If one could live with very old HTML standards, then
the easiest graphical browser to get to build would
probably be VMS Mosaic. It builds with VMS C and I would
expect it to build on (currently: for) VMS x86-64.
But it is 25 years old - older than VMS NetScape. There must
be a lot of missing features in 2022.
