Eve

Eve is a web browser based on the EFL and  EWebKit, aimed primarily to be used on mobile devices with touch screens -- but it works like a charm on the desktop, too.

Features

Although still in its infancy, the browser is quite featureful to the point of being actually usable. Some highlights:

  • Multiple pages can be opened simultaneously
  • Bookmarks
  • History (no search yet -- but it possible to filter it)
  • Privacy mode
  • Comprehensive settings dialog

There are, of course, more things hidden behind the curtains.

Screenshots

No project page is complete without screenshots. Here are a few screenshots of Eve, demonstrating some of its features (click to see at a larger size):

Where to obtain

Source code (licensed under GNU LGPL3) is available from Enlightenment's SVN repository, in trunk/eve.

How to compile

Eve uses Autotools, so compiling it is very similar to other programs: configure, make, make install. However, there are some dependencies that must be installed:

These libraries have their own set of dependencies, so you'll need to install those as well. Please refer to their documentation to know what to install or use your distribution's packaging system (which should take care of this automatically).
