It adds new APIs for building hostless applications while remaining compatible with the rest of the Web.

(You might try [windows-build-tools](https://www.npmjs.com/package/windows-build-tools).) Then run:\n\n```powershell\nnpm config set python c:/python27\nnpm config set msvs_version 2017\nnpm install -g node-gyp\nnpm install -g gulp\n```\n\nTo build:\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/beakerbrowser/beaker.git\ncd beaker/scripts\nnpm install # don't worry about v8 api errors building native modules - rebuild will fix\nnpm run rebuild # needed after each install. see https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/5851\nnpm start\n```\n\nIf you pull latest from the repo and get weird module errors, do:\n\n```bash\nnpm run burnthemall\n```\n\nThis invokes [the mad king](http://nerdist.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/the-mad-king-game-of-thrones.jpg), who will torch your `node_modules/`, and do the full install/rebuild process for you.\n(We chose that command name when GoT was still cool.)\n`npm start` should work afterward.\n\nIf you're doing development, `npm run watch` to have assets build automatically.\n\n## [Documentation](https://docs.beakerbrowser.com)\n\n### Env Vars\n\n- `DEBUG`: which log systems to output? A comma-separated string. Can be `beaker`, `dat`, `bittorrent-dht`, `dns-discovery`, `hypercore-protocol`. Specify `*` for all.\n- `BEAKER_OPEN_URL`: open the given URL on load, rather than the previous session or default tab.\n- `BEAKER_USER_DATA_PATH`: override the user-data path, therefore changing where data is read/written. Useful for testing. For default value see `userData` in the [electron docs](https://electron.atom.io/docs/api/app/#appgetpathname).\n- `BEAKER_DAT_QUOTA_DEFAULT_BYTES_ALLOWED`: override the default max-quota for bytes allowed to be written by a dat site. Useful for testing. Default value is `'500mb'`. This can be a Number or a String. Check [bytes.parse](https://github.com/visionmedia/bytes.js/tree/a4b9af2bf289175f12b3538eb172f2489844b1ec#bytesparsestringnumber-value-numbernull) for supported units and abbreviations.\n\n## Vulnerability disclosure\n\nSee [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md) for reporting security issues and vulnerabilities.\n\n## Known issues\n\n### tmux\n\nLaunching from tmux is known to cause issues with GUI apps in macOS. On Beaker, it may cause the application to hang during startup.\n\n## Contributors\n\nThis project exists thanks to all the people who contribute.
