PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE! </3

T_T I wanna use this delicious browser! My RAM memory needs that.

@ryukinix note that since Oryoki is built over Chromium it technically doesn't use less memory than, e.g. Chrome. And I'm far from an expert in that area. Oryoki might be less greedy in RAM but that'd only be because of the interface design.

That said I'll be looking into a Linux version for sure - major milestone, lot of work, etc. Can't promise a timeline for that.

Thanks! Sorry for my comment. Take your time. Congratulations for all the minimalism!

@blittle @ryukinix @JacksonGariety meanwhile you can download the sources, build it, and run it from there. It's pretty easy, just install nodejs, npm on your linux box. Then sudo npm install -g gulp to install gulp globally. Then go to the oryoki repo directory you cloned and run gulp build then npm start and you'll have oryoki running on linux. Just beware that you need to make a small change to one of the source files: open src/js/main/CommandManager.js with a text editor and replace all instances of CmdOrCtrl+ with Ctrl+, otherwise the main keyboard shortcuts won't work.

Hope this helps while we wait for an official build =)
