Golden Browser: Flutter golden tests with a timeline
A native macOS app for reviewing Flutter golden images across git history and comparing revisions pixel by pixel.
Field notes
Golden Browser works against a local git repository rather than a hosted screenshot service. It builds per-file commit timelines, follows renamed goldens, groups variants such as dark-mode and device-specific images, and offers single, side-by-side, or slider comparisons. Its PR mode narrows the view to a changeset and ranks the largest diffs, while the pixel inspector exposes RGBA and hexadecimal values. The macOS app is installed through Homebrew with odiff as a dependency.
