This sounds very cool! If you'd like to talk about your experience with the project on the Servo zulip (servo.zulipchat.com), we love hearing feedback from embedders.

Servo does execute JS and does support webgl (and some but not all of webgl2 if you enable the feature: https://book.servo.org/design-documentation/experimental-fea... ).

Oh, I forgot that https://arewebrowseryet.com/ exists for this too!

https://doc.servo.org/apis.html is auto-generated from WebUDL interfaces that exist in Servo. It's not great but better than nothing.

You're actually not sending Content-Type for _any_ resource, as far as I can tell!

This is something I want to make possible! There was an early experiment in https://github.com/mcclure/cuervo/ which helped identify some ways that our embedding APIs would need to change to support that use case.

I found your blog and this behaviour is extremely mysterious! Thanks for pointing this out, I've got a new puzzle to dig into now. Edit: https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/40047

Link? I'm a Servo maintainer and I appreciate test cases like that.

Correct. I didn't mean to imply otherwise.

No, it was a name I took when joining a bunch of social sites back in 2012 and feeling like I was the last person in my circles to do so.

Honestly the project has had >1000 contributors over the past 8 years and a lot of them did just that.

Servo already has a C embedding API in https://github.com/servo/servo/tree/master/ports/libsimplese... .

We had a summer of code student implementing support in Servo: https://blog.servo.org/2020/08/30/gsoc-webgpu/

Servo currently incorporates a network stack, a JS engine, the DOM, JS APIs, an HTML parser, a CSS styling engine, graphical rendering, media parsing and playback, etc. It is not a browser, since it doesn't impose requirements about ho

There is no plan to relicense at this time.

We've been cagey about this over the months since the Servo team at Mozilla was disbanded, since there were various moving pieces that needed to fall into place. We're excited about the possibility for Servo to continue growing an

Yes, but this release doesn't include any of that work that is not already in upstream Firefox.

We don't mind stuff that seems obvious because it may not be to others. Keyboard selection in the URL bar is supposed to work, for example.

https://github.com/servo/servo/blob/master/ORGANIZATION.md has a REALLY high-level overview.

That operates under the assumption that no FieldInfo will be accessible after the original vector is deallocated, and similarly requires auditing to ensure this property holds (while making no guarantees about the future).

Whoops! I merged a PR earlier today that broke searching Github issues; thanks for pointing that out!

Mmm, pretty. I had a similar project a couple years ago attempting to replicate OpenMPT's interface in the web browser: https://github.com/jdm/domtracker and http://www.joshmatthews.net/domtracker&

No different. Once we're able to run browser.html [1], using it as a GUI for other things will be a more realistic proposition. [1] https://github.com/mozilla/browser.html/

Not quite, and certainly not this year. We've said that we want to release an alpha version of something powered by Servo on Android this year; the Firefox OS work is just another good way to show viability of our ideas - it would be a
