Install notes

Before you run an alpha build.

01 / Understand the status

This is not stable software.

Alpha builds can contain bugs, incomplete UI and behaviour that changes between releases. Use the package for testing rather than treating it as a finished replacement for your existing browser.

02 / Known broken features

Search + themes.

The default search-engine and theme features are currently bugged/broken in this alpha installation. Other behaviour may also be unfinished.

03 / What to test

Try the edges.

Tabs, Undercover mode, bookmarks, privacy blocking, Inspector, downloads, SPUD, shortcuts and special URLs are all useful areas for testing.

04 / Reporting

Write down the repro.

Record the version, OS, steps, expected result and actual result. Reproducible reports make alpha testing much more useful.
