Servo vs Blink

Currently Google backed Android platform has its own stock browser, though Google has launched its Chrome for Android. Both of them are WebKit engine powered.

Mozilla, the company behind popular Firefox browser has joined the mobile league, but a bit late and yet to find its pace as it has on desktop market.

On the other hand Samsung, the largest device marker on Android platform is bothered on Google’s dominance on Android platform.

So Mozilla and Samsung joined their hands and working on a new browser engine – Servo. As Mozilla describes Servo is a new-day approach to web browser, written on Rust, a language developed by Mozilla. Currently Servo is developed for OS X and Linux.

Google also announced that it will use Blink engine – a forked version of Webkit in its Chrome browser. The new engine will offer less complexity in Chrome’s development. Blink engine will be used on Chromium project, the behind-the-scene of Chrome.

Though Opera has its own engine – Presto, it has debuted its first Webkit powered Opera Browser on Android Play Store. Opera is also looking for Blink to contribute as it can be their next browser engine.
