Apple Releases Safari Technology Preview 100 With Bug Fixes and Performance Improvements

[MacRumors]

Apple today released a new update for Safari Technology Preview, the experimental browser Apple first introduced three years ago in March 2016. Apple designed the Safari Technology Preview to test features that may be introduced into future release versions of Safari.

Safari Technology Preview release 100 includes bug fixes and performance improvements for Web Inspector, Web Animations, WebAuthn, Media, Web API, CSS, WebRTC, JavaScript, WebGL2.

The new Safari Technology Preview update is available for both macOS Mojave and MacOS Catalina, the newest version of the Mac operating system that was released in October.

The Safari Technology Preview update is available through the Software Update mechanism in the Mac App Store to anyone who has downloaded the browser. Full release notes for the update are available on the Safari Technology Preview website.

Apple's aim with Safari Technology Preview is to gather feedback from developers and users on its browser development process. Safari Technology Preview can run side-by-side with the existing Safari browser and while designed for developers, it does not require a developer account to download.

Damn I was kinda hoping they'd do something special for the 100th release. Oh well.

Interesting, looking over that page, many of the things they are missing are things they're never going to add, like WebM and Ogg Vorbis.

Hopefully they fixed the bugs with changing the urls either closing the tab or just loading the old url. That drove me mad in 99.

Don't know why MacRumors posters are fixated with that site. It's a random abandoned GitHub project with minimal commits since 2017. https://caniuse.com is the actual industry-grade data.
