This is a Python-powered web browser that allows users to surf the Internet easily with its simple navigation, bookmarking and security features.
Should you decide to make the switch to Python, it would not be overly difficult to construct a JavaScript to Python compiler. Python syntax is similar enough to JavaScript that the literal translation of JavaScript to Python should not pose any great difficulties. Additionally, Python can be made just as safe and secure as Java in terms of keeping hackers away from your computer.
Python offers several distinct advantages to the construction of a web browser. A Python-based browser would allow content developers to easily code C++ Extensions, especially when using Cython. Python-based browsers also permit content developers to access databases such as mySQL or SQL Server 2000/2005 directly from web content. They can also deploy compiled or encrypted Python code via an Egg or Zip file, and access any TCP/IP accessible resource directly from browser-based content.
Building a Python-based browser is not an overnight process, but it is possible and desirable given the available tools and techniques. As web-based content developers who are also Python developers, we find JavaScript cumbersome and slow compared to the work we can do with Python given the same level of development effort. Overall, we highly recommend FireSnake Browser to those who are interested in utilizing Python for their web browsing needs.
