Microsoft Reveals Project Spartan Browser Will Support Extensions

The successor to the Microsoft's Internet Explorer, the Project Spartan browser, will support extensions like other rival browsers as per the IE Dev Team. The team might also bring the browser to Windows 7.

Microsoft's Project Spartan browser was unveiled recently at the company's Next Chapter for Windows 10 event last week.

The announcement of extension support in Microsoft's Project Spartan browser came from the Internet Explorer Developers Team, who on Tuesday as a part of the #AskIE chat posted, "Yes. We're working on a plan for extensions for a future update to Project Spartan."

Very little is known about the upcoming extension support right now. However, sources close to the matter suggest that Microsoft might also be planning to make Google Chrome extensions work on its Spartan browser, as per ZDNet.

The Internet Explorer Developer Team in another tweet posted that while the Spartan browser is exclusive to Windows 10 for now, it might also arrive on Windows 7 OS if they see a demand. "Spartan is currently targeted at Win10. We're focused on getting ppl upgraded (free) but will watch Win7 demand," the account posted.

For those unaware, Microsoft's latest Spartan browser is based on the company's new rendering engine named Edge, which is the forked version of Internet Explorer's Trident engine. At the time of Microsoft's 'The Next Chapter' event, we saw few Spartan features including Cortana integration, reading list with synchronisation, and web page annotation. However, a lot still remains to be seen and heard about the browser, which is yet to become a part of the Windows 10 Preview Builds.
