Mozilla Firefox browser
The Mozilla Foundation and its subsidiary, the Mozilla Corporation, developed Mozilla Firefox, a free and open-source web browser. The Gecko rendering engine is used by Firefox to display online pages. Firefox began adopting new technology known as Quantum in 2017 in order to improve parallelism and a more intuitive user interface. Firefox is a web browser that runs on Windows 7, Windows 10, macOS, and Linux. Its unofficial ports are available for FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, illumos, and Solaris Unix, among other Unix and Unix-like operating systems. Android and iOS versions of Firefox are also available. Due to platform restrictions, the iOS version, like all other iOS web browsers,
employs the WebKit layout engine instead of Gecko. As one of the two main browsers available with Amazon's Silk Browser, an optimized version of Firefox is also available on the Amazon Fire TV.
Mozilla community members that wanted a standalone browser instead of the Mozilla Application Suite bundle built Firefox in 2002 under the code name "Phoenix." Firefox was well-received by beta testers, who complimented it for its speed, security, and add-ons when contrasted to Microsoft's then-dominant Internet Explorer 6. On November 9th, Firefox was released.In just nine months, it overtook Internet Explorer's supremacy with 60 million downloads. Because the Mozilla community was founded by Netscape in 1998, before they were acquired by AOL, Firefox is the spiritual successor of Netscape Navigator.
Firefox 3.5 overtook Internet Explorer 7, but not all versions of Internet Explorer as a whole, to reach a peak of 32.21 percent at the end of 2009, with Firefox 3.5 overtaking Internet Explorer 7 in terms of usage share. As a result of the competition from Google Chrome, use began to fall. According to StatCounter, Firefox has a 7.62 percent usage share as a "desktop" web browser as of August 2021, making it the fourth most popular after Google Chrome (68.76 percent), Safari (9.7%), and Microsoft Edge (8.1 percent ),

While its overall usage share is smaller, at 3.45%, it is still in third position (after Google Chrome with 65.27 percent and Safari with 18.34 percent ).
Dave Hyatt, Joe Hewitt, and Blake Ross started the project as an experimental branch of the Mozilla project. They argued that the Mozilla browser's functionality had been harmed by the economic obligations of Netscape's sponsorship and developer-driven feature creep. They designed a stand-alone browser to fight what they perceived as the Mozilla Suite's software bloat, with the intention of replacing the Mozilla Suite. On September 23, 2002, version 0.1 was released. The date was April 3, 2003.
