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.
