

Just block JS faggot (and enjoy not being able to access anything). HTML and CSS are fine.

The window manager, in the case of surf, likely dwm handles it. As it should be.
