Description

Vimb is a nimble and efficient web browser inspired by Vim, utilizing the WebKit engine and GTK toolkit to enhance user experience. Emulating the modal nature of the beloved Vim editor, Vimb allows for easy real-time customization to suit individual preferences. Designed primarily for keyboard navigation, it minimizes distractions, enabling users to focus on their tasks. Those who are accustomed to Vim or have prior experience with pentadactyl will find Vimb to be intuitive and user-friendly; however, those unfamiliar may find it challenging. Vimb offers a range of features, including the ability to visualize certain runtime settings and manage website access to the notification API. Its keybindings, reminiscent of Vim, can be customized for various browser modes, making it a versatile option for users. The browser supports nearly all configurations to be modified on-the-fly using Vim-like syntax, streamlining the user experience. Additionally, it maintains a history of executed commands, search queries, and visited URLs, ensuring easy access to past actions. Vimb also provides autocompletions for commands, bookmarked URLs, setting variable names, and search queries, enhancing efficiency. Furthermore, it includes hinting to highlight links, form fields, and other interactive elements, making navigation seamless. SSL validation is performed against the CA certificate file, ensuring secure connections, and users can create personalized URL shortcuts for convenience. Ultimately, Vimb stands out as a unique tool for those who appreciate a keyboard-centric browsing experience.

Description

Configuration is fully managed at runtime through the herbstclient tool, meaning that the configuration file essentially acts as a startup script. Users can make changes to configuration settings, window rules, virtual desktops, and keybindings in real time, eliminating the necessity to restart the window manager. Each virtual desktop, referred to as a tag, comprises both a tiling layer and a floating layer, where windows in the tiling layer occupy the entire screen space while floating windows can be positioned freely on top. Furthermore, all monitors utilize the same collection of tags, enabling users to swap the content of two monitors with just a single keystroke. This seamless interaction enhances the overall user experience by allowing for quick adjustments and multitasking capabilities.
