Package details

Summary: Cross-platform Qt Web Browser based on QtWebEngine

Description:
Falkon is a new KDE web browser, previously known as QupZilla.
Following this release, there will only be one last final QupZilla
release.

Falkon is a new and very fast QtWebEngine browser. It aims to be a lightweight
web browser available through all major platforms. This project has been
originally started only for educational purposes. But from its start, Falkon
has grown into a feature-rich browser.

Falkon has all standard functions you expect from a web browser. It includes
bookmarks, history (both also in sidebar) and tabs. Above that, you can manage
RSS feeds with an included RSS reader, block ads with a builtin AdBlock plugin,
block Flash content with Click2Flash and edit the local CA Certificates
database with an SSL Manager.

Falkon's main aim is to be a very fast and very stable QtWebEngine browser
available to everyone. There are already a lot of QtWebEngine browsers available,
but they are either bound to the KDE environment (rekonq), are not actively
developed or very unstable and miss important features. But there is missing
a multiplatform, modern and actively developed browser. Falkon is trying
to fill this gap by providing a very stable browsing experience.

If you were previously using QupZilla, you can manually migrate
your profiles to Falkon by moving the config directory (usually
in ~/.config/qupzilla/).
There is no automatic migration.
