Draft:Nyxt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nyxt, marketed as the hacker's browser, is a minimal keyboard driven Web browser for Linux that is web engine agnostic, written in Common Lisp. Nyxt supports Emacs, Vim as well as CUA[1] keybindings. Nyxt is developed by Atlas Engineer.

Functionality[edit]

Nyxt stands out for its extensive customizability, empowering users to adjust every aspect of its functionality. It is possible to overwrite and extend every part of Nyxt, tailoring its behavior to suit a wide range of workflows. Additionally, Nyxt incorporates a built-in Read–eval–print loop for convenient live programming, from within the browser.

Nyxt does not utilize tabs for navigation, instead it utilizes an emacs-like buffers and frames navigation system.[2] This allows for easier keyboard driven navigation with fuzzy search, as well as window splitting.[3]
