The Servo project, now hosted under Linux Foundation Europe, is a modern Rust-based rendering engine pushing forward safety, modularity and high-performance web rendering. After its early foundations at Mozilla and a couple of years of impasse, Servo entered a new chapter in 2023 when Igalia took over stewardship, ensuring long-term maintenance, open governance, and a clear technical direction for the project. The Servo community has continued to grow steadily since then.

In this talk we’ll review the recent evolution of the project together with the plans for the future. Apart from that, we’ll focus on the impact of this work in the whole web platform, by finding issues in specifications and improving them, reporting interop bugs, contributing new tests, etc.; showing that the development of new web engines benefits the whole ecosystem.
