# Supported Browsers

## Supported Browsers

The Option Alpha autotrading platform is browser-based to offer flexibility and accessibility to our users. Instead of requiring a downloaded desktop client, the browser-based platform provides multiple opportunities from both an engineering and user experience perspective.

Officially supported browsers for the autotrading platform include:

* Google Chrome ([Install](https://www.google.com/chrome/))
* Microsoft Edge ([Install](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge))<br>
* Apple Safari ([Install](https://www.apple.com/safari/))
* Mozilla Firefox ([Install](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/))

In general, most Chromium-based browsers that run the V8 JavaScript engine needed for the platform are supported. Firefox, for example, runs on a different engine and is not officially supported at this time. These browsers are based on Chrome or Safari and may also work:

* Brave Browser ([Install](https://brave.com/))
