Is there more information about how the browser works? Looking on various browser ID sites, it seems to suggest it's a Chrome based (138.0.0.0) browser running atop Arm based Linux with X11.

As far as I can see it´s using CEF (Chromium Embedded) on Linux side, so it catches Events on Amiga side, sends it via ARM library to Linux and the Linux side sends the rendered Page back to Amiga ...

Guess in reality it´s a bit more complex but I think that´s the base mechanism :)
