Instead of doing that you can use Playwright which is used for automated testing and has the ability to test every browser - this works because Playwright ships a binary for every browser including Chromium, Firefox and WebKit using their open source builds. Windows on the other hand doesn’t have any WebKit based browser you can use as far as I’m aware of, so you would have to use a virtual machine or use the latest Windows Subsystem for Linux that can use a graphical user interface and use Epiphany. If you’re a Linux user you’re in luck because you can use a WebKit based browser such as Epiphany and it works great without any setup - it’s not going to match all the features of Safari but the browser engine they use is the same.
This explains why we test for these browsers but the problem is that only Chrome and Firefox are available on all platforms but Safari is macOS only, so you’re out of luck if you’re a Linux or Windows user - so what can you do? Method That Works For Linux, macOS, Windows Firefox uses Gecko developed by Mozilla.
Why are these the major browsers demanding our attention? If you look at the browser market share worldwide Chrome is leading at 64% while Safari has close to 20% and Firefox 4% of the market share (rest in peace Internet Explorer 💐). In this post you’re going to learn how to check your site look great in every major browser including Chrome, Firefox and Safari regardless if you’re using Linux, macOS or Windows.
