SlaydX is a next-generation web browser built from the ground up for power users. While modern browsers have become bloated and restrictive, SlaydX prioritizes a "no-skip" feature philosophy: if a power user needs it, we build it.
Built using Node.js, Electron, and React, SlaydX combines the raw power of the Chromium engine with a highly customizable, modern UI.
- Core Foundation: Robust session persistence and crash recovery.
- Pro Tab Management: Tab grouping, pinning, and "Sleep Mode" to save RAM.
- Omnibox Commands: Use the address bar to trigger browser actions (e.g.,
set:theme dark). - Privacy Shield: Built-in tracking protection and third-party block controls.
- Extensibility: A dedicated framework for custom add-ons and UI themes.
- Internal Protocols: Fast access to
slaydx://settings,slaydx://extensions, and more.
