OmniWeb is a web browser developed and marketed by The Omni Group exclusively for Apple's macOS operating system. Though a stable version is no longer maintained, it is still available as a free download, and unstable versions are still being released.
==History== OmniWeb was originally developed by Omni Group for the NeXTSTEP platform and was released by Lighthouse Design on March 17, 1995, after only one month's development. As NeXTSTEP evolved into OPENSTEP and then Mac OS X, OmniWeb was updated to run on these platforms. These early versions of OmniWeb also run on Microsoft Windows through the Yellow Box or the OpenStep frameworks. After Sun Microsystems bought Lighthouse Design, the Omni Group released the product from version 2.5 onwards. From version 4.0 onwards, OmniWeb was developed solely for the OS X platform.
