Installing miniature browser

Hello. I have usually been using min browser. This is the best browser for me. It is fast, low on memory, doesn't stall the system and almost has enough features. Min browser is based on electron if i recall correctly. Everything is swell except that min browser is lacking in a couple features, most notably in remembering passwords...

So i find another browser based on the same framework and possibly just as good but with more features: minature browser(as opposed to min browser), however i cannot get it to work! Now, im ignorant of these frameworks and how they work and how to compile and stuff and don't have time to aquaint myself with it. Is there anyone here that can get it to work and can tell me how because right now iv'e tried a bunch of stuff with no success. If you help me I will make a pkgbuild if i can understand the steps neccessary and like the browser. Right now it looks very promising:

Thank you!

Re: Installing miniature browser

I modified the official 'min' pkgbuild file and it builds, but I haven't tried anything past that.
Anyway, here's the pkgbuild file if someone wants to play with it further.

Re: Installing miniature browser

Thank you. It built but i had to uninstall nodejs-grunt first. Upon launching all i get is a non-responsive UI though. I remember reading something about the ui being hardcoded and that could be what im seeing, i thought that they meant that the gui wouldnt be modifiable with that statement though.

If thats the culprit i suppose we will just have to wait and see if they ever release something functional. If that is not the issue i am also getting this error on cmdline:

(electron:19476): Gdk-WARNING **: gdkwindow-x11.c:5573 drawable is not a native X11 window
ATTENTION: option value of option force_s3tc_enable ignored.
