Operating system
Windows 10/11 64-bit and Linux x64 (AppImage) are the current published desktop platforms.
System requirements
Plan the machine for your real browser workload.
Social Browser currently supports Windows 10/11 64-bit and Linux x64 via AppImage. Hardware demand scales with active Profiles, tabs, websites, extensions and automation concurrency, so the page separates confirmed support from practical sizing guidance.
Supported environment
Confirmed platform requirements
These are product facts, not guessed hardware minimums.
Browser engine
The current product is Chromium/Electron based and exposes Chromium DevTools for developers.
Network
Normal internet access is required for websites, updates and any external proxy or connected service you choose to use.
Performance sizing
Capacity depends on how many Profiles you run
A browser Profile consumes CPU, memory, GPU and disk like a real Chromium workspace. There is no single honest RAM number that fits one idle Profile and dozens of concurrent automated Profiles.
| Resource | What affects it | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| Memory | Number of active Profiles, tabs, websites and extensions | Size for your peak concurrent workload; do not size only for stored Profile count. |
| CPU | Active rendering, automation, video, page scripts | More concurrency needs more CPU headroom. |
| Storage | Profile caches, downloads, browser data, backups | Use an SSD and maintain free space for active Profile data. |
| GPU | Rendering, video and site graphics | Use current graphics drivers; remote/VPS environments should expose a stable graphics stack. |
Development
Developer requirements
Most users need only the browser. Developers may additionally use the built-in local integration surfaces.
Browser API / CDP
External clients connect to the local debugging/API endpoint shown by Social Browser.
