Atomschlag is a project of writing a Webkit-based browser using PyGTK and PyWebkitGTK, completely in Python, to create a useable, secure and lightweight replacement of existing browsers in custom appliances.
The primary project goals are:
- small size;
- minimal abilities to track you down based on the client info;
- maximal compatibility with proxy-based anonymity layers such as I2P;
- URL filtering for blocking ads and user tracking services;
- simple and non-overloaded user interface.

Features

  • Webkit-based, basic common keyboard shortcuts are available
  • Fullscreen mode (F11)
  • Debugging capabilities aka Atombug (WebInspector)
  • Non-tabbed, MDI interface (new pages are opened in new instances)
  • Depends only on PyWebkitGTK, GObject and libsoup 2.4
  • Support for proxying and I2P via commandline parameters (see "Blog" page for more information)
  • Ad-blocking support, by default containing one of the biggest blocklists on the Web
  • Support for user-defined CSS overrides
  • Basic download capabilities
  • Own user agent with spoofing ability
  • Simple configuration format (settings.json)
