Basilisk
Basilisk is a free and Open Source XUL-based web browser, featuring the well-known Firefox-style interface and operation. It is based on the Goanna layout and rendering engine (a fork of Gecko) and builds on the Unified XUL Platform (UXP), which in turn is a fork of the Mozilla code base without Servo or Rust. Basilisk as an application is primarily a vessel for development of the XUL platform it builds upon, and additionally a potential replacement for Firefox to retain the use of Firefox Extensions. The browser is created and maintained by the team behind Pale Moon , and is a fully independent fork of the Mozilla Firefox code. Basilisk is a modern, full-featured web browser. It aims to retain useful technologies that its sibling Firefox has removed.
