I just can’t imagine how much of a work writing a freaking web engine from scratch is. Massive respect to all the devs working on Servo. Hope it release pretty soon.
Andreas Kling wrote a lot of Ladybird himself. It’s not finished yet, and it’s turned into a big community project with full time employees now, but with some experience building browsers, the modern spec evidently makes it quite a reasonable task to build a web engine. There are a lot of IDL files and whatnot to parse and process documents and the rendering algorithms are almost all laid out in the spec these days.
I tried Servo last month and I must say that after what I’ve seen Ladybird do, I was kind of disappointed. I don’t think release is very close based on the problems I’ve encountered.
yeah but ladybird devs care more about enforcing male centric pronouns than spending all of like 5 minutes changing him to they after many people requested it.
I don’t really see what that has to do with the feasibility of writing a new browser engine or the development status of either browser engine, but yeah, it was pretty silly of him to get dragged into an argument over that.
I don’t see how insisting on having male pronouns has to do with the feasibility of a browser engine or the development status of it either, but here we are.

Because they wasted 5 people’s time on it instead of pulling in the first pr
