FAQ

Is Marshall a fork of Firefox/Chromium?

No. Marshall is built from scratch using Rust with GTK3 for the UI and WebKitGTK for rendering. It's a completely independent browser.

Why Rust?

Memory safety without garbage collection. Rust prevents entire classes of bugs (buffer overflows, use-after-free) that plague C/C++ browsers.

Does Marshall support extensions?

Not yet. Extension support is planned for v2.0. Currently, privacy features are built-in.

How does Tor integration work?

Marshall connects to a local Tor SOCKS5 proxy. You need Tor installed separately (sudo apt install tor). Marshall then routes selected tabs through the Tor circuit.

Can I import bookmarks?

Yes. File > Import Bookmarks supports:

  • Firefox (JSON, HTML)
  • Chromium (HTML)
  • Safari (HTML)
  • Netscape Bookmark format

What platforms are supported?

  • Linux (primary target) — x86_64, ARM64
  • macOS — experimental
  • Windows — not yet supported

How do I report a security vulnerability?

Email security@nullsec.dev or open a private security advisory on GitHub.
