Webkit A fast, open source web browser engine.
5.0 (1 review)
In a world dominated by Chromium, choosing a rendering engine is an act of resistance.
From day one, we made the deliberate choice to build Orion on WebKit, the open‑source engine at the heart of Safari and the broader Apple ecosystem. It gives us:
- A high‑performance engine that is deeply optimized for macOS and iOS.
- An alternative to the growing Chromium monoculture.
- A foundation that is not controlled by an advertising giant.
Orion may feel familiar if you’re used to Safari – respecting your muscle memory and the aesthetics of macOS and iOS – but it is an entirely different beast under the hood. We combined native WebKit speed with a completely new approach to extensions, privacy, and customization.
