Spartan is based on Microsoft’s Trident rendering engine, which is also found in Internet Explorer.


The browser allows you to collaborate with others by marking up with drawing on the page directly. You’ll also be able to click anywhere on the page and comment.

The browser features a reading mode that automatically downloads articles for offline reading later, which is useful if you’re catching a flight without internet.

Cortana is coming to the browser and can learn from your habits and give you details on things when it thinks it’s relevant, just like Google Now.

Joe Belfiore, Corporate Vice President of Operating Systems at Microsoft said that Spartan is the current codename and will likely change before the release.


It’s not clear exactly when Spartan will be available, but Belfiore said the features will roll out “over the next few months.”
