"ginger" is an old-fashioned new browser!
It loves html & css but is skeptical about cookies, scripts and plugins |
|
Cookies and scripts are supported but are disabled by default. They can be enabled for trusted sites. There are no plans for plugins yet. |
|
Its internal modules are firmly sandboxed |
|
For example, the css module can't access your filesystem nor can database code access the network. This is in addition to the sandboxing and same-origin policies of a typical browser. |
|
It is built with a high-level language and runtime (Java) |
|
We believe this choice can improve stability and security since high-level code is easier to write and audit. We will publish an analysis of the tradeoffs soon. |
