'''Microsoft Edge''' is a web browser developed by [[w:Microsoft|Microsoft]]. It was created with the aim to replace [[Internet Explorer]] as the default browser in [[Windows 10]] and [[Windows 11]]. The original version, now called Edge Legacy, is a UWP app using the EdgeHTML and Chakra engines, however, the browser has since been redesigned using the [[w:Chromium (web browser)|Chromium]] codebase using the project's Blink and V8 engines. Since the engine switch, new versions of the browser for [[Windows 7]] and later, as well as [[macOS]], [[Android]], [[iOS]] and desktop [[Linux]] distributions have been introduced. | '''Microsoft Edge''' is a web browser developed by [[w:Microsoft|Microsoft]].
