Microsoft is expected to be released in the coming months the program browsing Edge that will use Chromium as a base and while the development of the new applicationAs it continues, a random leak has surfaced that gives us more information on the progress of the development.
Chris Heilmann, Open Web Programs Manager and Microsoft Browsers, sent a tweet with an image that includes, among other things, the icon of the new browser with the line tasks.
As you can see in the image below posted by Heilmann, the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser has a yellow icon instead of blue but keeps the same design in the logo.
The icon is also labeled "CAN", indicating that the browser is still in Canary development. For those who do not know the term Canary is used by Google for early versions of the Chrome browser and serves as a testing platform for new features that are in the experimental stage.
Two different images also reveal how the new Edge Browser installation screen will look like. #LetsBuildTogether could indicate that Microsoft is planning to present the first version of Chromium-based Edge at the Build developer this spring.
There is currently no confirmed date when BUILD 2019 could be made.
The updated Microsoft Edge program is expected to maintain the look and feel of the existing version, but Microsoft says that changing the base to Chromium can improve the browsing experience for all users of the app.
