Firefox Quantum – The fastest Firefox ever

Mozilla announced that Firefox Quantum is now available in Developer Edition, and is the fastest Firefox ever.

Firefox Quantum Developer Edition includes “Quantum CSS,” a new CSS engine written in Rust and based on the Servo parallel browser engine project.
