Issue
I would like to use the "Brave" browser to view my html projects but netbeans only let me link with Chrome and the Microsoft browsers. I have downloaded the connector extension.
Solution
Configuring a NetBeans web application to run in Brave is a three step process:
Step 1 of 3:
Locate the full path to brave.exe for your Brave installation.
- On my Windows 10 machine it is
C:\Users\johndoe\AppData\Local\Brave\Brave.exe, but obviously your path will be different.
Step 2 of 3:
Add Brave to the list of browsers that NetBeans supports:
- In NetBeans select Tools > Options > General > Web Browser > Edit... to open the Web Browsers Manager window.
Click the Add.. button to add an entry in the Web Browsers list:
- In the Name field enter Brave.
- In the Process field enter the full path to Brave.exe identified in step 1 above.
Enter any arguments for Brave in the Arguments text box.
Step 3 of 3: Configure your web project to use Brave by default:
- Select Properties > Run from the context menu of the web application you want to run.
Select the new entry Brave from the Browser drop list:
After doing that your web application will open in Brave when run from NetBeans. Obviously you only need to follow step 3 for other web applications to run in Brave as well.
