Chromium is the open source web browser project from which Google Chrome draws its source code.

It was designed to provide for all users a safer, faster, and more stable way to experience the web.

Chromium is a tabbed window manager or shell for the internet rather than a browser application. The project has avoided putting unnecessary things into the User Interface in an attempt to make a more intuitive, user-friendly experience.

The tab is the equivalent of a desktop application's title bar; the frame containing the tabs is a convenient mechanism for managing groups of those applications. In future, there may be other tab types that do not host the standard browser toolbar.

Chromium is a speedy and efficient browser that uses search as its primary form of navigation. This process simplifies the way you access personal content and the web. It also offers enhanced functionality through HTML 5, offline modes, background processing, notifications, and more.
