Tested on Linux

screen from firefox https://github.com/jelspace/browser.c/blob/main/Screenshot%20from%202025-01-05%2009-01-29.png

type in terminal: git clone https://github.com/jelspace/browser.c

enter dir: cd browser.c

compile with: ./compile.sh or ./make ("./make" is different than "make")

then create video dir: mkdir videos

and run 'browser': ./browser

You can install missing libraries using your package manager (e.g., apt on Debian/Ubuntu, dnf on Fedora). For example:

sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 libgtk-3-0 libgstreamer1.0-0
