Exokit Browser: Javascript web browser for AR, VR, and Magic Leap

exokit zeovr.io # run WebGL/VR/AR site

Exokit Browser is a brand new, fast, post-screen era web browser written in JavaScript. If a WebGL site runs in Chrome, it will probably run twice as fast in Exokit.

Exokit is a full HTML5 web browser, written as a node.js module. For VR, AR, and WebGL sites, Exokit can do everything a browser can do.

It's plain OpenGL and standard libraries under the hood, so it plays nice with Windows, Linux, macOS, and even Magic Leap!

About Exokit Browser

Exokit can't render HTML, but it can draw Canvas and WebGL -- natively, and fast -- as well as take keyboard/mouse/mixed reality input with the regular APIs. It's a browser for the post-(2D) world.

Think JSDOM, except it actually runs the DOM in a window. Or think Electron, except 300k and no compile step. Or, think an emulator for running web sites.

The multimedia parts (e.g. WebGL) are pluggable native modules. Everything else is Javascript. It's pretty easy to experiment and add new Web APIs.

Exokit runs on Android/iOS, as well as Windows, Linux, and macOS.

FAQ

Why?

The web is important. The most important part of the web is that it's open. The web is not open if you need to be a genius to build a web browser.

Despite modern browsers being nominally open source, their code is impenetrable. You've probably never compiled a web browser, and almost certainly never added things. Despite the amount of time you spend in a browser.

With Exokit, anyone can write some Javascript to control their experience of the web.
