Servo 0.3 released today as the latest version of this modern browser engine developed in Rust. With Servo 0.3 the demo servoshell browser is becoming more useful and supporting additional modern web features while Servo also continues to possess much potential moving forward on the embedded front as an alternative to the likes of the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF).

Servo 0.3 has seen many more features implemented over the past month, including additional scripting support, more CSS features like font-variant-numeric, a number of layout improvements, WebGPU enhancements, and more. In addition there have been improvements to the Servo developer tools capabilities, updating to Rust 1.95 usage, and more.

Trying out Servo 0.3 myself on Linux, the Servo demo shell is working out much better than in prior releases and correctly rendering more websites than before.

Servoshell still isn't featureful enough for any daily usage with it being a very limited experience largely for demo purposes, but it is a convenient way to keep tabs on the current capabilities of the Servo engine.

Servo 0.3 downloads for all major platforms as well as more details on the dozens of changes in this new version can be found via GitHub.
