Minimal by design
Every feature has to earn its place. If it doesn’t help you get things done, it doesn’t ship.
About
A calmer way to browse.
Peppermint is a browser for people who want less noise and more done. Quality of life, looks and performance on top of a solid Firefox base.
Our mission
All you need to get things done. Nothing more, nothing less.
Modern browsers have become cluttered: endless toolbars, telemetry, sponsored shortcuts and interfaces that fight for your attention. We think the browser should get out of your way.
Peppermint started as a fork of Zen Browser. We loved its calm, vertical-tab interface and wanted to push it further with thoughtful quality-of-life features, a more consistent design and extra care for performance, without piling on bloat.
Underneath, it is still Firefox: a mature engine, a huge extension ecosystem and a strong stance on the open web.
What we stand for
Private by default
No telemetry, no studies, no sponsored shortcuts. Hardened defaults, so privacy is not a settings hunt.
Fast everywhere
Lean builds, off-main-thread work and idle-tab unloading keep the browser light on every machine.
Open and honest
Peppermint is free software under the MPL-2.0. Read the code, fork it, send a patch.
