Could you elaborate on running WebKit on Linux? Is it the same engine that latest Safari release is using?

- mthoms 7y agoYes, Safari is built on Webkit. Check out the downloads page for Linux versions. https://webkit.org https://webkit.org
- saagarjha 7y agoSafari mostly uses the open-source WebKit, except it of course sets all the Mac defines and Apple-specific feature flags, and there’s a bit of extra code sprinkled in internally. On Linux you can get something similar but not exactly the same by using one of the WebKit browsers, such as GNOME Web.
- butz 7y agoThanks, just installed Epiphany and was able to reproduce issue with flexbox that only Safari had. Somehow I thought that Safari and WebKit browsers were using a bit different forks of WebKit. That proves me wrong.
- saagarjha 7y agoThey are; it just might not be different enough for your purposes.
