# AeroCore Browser
AeroCore Browser is a living-room browser designed for players using SteamOS or
a SteamOS-like gaming mode with a TV and game controller as their primary
setup. It lets you stay on the sofa: after finishing a game, you can exit it
with the controller, switch to the browser from Steam just like launching
another game, and open streaming and video services on the big screen—without
changing devices, picking up a mouse and keyboard, or searching for the TV
remote.
## Designed for the living room
- **Readable on large screens:** Websites are responsively sized for TVs of
52 inches and above, keeping text and controls recognizable from the typical
distance between a TV and the sofa.
- **Controller-first interaction:** Browser navigation maps to the habits and
muscle memory players already have from using a game controller in most
games, making it practical to browse and control web pages without a mouse
or keyboard.
This repository provides public releases of AeroCore Browser for Linux x86_64
systems, including SteamOS and compatible distributions. The primary audience
is users running SteamOS or a SteamOS-like gaming mode.
## Install
1. Open the [latest release](../../releases/latest).
2. Download the `AeroCore-Browser-x86_64.AppImage` file.
3. Run the AppImage:
```bash
./AeroCore-Browser-x86_64.AppImage
```
The AppImage opens the setup wizard. Follow the instructions to install AeroCore Browser for the current user.
## Updates
When a new release is available, download and run the latest AppImage again. The installer will detect the existing installation and offer an upgrade.
