Darkelf Shadow v0.1.0-nightly

Nightly
PySide6 Rewrite — Linux & Windows

Highlights

  • Tab isolation + hardened sandbox (PySide6 / QtWebEngine rewrite)
  • Request interception via QWebEngineUrlRequestInterceptor + injection-based mitigation
  • Non-persistent: cookies, cache, and history wiped on shutdown
  • No WebRTC — no downloads, no bookmarks (by design)
  • Disk writes capped to a strict folder; full wipe on shutdown
