Description

Basilisk is a web browser built on the Unified XUL Platform (UXP), showcasing the functionality that closely resembles pre-Servo Firefox. This free and open-source browser utilizes a Firefox-like interface and operates similarly to its predecessor. It leverages the Goanna rendering engine, a derivative of Gecko, while drawing from the Mozilla codebase without incorporating Servo or Rust. Basilisk serves primarily as a reference application to facilitate the ongoing development of the XUL platform it is based on, and it also presents itself as a viable alternative to Firefox. As development software, Basilisk is essentially in a perpetual "beta" phase, which means users may encounter bugs and are advised that it is offered in its current state with possible flaws. Furthermore, like other projects within the open-source community, it is provided without any guarantees or assurances regarding its suitability for any specific use case, highlighting the importance of user discretion. This aspect of the software reinforces the collaborative nature of its development, inviting contributions and feedback from the community.

Description

Discover your new go-to browser that offers cutting-edge features, impressive speed, and essential development tools for creating on the open web. It includes the latest beta developer tools and innovative additions such as a multi-line console editor and a WebSocket inspector. You can easily run this alongside the standard or beta versions of Firefox, thanks to a distinct profile and path. Tailored specifically for web developers, it comes with default settings for browser and remote debugging, a dark theme, and a handy developer toolbar button. Notably, Firefox DevTools now highlights CSS rules that do not apply to the page, and hovering over the info icon reveals insightful messages about the non-functional CSS, along with suggestions for resolution. The newly upgraded Firefox DevTools are not only powerful and flexible but also customizable to suit your needs. Among its standout features is a top-tier JavaScript debugger capable of targeting multiple browsers, all built with React and Redux, making it an ideal choice for developers. With these enhancements, developing on the web has never been more accessible or efficient.
