WebKit
Home of the WebKit project, the browser engine used by Safari, Mail, App Store and many other applications on macOS, iOS and Linux.
> I think they're moving in the WebKit/Safari direction: open for you to look at, but not really an open source project.
Webkit absolutely takes third party submissions. https://webkit.org/contributing-code/ .
I believe this is an external PR merged a few hours ago at the time of this writing. https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/66507
Safari does not accept third party submissions, but the chrome has never been open (even before Google Chrome recycled the term).

Project mention: Tangram for Linux Is a Browser Built for Web Apps | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-10-10
I've been distro hopping recently and missing the Web Apps application in Linux Mint. Somehow, Tangram slipped my radar until now. Seems to have never been mentioned on HN too.

On Mac I used Finicky. I switched to Linux with Omarchy almost a year ago and went looking for an equivalent. Junction only asks every time, mimi doesn't carry routing rules. The remaining path was "build your own", and I did. It worked well, with a TUI that paired nicely with Omarchy. Then I thought: this should be a built-in feature on every OS, the same way each OS has a rule for which app opens PDFs. So I decided to do McLovin the right way: a cross-platform router, configurable by anyone, with a browser picker when nothing matches and rules to send every link to the right place.
