For example, initial setup will launch Firefox for `meet.google.com` and Safari for the rest of links.\n\n2 types of rules are set up in `plist` file - hostnames list and substrings list to match in opened URL. Also there are settings for default and alternative browsers.\n\nThere is no UI or easy way to extend rule set - but you can update Swift code and recompile for yourself. For other fully-featured solutions, check [alternatives](#alternatives) section.\n\n## Installation\n\n* Download dmg from [releases page](https://github.com/ealeksandrov/BrowserPicker/releases/latest);\n* Or clone this repo and build it from source;\n* Run app at least once;\n* Set `BrowserPicker.app` as default web browser in `System Preferences` -\u003e `General`.\n\n### Rules setup\n\n* Open `BrowserPicker.app/Contents/Resources/Config.plist` and setup desired browsers and rules;\n* For advanced users - manually update `launchBrowser(for:)` function in `AppDelegate.swift` (rebuilt from source needed).\n\n## Alternatives\n\n* [Choosy](https://www.choosyosx.com)\n* [Browser Fairy](http://www.browserfairy.com)\n\n## Author\n\nCreated and maintained by Evgeny Aleksandrov ([@ealeksandrov](https://twitter.com/ealeksandrov)).\n\n## License\n\n`Browser Picker` is available under the MIT license.
