Apple Rolls Out Public Release Of Safari Technology Preview 142

Apple yesterday published a new version of Safari Technology Preview, the experimental browser introduced by Apple in March 2016.  Apple created the Safari Technology Preview to evaluate features that may be included in future Safari release versions.

According to Apple, the new Safari Technology Preview version 142 includes bug fixes and performance improvements for Web Inspector, CSS Subgrid, CSS Container Queries, CSS, Web Animations, Rendering, JavaScript, Forms, Shared Workers, Workers, Dialog Element, Web API, Experimental Model Element, and Web Extensions.

The latest Safari Technology Preview version is based on the Safari 15.4 upgrade and incorporates Safari 15 capabilities that were included in macOS Monterey.

Anyone who has downloaded the browser can get the Safari Technology Preview update via the software update mechanism in System Preferences. The Safari Technology Preview page has the full release notes for the upgrade.

The goal of Safari Technology Preview is for Apple to collect input from developers and users on their browser development process. However, Safari Technology Preview may coexist with the standard Safari browser, and while it is intended for developers, it does not require a developer account to download.
