Servo is an independent web rendering engine written in Rust, offering memory safety and parallelism advantages over traditional C++ engines. After Mozilla transferred it to Linux Foundation in 2020, Igalia revitalized the project in 2023. The engine now passes 92.7% of web platform tests, features a modern layout engine, and supports cross-platform deployment including Linux, macOS, Windows, Android, and OpenHarmony. The project focuses on becoming production-ready with improvements in incremental layout, WebDriver support, SVG rendering, and DevTools. Servo aims to lead the embeddable web engine ecosystem while maintaining independence from big tech corporations.
