Microsoft has released two Edge builds for macOS: Canary and Developer. The Canary build is updated daily to fix problems users encounter while build Developer is updated weekly.

Updates for these two builds are provided via the browser (similar to Chrome), so users won't be bothered by these updates.

Step 2 . Once the download is complete, simply install it into the Applications folder (or whatever location you want) as with other original applications.

Step 3 . After the application is successfully installed, you can open it from the Applications folder.

Step 4 . If you also install Chrome on Mac, Edge will automatically import all data (bookmarks, browsing history, saved passwords, etc.) from Chrome for easy use. You can also choose Start from Scratch to start browsing from scratch if you want.

Microsoft has worked on the user interface designed to make the application feel like an original Mac application along with adding keyboard shortcuts on the Mac keyboard. The macOS application also has Dark mode, which provides support for Apple's original Dark mode. Similarly, privacy controls and other additional features are being prepared for future Edge versions (both Windows and Mac), so expect them to be added soon.

Microsoft has yet to announce the official release date of the final release, so in the meantime, you can use the developer build if you want to test it first.

I wish you all success!
