![usage example](./images/example.png)

rism is a minimalistic single-page browser based on tauri, using your platform's native webview.  

It accepts some CLI arguments and displays a web page, that's about it. You can use it to window-ify any website, allowing it to live outside your browser. rism also supports setting a custom title, which allows it to easily be matched by window managers.

This project is considered feature-complete.

## Features

- Displays a website

- Smallish binary

- Pure CLI configuration
