Chromium is the open source web browser project from which Google Chrome draws its source code.[3]
The Chromium Project takes its name from the element chromium, the metal from which chrome is made.[4] Google's intention, as expressed in the developer documentation, was that Chromium would be the name of the open source project and that the final product name would be Chrome.[5] However, other developers have taken the Chromium code and released versions under the Chromium name and these are listed at community builds.
One of the major aims of the project is for Chrome to be a tabbed window manager, or shell for the web, as opposed to it being a traditional browser application. The application is designed specifically to have a minimalist user interface. The developers state that it "should feel lightweight (cognitively and physically) and fast".[6]
