Servo Web Rendering Engine Reboot

Created by Mozilla Research in 2012, the Servo project is a Research &
Development effort meant to create an independent, modular, embeddable web
engine that allows developers to deliver content and applications using web
standards. Servo is an experimental browser engine written in Rust, taking
advantage of the memory safety properties and concurrency features of the
language. Stewardship of Servo moved from Mozilla Research to the Linux
Foundation in 2020, where its mission remains unchanged. After some slow years,
there’s now renewed activity on the project, with a roadmap 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, the recent developments during 2023 and the
plans for the future to become Servo an alternative web rendering engine for
the embedded devices industry.
