This is the first entry in what I hope will be a useful and ongoing chronicle of my journey into Chromium development. Also, this is my first time writing an online blog! I plan to publish multiple posts on different topics, all revolving around Chromium.
The main reason I started using dev.to is that I wanted a place to document the different aspects of Chromium I’ve worked on so that valuable insights don’t fade with time. Chromium is a massive, complex project, and the learning curve can be steep. By writing things down, I can solidify my own understanding and create a reference I can return to later.
Beyond that, I secretly hope to find a community where we can discuss these topics and share our thoughts.
Additionally, writing posts like these pushes me out of my comfort zone and makes me try things I don’t usually do—like expressing myself through words to other people. I never realized how hard writing is...
Here are some topics I plan to cover in future posts:
- Rebranding Chromium
- Pre-bundle extensions for Chromium
- Implementing custom web UIs
These are areas I’ve recently worked on, and I want to make notes on while the thought are still fresh. I’ve been working with Chromium for over four years now, so in the future, I may dive into more complex topics and specific aspects of the Chromium codebase.
If you're interested in browser development, open-source contributions, or just the inner workings of one of the most widely used browsers in the world, I hope you’ll find something valuable here.
This is just the beginning—stay tuned!
