low resource web browser

Name: Anonymous 2011-11-21 0:37

are there any web browsers out there with full support for javascript, and can render html normally? I wouldn't need anything like flash or java applets, but full support for fancy javascript would be nice for getting through fancy web sites and such. If one doesn't exist, I think I might try to make one, and shoot for 5 - 15MB of ram usage.

5-15MB of RAM usage on what? If it's 5-15MB with a 10MB page that would be very impressive. If it's 5-15MB with a 1KB page, that's not great.

uzbl uses WebKit, which means around the same amount of bloat as Chome and Safari, except with a different interface.

You could try adding JS to NetSurf.

I'll admit I've been writing a web browser myself too, in C. I've gotten not much more than the HTML tokenizer done, because it's a time-killing thing. If only there were 64KB web browser competitions...
