Epiphany: The web browser for the GNOME desktop

What is Epiphany?

Epiphany is the web browser for the GNOME desktop. It aims to be simple and easy to use. Epiphany ties together many GNOME components to give you the most transparent browsing experience possible.

Features

Security

Epiphany shows you clearly if the information you enter on a webpage is transmitted securely.

Tabbed browsing

With tabs, you can easily group multiple pages within one window. This makes it easier to organize related webpages on your computer screen.

Smart bookmarks

Smart bookmarks make it a snap to lookup text in online knowledge bases (like dictionaries or search engines). Also, with Epiphany, you don't have to keep track of in which subfolder you put that one bookmark -- just assign it some topic(s) and Epiphany will show you the relevant bookmarks in a dropdown menu.

Extensions and plugins

Need some specialized browser function that's not available in the default menus? There's a good chance someone has already written an extension for you. Installing extensions is a matter of simply downloading foo to bar...

You should get Epiphany from your distribution, but if you can't find it there or are looking for the latest you might be able to get it here.
