Don’t you think browsing the web could be so much more aesthetic than the cluttered tabs you see in Chrome or Safari?
Horse Browser is a new web browser, designed for online research. As you browse, every link opens in a new page and is saved on a Trail, a list of nested pages stored in your sidebar. This means you can keep track of research and say goodbye to the messy tabs you’re used to. Its minimalist design makes your desktop look so much more aesthetic.
In this blog post, we’ll be sharing how to customise Horse Browser with custom emojis and icons. Not only will you improve the look of your browser, you can also categorise and organise your Trails with your own visual coding system.
