I remember midori from my time on elementaryOS 0.3. Enjoyed it back then - wondered where it went.

Is midori a chromium based browser or is it its own thing?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Midori moved from webkit to electron. Electron use chromium engine, UI is node.js (see wiki). Developers write new UI on electron.
