Mobile browsers haven't changed their visual language in a decade: flat URL bar on top, flat navigation bar on the bottom. Inspired by speculative concept art of future iOS design, I wanted to see if I could build a working browser around refractive, organic liquid glass.

Replicating the look of fluid glass without killing mobile frame rates took extensive shader experimentation. The interface stacks custom backdrop blur filters, multi-layer specular highlights, and elastic spring transforms. As you scroll or move the floating URL pill, the browser chrome refracts and distorts the web page underneath like molten glass.

The app isn't just a static mockup. It features responsive tab management, swipe-to-switch tabs, and clean edge-to-edge web rendering. Open-sourced on GitHub as a technical showcase for what is possible with Flutter's rendering pipeline.
