      It’s not a fork at all though. On macOS they use Webkit, and on Windows they use Blink.

      For web page rendering, the browser uses the underlying operating system rendering API. (In this case, it’s a Windows WebView2 call that utilizes the Blink rendering engine underneath.)

        Blink is part of the chromium project and it was forked from the Webkit codebase
