Cobalt isn't a great fit for general-purpose web browsing because it only supports a subset of HTML--lots of websites would appear broken. It's really meant for webapps you've designed with Cobalt in mind.

- scrollaway 4y agoThat… sounds absolutely amazing. Very specific purpose yes but wow, the amount of times I've needed a stripped down HTML engine that doesn't suck. I suspect this could make an excellent renderer for an app doing markdown previews, CHM files, ebooks and such for example.

- Animats 4y agoCan you get Cobalt to return an error status "HTML outside of supported subset - need full browser", for applications where you need a fast-launching embedded browser? Is there some tool for evaluating pages for "will they run in Cobalt"? I can see uses for this if you can do that. If you can't, it's limited to sites designed for it.
