Safari on iOs is a bit special. Some features are missing compared to the Mac version. You also need quite a few safari ios specific code if you want to build a web app. But this is a bit broken since Apple wants you to publish to the appstore and not release web apps anymore.
You also need a Mac to debug safari on iOs. I hate Safari.
- orev 6y agoThe point being made is that if you use Chrome or Firefox on IOS, it’s still actually the Safari engine.
- naugtur 6y agoActually, it's less than that. Safari doesn't share some of the features. IIRC one if them is service workers.
- robertoandred 6y agoIf anything, the Mac version is missing features compared to the iOS version...
- jimmaswell 6y agoSpecial is right. It's full of non-standard behavior I've had the pain of fixing because you need to target iOS, e.g. needing Safari-specific attributes to capture scrolling in a modal.
- black3r 6y agoYou don't need a mac to debug safari on iOS. There is remotedebug-ios-webkit-adapter. You need a Mac to debug Safari on Mac. Maybe that's the reason why some people only support Safari on iOS.
