Aira is an open-source HarmonyOS NEXT browser, with source code released under GPL-3.0. The same repository also includes a desktop sync extension and a single-owner service for self-hosted sync.

Browsing, bookmarks, history, downloads, filtering, scripts, and the home page can all be handled locally. Community does not depend on Aira’s official cloud or a Huawei account; to sync across devices, use your own WebDAV or Personal Server.
