The browser is named after the short story "Kazehakase" by the Japanese author Ango Sakaguchi; its literal meaning is "Dr. Wind" (a PhD rather than a medical doctor).

Features

Notable features include:

gollark: Yes, that's why I asked if they had used proprietary code.
gollark: Eh.
gollark: Well, yes, you could describe it that way, much as I could describe this (EDIT: the new one) as... a very rough and inaccurate simulation of a financial market vaguely tied to some memes.
gollark: Also, it doesn't seem to have been much of a proof of concept given that it ran for a while with many updates and lots of support.
gollark: So what's with the legal stuff? Are you binding *yourselves* to not share bits of it, or using some proprietary code?
