Microsoft is unveiling Windows 10 and a brand new browser called 'Spartan.' The new browser could support Google Chrome extensions, according to some reports.

"Spartan will be able to use Chrome extensions and, while we are not sure if they will work 100% natively, the way extensions have been implemented is nearly identical to that of Chrome which will make it a simple process for developers to make their extensions work on Spartan," noted a tech blog Neowin.

Details are still vague, but the main idea is to help developers accelerate the development.

"Microsoft wants a wide range of extensions to come to their new browser, and if Microsoft introduced a totally new systems for browser extensions, then developer support would probably lag behind," noted another Windows focused blog WinBeta.

Details will be more precise after the press event tomorrow.
