Overview
Qup Zilla is a new and quick Qt Web Kit browser. It plans to be a lightweight web browser through all major platforms. This project has been originally opened only for educational purposes. But from its start, Qup Zilla has grown into a feature based browser. Qup Zilla has all standard functions we expect from a web browser. It involves bookmarks, history both also in sidebar and tabs. We can manage RSS feeds with an regarded RSS reader, block ads with a builtin Ad Block block Flash content with Click 2 Flash and edit the local CA Certificates database with an SSL Manager. Qup Zilla’s main intends is to be a very quick and very stable Qt Web Kit browser obtainable to everyone.
Details of Qup Zilla
Qup Zilla is a new and very quick lightweight. Qt Web Engine Browser.
To standard features, Qup Zilla proposes Qup Zilla looks well, serves pages well and renders them fast and and has some features that just about mantain to leverage a niche for it in a crowded market. The worst thing we can say about it is that it may have occasional stability issues. It had several crashes and a segmentation fault.
Features in Qup Zilla
Qup Zilla has two other features that other browsers emulate. The first is the ability to provide a screenshot of an full web page without the require for external tools. Save Page Screen is Qup Zilla’s name for it. Handy if we ever require to e-mail a whole page to a website admin to inoculate and highlight style and formatting errors. All browsers have a print function and Chrome has an good preview facility but they should imitate QupZilla’s. Other than not opening in full screen (you have to manually resize it) I can’t fault it Finally, Speed Dial. Firefox requires an addon for that but, like Opera, QupZilla has it baked in. It’s not highly configurable but you seem to be able to add an infinite number of speedials and a scroll bar will appear as he number grows so navigation is simple.
