Zen

Zen is a web browser that emphasizes a clean visual design while prioritizing user privacy. It is released under an open‑source license and offered at no cost, aiming to provide a straightforward, privacy‑centric alternative to mainstream browsers.

The browser includes productivity‑focused features such as Workspaces, which let users group tabs by project and switch between groups easily; Compact Mode, which hides the tab bar to free screen space when it is not needed; Glance, a quick‑access view of frequently used tabs; and Split View, which displays two pages side‑by‑side for comparison or multitasking. These tools are intended to reduce distraction and help users stay focused on their tasks.

Zen’s core values stress a balance between aesthetics, performance, and privacy, and the project is maintained with community support and sponsorship. It is positioned as a stable, feature‑rich utility for users who want a visually appealing, private browsing experience without unnecessary complexity.
