<p>Before building GrapheneOS, you need to build Vanadium for the WebView and
|
||||
<em>optionally</em> the standalone browser app. Vanadium is a hardened fork of
|
||||
Chromium developed and used by GrapheneOS. It needs to be rebuilt when Chromium is
|
||||
updated or the GrapheneOS <code>Vanadium</code> patches are changed.</p>
|

<p>Vanadium is a hardened fork of Chromium developed by GrapheneOS and used to provide
|
||||
the WebView and <em>optionally</em> the standalone browser app. It tracks the Chromium
|
||||
release cycles along with having additional updates for downstream changes to the
|
||||
privacy and security hardening patches, so it's updated at a different schedule than
|
||||
the monthly Android releases.</p>
|

|

<p>Chromium and the WebView are independent applications built from the Chromium
|
||||
source tree. The GrapheneOS Chromium build is located at external/vanadium and
|
||||
includes the WebView.</p>
