- MBCook 8y agoIt’s not even WebKit anymore.
- digi_owl 8y agoIF that was true, then perhaps more effort should be directed towards making Gecko a drop in engine? The big "benefit" of webkit is that it is a engine without the whole "browser" thing tagging along. But the last time i poked at getting gecko to stand on its own, albeit some time ago, it involved grabbing Firefox and giving it some configure (or whatever that python thing that is masking as configure that Mozilla is using these days) options to have it barf out only Gecko.
- genghizkhan 8y agoI think they're working on servo for that. It'll be able to be dropped in place of Chromium: it'll support the same API. Or so I remember.
