Title: chromium for the terminal
Post by: vinceASPECT on December 14, 2025, 03:18:04 PM

Hello forum

are any TCL devs or forum members interested in making a package of this web browser?

https://github.com/fathyb/carbonyl

https://github.com/fathyb/carbonyl/releases/tag/v0.0.3

Carbonyl

i was thinking it will be good for low power devices like Raspberry Pi's or SBC's

i know there is already the free app called PUFFIN BROWSER which has a Debian port and gives great performance........

just wondered

thx

sorry forum

if you don't know, there is a REPO for using PUFFIN WEB BROWSER on Raspbery pi and low end boards like Pi zero to get good web browsing speed


it's here below....PUFFIN and 200 other apps are available in the Pi apps store free app.... on Raspberry pi's which are running the Raspberry pi OS.

https://github.com/ZhymabekRoman/Puffin-Browser-on-Linux

.....many of the Pi  APPS STORE of apps have an APP IMAGE file and the app in question will just  run in Linux ....so maybe  Puffin will even run on PiCORE  ARM by tinycore linux....

Pi apps store also has the FLOW web browser for very low powered devices.

....there is also a DEBIAN FILE of Puffine which i believe runs in Picore quite easily........you can use the DEMO VERSION which is completely functional and free.

thx

carbonyl needa a lot of RAM, like normal chromium web browser.
Puffin Browser is paid product.
FLOW is proprietary product only for RPi.
