Today's work environment doesn't look the same as it did a few years ago. You're supporting flexible work patterns, with remote users who are often using personal devices. Cybersecurity threats are more sophisticated, complicating the task of protecting sensitive information. And seemingly overnight, the responsibility of stopping unauthorized AI use is falling on your shoulders as IT and security professionals. Combine all this with the fact that today's work relies heavily on software as a service (SaaS), and you'll see that the web browser is crucial to accessing corporate resources and AI. This makes it an endpoint you simply cannot afford to overlook. You need a secu…

by Guest Microsoft Edge Team- 0 replies

As web developers we spend a lot of time authoring our code in an editing environment. We then jump over to the browser to use the in-built developer tools to debug and tweak the product UI.

by Guest Microsoft Edge Team- 0 replies
- 247 views
If you work in software development, you probably already know how vital getting feedback about your product can be. Only your real users know what it feels like to use the product to accomplish their day to day tasks. You know a lot too, but being so close to the development means you’re biased. Here on the Microsoft Edge DevTools team, it’s the same thing. We are building a product for developers, and even if we are developers ourselves, we depend on your feedback to build the right tools for you. We want our tools to help you achieve more, be more productive, and produce better web experiences. Only you can tell us what can be improved or added, what features you miss,…

Introducing Microsoft Edge Game Assist (Preview)—a seamless, full-featured in-game browser
by Guest Microsoft Edge Team- 0 replies

88% of PC players use a browser while gaming to get help, track their progress, or even listen to music or chat with friends1. These actions require you to pull out your phone or Alt-Tab to the desktop on your PC, taking you out of your game. Unless you have multiple monitors, you also can't see what's happening in the game while you're in the browser or reference a guide while you play. We believe there's a better way. Today, we're excited to introduce Microsoft Edge Game Assist (Preview), the first in-game browser that delivers a rich gaming-centric browsing experience—including access to your browser data from your PC and mobile devices.
