sheaf

A very simple web browser. Inspired by suckless' surf, but built on electron. Ironically, this makes it suck a lot from suckless's perspective.

Ideal for when you want a simple browser in a restrictive environment, as this was built to fit on the University of Edinburgh's DICE system.

sheaf supports sending pages to Firefox, when you want to use a more fully-featured browser.
