Interested in testing the next version of Microsoft Edge? Then join the
Microsoft Edge Insider program, which just opened up for applicants today.
"Calling all developers and tinkerers," the sign-up page
announces. Your voices will help us shape the next version of Microsoft
Edge. Sign up to be the first to know when preview builds are available."
As I'm sure you heard, Microsoft announced
today that it will adopt the Chromium open source project in the development
of Microsoft Edge on the desktop, across Windows 7, 8.1, and 10, and macOS.
The announcement was rather vague , but the software giant says it is taking
this radical step to "create better web compatibility for our customers, and
less fragmentation of the web for all web developers."
In joining Chromium-which, contrary to popular belief, is not "owned" or
"controlled" by Google, Microsoft is meaningfully increasing its
participation
open source software. "We're determined to be good members of the OSS
community," Microsoft notes.
Anyway, you should sign-up. I assume the Insider Program will be for Edge
for desktop specifically. And we should see our first pre-release version of
the app in early 2019.
