Wexond is an extensible and privacy-focused web browser with a totally different user experience, built on top of `Electron` and `React`. It aims to be fast, private, beautiful, extensible and functional.
> Note: This project is no longer under active development, though, we will still accept Pull Requests.
# Features

- **Highly customizable new tab page** - Customize almost an every aspect of the new tab page!
- **Customizable browser UI** - Choose whether Wexond should have compact or normal UI.
- **Tab groups** - Easily group tabs, so it's hard to get lost.
- **Scrollable tabs**
- **Partial support for Chrome extensions** - Install some extensions directly from Chrome Web Store\* (see [#110](https://github.com/wexond/wexond/issues/110)) (WIP)
