I am in no way afiliated with Vivaldi-browser, except as a user.

has the original readme from the developpers.
Building
(Thanks to RAZR_96 for providing these instructions in this comment)
The build instructions (from the
README
file) is missing a command to make the file (or you could make it manually):vivaldi-source\testdata\stp.viv
and add to the file:// Vivaldi Standalone
Build according to the instructions on the
README
fileThe build will use a standalone profile as a result of this file. To use your normal profile you need to delete stp.viv from:
vivaldi-source\out\Release
. Be aware that using different versions of Vivaldi on the same profile will give an error on start up. It'll probably still work but I wouldn't advise it.Once you've built it you need to find where Vivaldi is installed and copy this folder:
Vivaldi\Application\1.8.770.50\resources\vivaldi
to this directory:
vivaldi-source\out\Release\resources\
If anyone wants to build on windows, there's a build.bat here. You also need WinSparkle. Extract the contents of the zip to:
vivaldi-source\third_party_winsparkle_lib
And lastly the 'Release' folder will be about 30GB once built. Not all of the files/folders in it are needed to run the browser. So here's a Powershell script I made that copies only the stuff you need.
