A year of Servo Reboot: Where Are We Now?
Created by Mozilla Research in 2012 and now part of Linux Foundation Europe,
the Servo project is an experimental rendering engine written in Rust. It
combines memory safety and concurrency to create an independent, modular, and
embeddable rendering engine that adheres to web standards. Stewardship of Servo
moved from Mozilla Research to the Linux Foundation in 2020, where its mission
remains unchanged. After some slow years, in 2023 there has been renewed
activity on the project, with a roadmap now focused on improving the engine’s
CSS 2 conformance, exploring Android support, and making Servo a practical
embeddable rendering engine. In this presentation, we’ll review the status of
the project, our recent developments in 2023, our collaboration with Tauri to
make Servo an easy-to-use embeddable rendering engine, and our plans for the
future to make Servo an alternative web rendering engine for the embedded
devices industry.
