Safari doesn't have a Windows or Android port.


Safari used to be actively developed and shipped on Windows before 2010.


It relied on large portions of AppKit/Cocoa ported to Windows though, and I don’t think Apple would be too keen to open source that too.

For it to make sense to open source Safari for Windows, they’d first have to pull out the AppKit bits and replace them with something else.
