Title: NetSurf for OPENSTEP
Post by: turbolent on May 25, 2026, 09:58 PM
I took some time to get an OPENSTEP-compatible frontend for NetSurf working.

You can find the fork at https://github.com/turbolent/netsurf-openstep. Building requires several dependencies, which are available via https://github.com/turbolent/openstep-pkg

Getting another browser working on OPENSTEP has been a holy grail for decades. It's fun writing web pages like we're stuck in 1997 but damn, this is amazing work. :) The vintage Mach world will never be the same!

I'm pleased to report that it compiles and runs for me. It's a bit heavy, but still usable, on 86box. For the VirtualBox users, you should be golden.
