Epiphany (Web Browser)Epiphany is a web browser for the GNOME computer desktop. It is one of a family of web browsers that use the Gecko layout engine from the Mozilla project to display web pages. It provides a GNOME integrated front-end to Gecko, instead of the Mozilla XUL interface. Like many Gecko-based browsers, Epiphany supports tabbed browsing, cookie management, popup blocking and an extensions system. Whilst most browsers feature a hierarchical folder-based bookmark system, Epiphany uses categorised bookmarks, where a single bookmark (such as "Epiphany") can exist in multiple categories (such as "Web Browsers", "Gnome", and "Computer Software"). Special categories include bookmarks that have been used frequently ("Most Frequent") and bookmarks that have not yet been categorised. Another innovative concept supported by Epiphany (though originally from Galeon) is "Smart Bookmarks". These take a single argument specified from the address bar or from a textbox in a toolbar. Epiphany was developed from Galeon by Marco Pesenti Gritti (also the initiator of Galeon) with the aim of making a fully GNOME HIG compliant web browser and a very simple user experience.
