The Browser Company introduces the new Arc browser, which is aiming to function as the web's operating system first and foremost. The foundation on which it is built stems from a range of tools that make it easy for users to control their apps and content. This includes turning tabs around and bookmarking content including app launchers.
It also helps with building platform-wide apps on its own and is essentially much more independent and complicated than an average browser. It shares the same feature which is the row of tabs at the top of the screen but understands that it is not fixed when it comes to user consumption. It is endlessly possible to alter around and create something new.
