## Why Nebula Was Archived
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Nebula was created with a very specific goal in mind: to be a **controller-first browser that lived inside the Steam ecosystem**, particularly for Steam Deck and SteamOS users who wanted a web experience without relying on desktop mode, keyboards, or external workarounds.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
During the Steam review process, Valve determined that Nebula does not fit within Steam’s allowed categories for non-game software. As a result, the application was permanently retired from Steam and cannot be distributed on the platform.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
While Nebula can function as a desktop browser, distributing it outside of Steam fundamentally changes the experience it was designed to provide. Requiring third-party installation methods or desktop mode defeats the core problem Nebula was built to solve.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Rather than ship a compromised version that no longer aligns with its original purpose, the decision was made to formally conclude development and archive the project.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This repository preserves Nebula in its final state as a complete exploration of controller-first browser design.
