TenFourFox

TenFourFox is a simple, clean, and user-friendly Mac OS X app. It lets you enjoy the latest web technologies, even on older PowerPC Macs.

What is TenFourFox?

So, here's the deal: TenFourFox takes the standard Mozilla Firefox browser and tweaks it to work with Mac OS X versions 10.4 and 10.5. Plus, it's specially optimized for your G3, G4, or G5 Mac. Think of it as Firefox made just for older Macs!

Cool Features

Just like Firefox, TenFourFox comes packed with a bunch of cool features. It supports a wide range of add-ons and has HTML5 and CSS3 capabilities. You'll find that it meets both Acid2 and Acid3 standards too!

Performance Boost

This app also includes JavaScript just-in-time compilation and uses AltiVec to speed up key media codecs. Thanks to some clever coding tricks, you'll see improved performance on your older machines.

Limitations

However, since it's designed for older operating systems, some modern features are missing. For instance, TenFourFox doesn't fully support Core Text or Apple Advanced Typography features in various international fonts.

No Graphics Acceleration

You should also know that there's no support for graphics acceleration or WebGL in TenFourFox. But don't worry; the interface still looks good! It borrows many visual elements from Firefox, making it easy to navigate.

User-Friendly Interface

This means you can open multiple tabs, bookmark your favorite pages, and pretty much do everything you'd expect from a modern browser.

How to Get Started

If you want to give TenFourFox a try, all you need to do is download the right archive, extract the app wherever you like (we recommend your Applications folder), and you're all set!
