About the Developer

Greg de J, a French developer living in Tokyo, designed and built Quiche Browser for himself out of love for minimal interfaces, and tired of the decades-old browser conventions no one dares challenge.

Greg has ditched all other browsers from his phone since then.

After writing JavaScript at Google for 5 years, Greg left to become an iOS developer.
Before Quiche Browser, he made Quiche Reader (formerly Reading Queue), a minimal read-later app featured twice on Lifehacker.

Why "Quiche"

Quiches are delicious, adorable pies.
Quiche also means "a bit stupid" in French.
Greg used to organize "quiche parties" with fellow French expats in Tokyo.
(At some point we thought about starting a cult.)
