You can call it lynx all day long, but it won't be lynx in the Ubuntu repositories as that name is taken, and as you can see above, there are no duplicates.
Name collisions are so common that the guidelines tell us not to talk about them. Why would you assume that this is intentional? And then the rest of your post is just about different tui browsers? How is this the top comment?
The kids who built this are probably younger than the Lynx project and likely don't know it exists.
I would have stolen a name like Transmission, or Bing instead.
And has done (in various forms) since at least 2001!
- All ByteDance products, even native apps, are web-based
- They have an in-house framework called "Lynx" which is essentially their version of React Native[1]
- "All apps are Lynx apps. Everything is a Lynx app. It's all backed off the same stack."
- This approach allows them to maintain a unified architecture while having specialized teams focus on different aspects (algorithms, compiler, kernel, etc.)

[1]: The one being released, in the podcast they confirmed they would be open-sourcing it this year
What I assumed from the podcast is that there's a lot of internal reusable tools in C++, and the web-based stuff is mostly about the UI layer.
Is there a lot of WASM to use both at the same time?
Any mobile app designers out there think TikTok has good UX? I mean scrolling video is great, but everything else?
You wouldn't ask a doctor if she thinks crack is great, right?
Compared to Instagram, where the web version has always been behind the mobile version, TikTok really seems to make each device version the best possible.
> Lynx Explorer is a sandbox for trying out Lynx quickly.
And then it asks me to use either the iOS Simulator or the Android Simulator, which based on experience, neither are made for anything resembling "quickly".
Anyone know if there are any "pure-web" instructions around? Skimmed around the docs, website and repository but didn't find anything that looked like it was made for just web setup.
It's not adb / avd or some device emulator. It's an app that you install on your device, and then it can load your app from your development device using a link. I was able to run it in 5 minutes without having android studio or any other android development kits on my laptop.
Despite distrusting Google and despite knowing react I chose flutter.
I want something fast with close to total cross platform compatibility.
Net Maui is not well spoken of. React native seems slow.
The only real choice fir my needs is flutter.
Let’s see how long it holds up.

As far as I can tell, it has the same model, at least judging by the directory names (web-worker-runtime, web-worker-rpc, web-mainthread-apis, etc).
I can't wait for a more technical deep dive into how this works and compares to react native.
`readonly platform: 'Android' | 'iOS' | 'macOS' | 'pc' | 'headless';`
> Not only is the core engine of Lynx framework-agnostic, but it's also agnostic to host platforms and rendering backends ... expand to even more platforms, such as Desktop, TV, or IoT devices.
I think this could be huge! I'd love to see a SolidJS version
Flutter apps don't scroll at 30/60fps on my aging Mate 20 Pro, but that website is fine for me in Chrome.
Sadly I finally ditched my MacBook for a Linux PC since Expo/EAS has liberated me from needing Xcode. I won’t be able to try this out for iOS development.
Or could someone ELI5 / TL;DR? The whole blog post is basically saying how good Lynx is and what problem it solves without telling me much technical details.
Can you also explain what the advantages are over React Native?
I'm not even in the anti-LLM crowd, but that sentence made me shake my head in disgust
