I generally would not recommend creating a web browser. If you really
had a need to develop your own web browser, you'd do yourself a huge
favor by reusing an existing engine and extending it. Take a look at
the current web browser landscape and note the "XXXXX-based" verbiage
for which engine each of the web browsers leveraged:

That said, I know of none that are based on Python. They are typically
written in C++. Were you, by chance, looking for a project to
implement in Python in effort to learn the language?
