Arora is a discontinued free and open-source web browser developed by Benjamin C. Meyer. [2] [3] [4] [5] It was available for Linux , Mac OS X , Windows , FreeBSD , OS/2 , Haiku , [6] Genode , and any other operating system supported by the Qt toolkit . The browser's features included tabbed browsing, bookmarks, browsing history, smart location bar, OpenSearch , session management, privacy mode , a download manager , WebInspector, and AdBlock. [7]

Meyer discontinued development of Arora due to strictures of non-compete clauses by his employer. [8] Another software developer, Bastien Pederencino, forked Arora's source code, and published a variant called zBrowser – renamed Zeromus Browser in February 2013. Later in 2013, Pederencino published another variant called BlueLightCat. In 2014, some new patches were released on Arora's project page on GitHub , with some Linux distributions incorporating the changes in their individual versions of Arora packages in their repositories. [9] In 2020, Arora was forked again by another developer, Aaron Dewes, and a variant named "Endorphin Browser" was published, with the goal of modernizing Arora and adding new features. [10]
