rekonq is a lightweight, QtWebKit-based web browser developed inside the free software project KDE. It is the default web browser in Kubuntu 10.10[5][6] and Chakra GNU/Linux.[7][8] rekonq has been officially included into KDE Extragear the 2010-05-25.[9] In contrast to Konqueror, which has been KDE's main web browser for years, rekonq aims to be a standalone and simple web browser. Its code was initially based on Qt Development Frameworks' QtDemoBrowser and currently is developed on KDE Projects' Git repository.[10]
Features
rekonq integrates well into the KDE desktop, e.g. downloading files through KDE download system, sharing bookmarks with Konqueror, KIO support, etc. rekonq possesses most of the features of a modern web browser, specifically:
- Tabbed browsing
- Unique loading address bar
- Ad blocker
- Support for plugins (Flash, Java)
- Proxy support
rekonq uses the WebKit HTML rendering engine (the same engine used in Safari and Google Chrome), so there are few rendering problems with most websites. For the same reason, rekonq performs well in compatibility tests such as Acid tests.[11]
