Microsoft Edge finally gets extensions

The Fast Ring got build 14291 today. The main new toy is Extensions to the Edge Browser, and Pinned tabs.

From the Blog:

Here’s what’s new in Build 14291

Extensions in Microsoft Edge: Today we are very excited to introduce extensions for Microsoft Edge. To try out an extension, just click on “More” (…) at the top right in Microsoft Edge and click “Extensions” to open the Extensions pane and click “Get extensions”. You can try out the Mouse Gestures, Microsoft Translator and Reddit Enhancement Suite extensions today with more on the way. Extensions are only available on PC. For more information on extensions for Microsoft Edge, check out this blog post from Drew.

Pinned Tabs in Microsoft Edge: Microsoft Edge now lets you pin tabs, making it super easy to keep your most-used sites and web apps always available. To pin a tab, right-click on the tab you want to pin and choose “Pin tab”. To unpin a tab, right-click on the pinned tab you want to unpin and choose “Unpin tab”. Pinned tabs always appear at the start of the tab row, and only showing the site’s favicon. Pinned tabs don’t show a close button, so you won’t accidentally close them. Pinned tabs that are in your Microsoft Edge window when you close the app will come back the next time you open Microsoft Edge.

Other Microsoft Edge Improvements: You can now copy any link into your clipboard, and right-click on the address bar in Microsoft Edge and choose “Paste and go” from the context menu. Microsoft Edge pastes the URL into the address bar, and navigates to the site. You can also copy words to your clipboard, and choose “Paste and search”.

Updated Maps app: This build includes a updated Maps app for Windows 10 that brings a more lightweight, scalable, and consistent UI as well as underlying architecture improvements and new features for you to try!

• One-tap access to search and directions from anywhere, even on your phone. This is great especially for one-handed use.
• You can view multiple searches and directions at the same time, on the same map as they are layered on top of each other and you can use tabs or the map to switch between them.
• You can now minimize search results, directions, and location info to enjoy more of the map, while keeping them in easy reach.
• You can see labels for your search results directly on the map. No more numbers to match between the map and the list.
• Cortana will give you turn-by-turn directions (if Cortana is enabled).
• We have improved the logic for nearby searches so you should see better (closer) results.
• We have added the ability to search for your favorite city in the 3D cities list so no more scrolling forever to get to the city you want.
• You can now access your favorites offline and add notes to them.
• We have updated the turn-by-turn design to improve glanceability and landscape layout.

There isn't an ISO.

You just go to "Advanced" on the Updates page, select "Insider Previews" and "Fast".

Of course they may have problems, but I've only ever found trivial ones that have workarounds until the next release.
