Keep -in mind that simple does not necessarily mean less powerful. We believe -the commonly used browsers of today are too big, buggy, and bloated.

The UNIX -philosophy is to design small tools that do one thing, and do it well. - -Epiphany also address simplicity with modularity to make a light and powerful -application.
