          <strong>Browsh is a fully-modern text-based browser.</strong> It renders
          anything that a modern browser can; HTML5, CSS3, JS, video and even WebGL.
          Its main purpose is to be run on a remote server and accessed via SSH/Mosh
          or the in-browser HTML service in order to significantly reduce bandwidth and thus both
          increase browsing speeds and decrease bandwidth costs.

          Browsh is available as a single static binary on all major platforms.
          The only dependency is a recent 57+ version of Firefox.
          <br />
          <a href="/downloads">Latest version</a> |
          <a href="https://github.com/browsh-org/browsh/releases">Releases archive</a>
          <br />
          <small>
          A Docker image is also
          available: <br/> <code>docker run -it browsh/browsh</code>
          </small>

          <h2>Live SSH Demo</h2>
          <strong>Temporarily offline</strong>
          <div style="opacity: 0.4">
            Just point your SSH client to <em>brow.sh</em>, eg;
            <code>ssh brow.sh</code>. No auth needed. The service
            is for demonstration only, sessions last 5 minutes and are logged.<br />
            <small>
              Note that SSH is actually a very inefficient protocol, for best results install
              Browsh on your own server along with <a href="https://mosh.org/">Mosh</a>.

                Uses very basic graphics and HTML anchor tags.
                <small>Although this service may appear similar to the terminal client it does not yet have feature parity.</small>
