wrp VS InterWebPPC

https://github.com/tenox7/wrp allows you to use modern js as well, as long as you can render images

I use this for retrocomputing, in a way, to be very silly! tenox7's WRP [Web Rendering Proxy] basically runs headless Chrome and renders pages to gif/png/jpg and shoves them back at a client browser.

Just like the PowerBook G3 Pismo I have, the iBook uses commonly available 18650 cells, so it's easy to rebuild the battery. With built-in AirPort antennas, you can add an AirPort card and get WiFi (has to be Wireless B though, and sometimes there are issues with encryption so you usually have to run an open access point to connect). Now this is the crazy part, but you can run Web Rendering Proxy on a Raspberry Pi or other, more powerful machine, then use an old browser like Internet Explorer to browse the web. It mostly works, and it's a pretty fun way to get some strange looks in the coffee shop.

Depending on what you're trying to do, you can use a "vintage" web browser and something like Web Rendering Proxy to make the page work.

Chris and I released another Forkbomb epsidoe and this one is interviewing famed user Wicknix from Matrumors forum. He is the author of InterWebPPC , SpiderWeb, ArcticFox and more! We discussed several topics such as web browsers , Linux on PPC and video chatting over the internet with iChat AV on Leopard. I hope you enjoy. Would love to hear your feedback!

Probably InterWebPPC, a fork of the now defunct TenFourFox.

Sorry, that’s old, outdated news about the browsers. There’s the ‘new’ InterWebPPC (“Mozilla for Power Macintosh”). Nobody has an excuse for not being able to browse much of the web on OS X 10.4 or 10.5 PowerPC machines today.

The most usable browsers are TenFourFox (RIP), and InterWebPPC, which are both built on top of an older extended release version of Firefox.

In 10.4, you have more options, InterWebPPC is an updated branch of TenFourFox.

As a G5/G4 user myself I recommend installing tenfourfox or interweb ppc on the machine and con netting it to the router or switch with Ethernet as you did. With older browsers some websites don’t work as intended so they spit out some errors. ten four fox interweb ppc P.s. here some advice if you’re using a power Mac not all apps you find work on YouTube there are awesome communities that deal with retro machines and it could be entertaining and interesting follow they’re steps. this one in particular on YouTube is veri interesting and it explains awesome things on old computers and g5s.
