To be clear: Microsoft did NOT build Edge from the ground up. Edge is IE without legacy code; that is all.

- bepotts 11y agoReally? I thought they wrote a new rending engine and some other key features?
- sp332 11y agoThe Spartan rendering engine (edgehtml.dll) is a new component and separate from Trident (mshtml.dll). The new engine began as a fork of Trident, but has since diverged rapidly over the past many months, similar to how several other browser engines have started as forks prior to diverging. The new rendering engine is also being built with a very different set of principles than Trident - for example: a focus on interoperability and the removal of document modes. - MS statement
