Just for awareness, this project is heavily vibe/agemtically coded:
github.com/nordstjernen-web/northstar-browser
Claude is the primary contributor, making most of the commits. I usually see it as the co-author, but for this project, it is the sole author of most commits.
Make of it what you will.

Sections of code written by AI cannot be copyrighted, as such I assume the GPL cannot apply to those. Knowing what is copyrighted, and what it not, may be difficult to tell. As far as I know.

The browser feels vibecoded. It kinda works but it is PISS FUCKING SLOW with a massive memory leak. The page formatting works most of the time, but it breaks on the most random ass shit. It feels like in the 5 minutes of using this browser I have tested it more then the actual “”“devs”“”.
