Journey is a JCEF-powered cross-platform web browser created to address a need for an open-source JxBrowser alternative. No attempt has been made to go feature-to-feature with JxBrowser. Journey namely aims to provide the same level of cross-platform capability. This is accomplished by providing a reliable means of building and distributing the CEF native files with Travis-CI/AppVeyor, JitPack, and GitHub.
Issues/PRs are welcome for increasing the capability of Journey to be on par with that of JxBrowser.
- Linux (64bit) support
- macOS (64bit) support
- Windows (32bit/64bit) support
- Release distributions (CDN via GitHub)
- Online/offline CEF native file access
