The rest of Chromium is primarily UI and network code, along with their sandboxing system and extensions - WebKit&amp;#x27;s &amp;quot;ports&amp;quot; have their own implementation of said network code tying into the framework that they&amp;#x27;re porting to (GTK+ or Qt, usually), and all three browsers you list use the WebKitGTK+ port.&lt;p&gt;uzbl, the one I&amp;#x27;ve used the most, primarily consists of a pile of code to map callbacks to a protocol on stdin&amp;#x2F;stdout, and a handful of example scripts to communicate over that protocol - it&amp;#x27;s certainly no more &amp;quot;from scratch&amp;quot; or smaller than any other WebKit-based browser.&lt;p&gt;I expect that the other two similarly focus on UI code rather than pointlessly fiddling with WebKitGTK+&amp;#x27;s internals - how are they not just skins (albeit of WebKitGTK+, not Chromium) as well?</text></comment>
