The Servo open-source browser engine project has published their monthly status update that covers all the improvements they made over the course of August. There's been a lot of progress on this Rust-based browser engine that has a lot of potential particularly for embedded/CEF-like use-cases.
During the past month some of the Servo improvements to land included:
- Support for rendering inline SVG elements.
- Support for named grid line lines and areas.
- CSS font-variation-settings support.
- Servo's developer tools now has a working network monitor panel.
- Upgrading JavaScript support to SpiderMonkey 140.
- Servo's IndexedDB database implementation continues maturing.
- Servo's document rendering loop is now throttled to 60 FPS.
- Servoshell can now display favicons of each top-level page in the tab bar.
