That's nice, but no iOS release?
Edit: As it is now, it doesn't look very different from what already existed as OSX-side-loadable Webkit Nightlies https://webkit.org/nightly/ https://webkit.org/nightly/ or building from source (which even supports iOS simulator!) https://webkit.org/building-webkit/ https://webkit.org/building-webkit/
- Viper007Bond 11y agoI don't see that happening as Safari isn't just some application that runs on iOS as an app, it's more built into the OS itself.
- masklinn 11y agoIt could be available as something of a public ad-hoc build, or as a sideload-able package since the iOS9 SDK added support for sideloading. OSX Safari is also built pretty deep into the OS.
- 0x0 11y agoI don't see why not as webkit.org already supports building for the iOS simulator https://webkit.org/building-webkit/ https://webkit.org/building-webkit/
- mikhailt 11y agoThat's because it is nearly the same as WebKit Nightly but with a few things included that WebKit Nightly can't include such as iCloud sync. Apple already explained on the same page as the OP link: > You may already be familiar with the WebKit Nightly, which serves a purpose similar to that of Safari Technology Preview. For most people, we think Safari Technology Preview is a more convenient and stable way to live on recent WebKit changes. Unlike the nightlies, Safari Technology Preview supports the full set of iCloud-based Safari features, including iCloud History and iCloud Tabs. And we’ll use the time between Safari Technology Preview releases to curate and test updates to a point where we think developers will find it practical to use as their primary browser.
