It is intended to be speedy and ethical, and maintain support for legacy extensions dropped by Firefox, from which it is forked. There are official releases for Windows (including a portable version), macOS, Linux and Android. Waterfox is based on Firefox and is compiled using various compilers and using Intel's Math Kernel Library, Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 and Advanced Vector Extensions. Linux builds are built with Clang. Waterfox is continuing to support the long-standing XUL and XPCOM add-on capability that Firefox removed in version 57.[1][2][3][4] Overview{{refimprove section|date=February 2018}}Waterfox differs from Firefox in a number of ways by:
HistoryWaterfox was first released on March 27, 2011, for 64-bit Windows. The Mac build was introduced on May 14, 2015, with the release of version 38.0,[6] the Linux build was introduced on December 20, 2016, with the release of version 50.0, and[7] the Android build was first introduced in version 55.2.2.[8] Version 29.0 released on July 22, 2015, had a build for iOS. And from May 12, 2015, to November 12, 2015, Waterfox had its own exclusive charity search engine called Storm.[9] Benchmarks and usage32-bit Firefox outperformed 64-bit Waterfox in Peacekeeper browser benchmark tests run by TechRepublic in 2012,[10] and 64-bit Waterfox slightly outperformed 32-bit Firefox in tests run by Softpedia in 2014.[11] However, in 2016 64-bit Waterfox performed worse than 64-bit Mozilla Firefox in the Kraken, SunSpider, JetStream, and Octane 2.0 benchmarks.[12] Benchmarks were once available on the developers' website but have since been removed.[13] Waterfox was presented at an event called “Pitch@Palace”[14] at St James's Palace for Prince Andrew, Duke of York. As of November 15, 2016, Waterfox had over 6 million downloads.[15] See also{{Portal|Free and open-source software|Internet}}
