Wayfarer 1.5 is now available

This version introduces several important features like a startup loader that will show splash windows as the app starts and quits. It will also catch and clean up if the web browser crashes, in most cases making it possible to re-start the application.

An Eruda web console is now integrated in the debug menu. Eruda makes it possible to view the DOM structure of a website, monitor its resources, view and delete cookies and issue commands via the console or a code editor and more. Several plugins are also available and may be loaded on-demand to maintain browsing performance.

Moreover, it is now possible to start Wayfarer from a pre-saved session file or to make automatically restore the previous session.

Wayfarer, a new web browser based on a modern mid-2020 branch of WebKit is now available for download from wayfarer.icu. This new app makes it possible to browse most of the web that have become off-limits for Odyssey with its ageing engine. Google apps like Docs, Drive and Maps with Street view are supported just as the Whatsapp or Telegram web interfaces.

Wayfarer will work on any machine running the brand new MorphOS 3.14 with at least 1GB of RAM. A 1.5GHz or faster CPU is recommended.

This port has been made possible by the concerted effort of the MorphOS developers, the MorphOS beta testers, translators and all of the users who donated to the project.
