Watching YouTube inside Emacs 25, with a complete Webkit-based web browser

2 pointsby tuhdoalmost 9 years ago
The upcoming Emacs 25 include a real web browse based on Webkit, thanks to the addition of xwidget. You can now have a real web browser inside Emacs, and it renders fast, too! Here are some demos:<p>- Browsing Youtube in Emacs: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;T5efpL0.gifv<p>- Watching Youtube in Emacs: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;KsLQxNC.gifv<p>- Open Github in Emacs: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;QhVYPkp.png<p>- Open Google in Emac: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;fIItEpu.png<p>- Open both: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;ku1dFuS.png<p>Aside from watching youtube, these are some of prime use cases:<p>- Combine with helm-dash to open HTML document for symbol at point: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;IcIo6af.gif<p>- Combine with helm-google-suggestet: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;2rTQeiG.gifv<p>Just to show how useful this feature is, consider this demo of using `helm-dash` with EWW, previous web browser in Emacs 24: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;G7pzDZN.gifv<p>But, that does not mean Eww is useless. It&#x27;s still useful for web browsing within a terminal.
