What is Chromium?

Chromium is an open-source browser platform that empowers developers to build customizable web browsing experiences. By compiling the Chromium source code, developers can create web browsers tailored to the unique needs of their users, prioritizing safety, speed, and stability across desktop and mobile devices. This flexibility enables a diverse ecosystem of Chromium-based browsers, each with the potential to optimize the web experience for specific audiences and use cases. With official builds available for Windows, macOS, GNU+Linux, and Android, as well as unofficial portable versions, the Chromium project democratizes access to a powerful, customizable browsing framework for users around the world
