Chromium vs Microsoft Edge
Developers should learn Chromium when building custom web browsers, developing browser extensions, or integrating web views into desktop or mobile applications, as it offers a robust, modifiable codebase meets developers should learn microsoft edge for web development testing, especially when targeting windows users, as it's the default browser on modern windows systems. Here's our take.
Chromium
Developers should learn Chromium when building custom web browsers, developing browser extensions, or integrating web views into desktop or mobile applications, as it offers a robust, modifiable codebase
Chromium
Nice PickDevelopers should learn Chromium when building custom web browsers, developing browser extensions, or integrating web views into desktop or mobile applications, as it offers a robust, modifiable codebase
Pros
- +It's also essential for those contributing to web standards, testing browser compatibility, or working on projects like Electron that rely on its engine for cross-platform desktop apps
- +Related to: google-chrome, blink
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Microsoft Edge
Developers should learn Microsoft Edge for web development testing, especially when targeting Windows users, as it's the default browser on modern Windows systems
Pros
- +It's also valuable for leveraging built-in developer tools (similar to Chrome DevTools), testing Progressive Web Apps (PWAs), and utilizing features like Collections, vertical tabs, and Immersive Reader for productivity
- +Related to: chromium, web-development
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Chromium if: You want it's also essential for those contributing to web standards, testing browser compatibility, or working on projects like electron that rely on its engine for cross-platform desktop apps and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Microsoft Edge if: You prioritize it's also valuable for leveraging built-in developer tools (similar to chrome devtools), testing progressive web apps (pwas), and utilizing features like collections, vertical tabs, and immersive reader for productivity over what Chromium offers.
