The Browsh web browser represents web pages as text and can be run either from a terminal client environment or from a web browser. the web browser client remains less developed. It has been developed since 23 April 2016. It uses Go as a core part of its implementation. Browsh uses a headless version of Mozilla Firefox to fetch and parse web pages.
