WOW! I never saw that project before. It looks cool, but i can't
compile it under windows.. If it looks as neat as the screenshots then
i'm certainly hoping on that browser to become a chrome alternative :)
It's also very nice to see my QShortcut wrapper for QML (Shortcut
class) being used in there though it's modified quite a bit in there.

Really interesting stuff!
Do you happen to know more Qt5 projects like this?
