Android Components > Samples > Browser

A simple browser app that is composed from the browser components in this repository.

⚠️ Note: This sample application is only a very basic browser. For a full-featured reference browser implementation see the reference-browser repository.

Build variants

The browser app uses a product flavor:

• channel: Using different release channels of GeckoView: nightly, beta, production. In most cases you want to use the nightly flavor as this will support all of the latest functionality.

Glean SDK support

This sample application comes with Glean SDK telemetry initialized by default, but with upload disabled (no data is being sent). This is for creating a simpler metric testing workflow for Gecko engineers that need to add their metrics to Gecko and expose them to Mozilla mobile products. See this bug for more context.

In order to enable data upload for testing purposes, change the Glean.setUploadEnabled(false) to Glean.setUploadEnabled(true) in SampleApplication.kt.

Glean will send metrics from any Glean-enabled component used in this sample application:

• engine-gecko-nightly;
• engine-gecko-beta;
• engine-gecko;

Data review for enabling the Glean SDK for this application can be found here.
