https://surf.suckless.org/ this is a very minimal browser and is perfect to use it for webapps. No top bar to worry about, opens external links in a new window, it is very light and thus webapps would work better with it, and overall it is so easy to create a webapp out of them.surf 'website' that's all it takes. Highly recommend.

Actually would be fantastic if you could ship your webapp manager with Surf and use it as default. Read its manpage there are all kinds of options for this browser.

Do you know if Surf stores persistent site data such as history, cookies, sessions, etc?

One thing Webapps do currently is create a new browser profile per app, so sessions, cookies, settings, etc. are unique to each app. If it does this by default or has a mode for it, great!

From my tests yes it does.
