Improved control over typography, very early support for sticky positioning and tables, plus updates to our minibrowser and build tooling.
It’s great to see Servo finally getting some development again. I was so hopeful in the early days when Mozilla was using it as a playground and backporting parts to Firefox… Then that totally stopped.
I’ve used some of their components in a little helper program that was scraping some stats from a service without an API, so Servo code will end up in plenty of projects besides Firefox (and Tauri). Good news for all of us.
I wonder if servo could be turned into a safer electron alternative.
It’s already planned: https://servo.org/blog/2024/01/19/embedding-update/
Others have linked it, so just the summary here. Tauri is an alternative to Electron. But unlike electron, Tauri doesn’t bundle the web engine (blink) and uses the platform’s webview instead. Tauri and Servo teams are working together on integrating the latter as the engine.
