I don't see many people speaking about code they find good. I'd appreciate this. Pointing out bad code is usual, but good ones?
My comment may seem exagerated but that retranscribes very well how I felt when I discovered this code. Often, I'm overwhelmed by the code tree of medium to big-sized projects, with many abstractions and complicated folder structures. This is a browser and yet it was easy to figure out where to find the parts I was interested in and to understand what the code did.
Now, one can always find problems and discuss about the lack of gotos or arrays, but if as a complete outsider I can navigate and understand the code, and even feel that I could hack it quite easily with no documentation, something must be right with it.
I'm not in any way connected to the project, I don't even use this browser (sadly, it is too impractical).
