53 Background information
54 ----------------------
56 What lariza is and what it's not
58 lariza does what I need. It won't do other things. I'm open for
59 contributions but please don't be upset if I turn them down -- which
60 might happen if it's a feature that I simply don't need.
62 lariza does not compete with powerful browsers like dwb or luakit, nor
63 with monstrous applications like Firefox or Chromium.
67 "lariza" stems from a german sentence:
69 Alle anderen waren mir zu anstrengend.
72 That phrase basically means: "It was too tiresome to deal with any
73 other browser." I couldn't find a simple browser that does just what I
74 need. Most of them are utterly bloated, others lack essential
75 functions. Thus, I was forced to write scripts and tools and stuff to
76 deal with these issues. That is what was tiresome. I don't want to
77 work around bugs or nonsensical behavior anymore.
79 So, I wrote my own browser^W WebKit GUI. WebKit does all the dirty
84 MIT License, see the LICENSE file for more information.
