Tor Browser
Browser for using Tor on Windows, Mac OS X or Linux
Tor Browser enables you to use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. Tor is a software that bounces your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers. This effectively prevents anyone watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you visit; it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location; and allows you access to sites which are blocked. Tor Browser can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser to protect your anonymity, and is self-contained (portable). -

Cromite
Cromite a Bromite fork with ad blocking and privacy enhancements
Cromite is an open-source web browser project that originated as a fork of Bromite—a Chromium-based browser focused on ad blocking and enhanced privacy—and continues to evolve with built-in privacy protections and content filtering across Android, Windows, and Linux platforms. It retains the core goal of limiting tracking and intrusive ads by integrating ad blocking directly into the browser engine rather than relying on external extensions, all while striving to reduce telemetry, aggressive analytics, and close manufacturer integration. Cromite emphasizes user choice and control over web content, offering privacy-oriented settings and mitigations such as anti-fingerprinting measures and configurable filters to block unwanted elements. The project extends its focus beyond Android to desktop platforms, building packages that let users benefit from a more private browsing experience without sacrificing compatibility with modern web standards. -

DB Browser for SQLite
The DB Browser for SQLite
DB Browser for SQLite (DB4S) is a high quality, visual, open source tool to create, design, and edit database files compatible with SQLite. DB4S is for users and developers who want to create, search, and edit databases. DB4S uses a familiar spreadsheet-like interface, and complicated SQL commands do not have to be learned. This program is not a visual shell for the sqlite command line tool, and does not require familiarity with SQL commands. It is a tool to be used by both developers and end users, and must remain as simple to use as possible in order to achieve these goals. Import and export records as text, import and export tables from/to CSV files, import and export databases from/to SQL dump files, issue SQL queries and inspect the results, examine a log of all SQL commands issued by the application, plot simple graphs based on table or query data. -

Its UI and feature set emphasize minimalism, no “smart” recommendations, account sync, or background data collection, resulting in a distraction-free browsing experience that respects user autonomy. The browser is available across macOS, Linux, and Windows, each version built from a fully open source pipeline for reproducibility and trust. Development focuses on maintaining compatibility with modern web standards while decoupling Chromium from its Google dependencies and services. -

Progressive Web Apps for Firefox
A tool to install, manage and use Progressive Web Apps (PWAs)
A tool to install, manage and use Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) in Mozilla Firefox. Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are web apps that use web APIs and features along with a progressive enhancement strategy to bring a native app-like user experience to cross-platform web applications. Although Firefox supports many of Progressive Web App APIs, it does not support functionality to install them as a standalone system app with an app-like experience. This project creates a custom-modified Firefox runtime to allow websites to be installed as standalone apps and provides a console tool and browser extension to install, manage and use them. Command-line tool to install, manage and run Progressive Web Apps in Firefox. Extension to set up native programs, and install, manage and run PWAs and their profiles directly from the main Firefox browser. Isolated Firefox installation and profile(s) that stores the PWAs. -

FlareSolverr
Proxy server to bypass Cloudflare protection
FlareSolverr is a proxy server to bypass Cloudflare and DDoS-GUARD protection. FlareSolverr starts a proxy server, and it waits for user requests in an idle state using few resources. When some request arrives, it uses puppeteer with the stealth plugin to create a headless browser (Firefox). It opens the URL with user parameters and waits until the Cloudflare challenge is solved (or timeout). The HTML code and the cookies are sent back to the user, and those cookies can be used to bypass Cloudflare using other HTTP clients. Web browsers consume a lot of memory. If you are running FlareSolverr on a machine with few RAM, do not make many requests at once. With each request, a new browser is launched. It is also possible to use a permanent session. However, if you use sessions, you should make sure to close them as soon as you are done using them. It is recommended to install using a Docker container because the project depends on an external browser that is already included. -

Chromium
The official GitHub mirror of the Chromium source
Chromium is the open‑source foundational web browser project that drives browsers like Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Opera—built for speed, stability, security, and extendability across platforms. This directory is currently in a prototyping state and may be removed in the future. As we add support for multiple coding IDE/agents, we will likely pull common prompts and instructions into a central directory with stubs for bespoke IDE/agent integration. Please check with your organization before using GitHub Copilot. copilot-intructions.md is typically a single instruction file that contains default instructions for a workspace. These instructions are automatically included in every chat request. -

Because it’s open source and actively developed by the community, new features, security updates, and performance improvements arrive regularly to align with web standards. -

Don't waste your time with compliance. Universal Bypass circumvents annoying link shorteners. Universal Bypass bypasses templates that are used on thousands of domains and it would be impossible for me to keep a complete list of domains that are bypassed. You would have to get a new Universal Bypass version and accept its new permissions for each new bypass. Custom Bypasses would be pretty pointless if you could only create them for sites that are already bypassed. Also known in the options as "Give and take the destinations of unbypassable shorteners.", this feature exists to bypass a respectable amount of link shorteners using CAPTCHAs and other forms of backend validation to make sure you've actually waited before you can proceed to the target link, to share this target with other Universal Bypass users, who come across the same link in the future, so they can proceed to the target immediately.

geckodriver
WebDriver for Firefox
geckodriver is an implementation of WebDriver, and WebDriver can be used for widely different purposes. How you invoke geckodriver largely depends on your use case. If you are using geckodriver through Selenium, you must ensure that you have version 3.11 or greater. Because geckodriver implements the W3C WebDriver standard and not the same Selenium wire protocol older drivers are using, you may experience incompatibilities and migration problems when making the switch from FirefoxDriver to geckodriver. Generally speaking, Selenium 3 enabled geckodriver as the default WebDriver implementation for Firefox. With the release of Firefox 47, FirefoxDriver had to be discontinued for its lack of support for the new multi-processing architecture in Gecko. Since geckodriver is a separate HTTP server that is a complete remote end implementation of WebDriver, it is possible to avoid using the Selenium remote server if you have no requirements to distribute processes across a matrix of systems. -

camofox-browser
Headless browser automation server for AI agents to visit sites
camofox-browser is a headless browser automation server built specifically for AI agents that need to interact with websites that often block standard automation stacks. It wraps Camoufox, a Firefox fork that performs fingerprint spoofing at the C++ level, which means many browser characteristics are altered before page scripts can inspect them, rather than relying on JavaScript-layer stealth patches. The project is designed around a REST API, making it easier for agents and external tools to create tabs, navigate pages, click elements, type input, scroll, capture screenshots, and manage browsing sessions programmatically. Instead of returning large volumes of raw HTML, it emphasizes accessibility snapshots and stable element references, which reduces token usage and creates more reliable interaction flows for AI-driven browsing. It also supports practical operational features such as per-user session isolation, cookie importing for authenticated browsing, proxy and GeoIP routing. -

Return YouTube Dislike
Chrome extension to return youtube dislikes
Return YouTube Dislike is an open-source extension that returns the YouTube dislike count. Available for Chrome and Firefox as a Web Extension. Also available for other browsers as JS Userscript.
