Web browser to help programmers think clearly

In plain words

Bonsai is a web browser designed specifically for programmers who want to maintain focus while browsing. Launched in 2021, it provides a streamlined interface that reduces distractions and helps developers think through problems more clearly. The browser caters to those who need to research documentation, reference code examples, and explore technical resources without the cognitive overhead of standard browsers. Its minimalist approach distinguishes it from conventional web browsers by prioritizing clarity and concentration over feature abundance.
