Shiira (シイラ, Japanese for the common dolphin-fish) is a discontinued open source web browser for the Mac OS X operating system. According to its lead developer Makoto Kinoshita, the goal of Shiira was "to create a browser that is better and more useful than Safari". Shiira used WebKit for rendering and scripting. The project reached version 2.3 before it was discontinued, and by December 2011 the developer's website had been removed.

Features and performance

Since the browser was developed with Safari in mind, the main characteristics of the two browsers are similar. The final release for Mac OS X 10.3 was 1.2.2.
