Top 13 Rust Browser Projects

  • Servo

    Servo, the embeddable, independent, memory-safe, modular, parallel web rendering engine

    • Project mention: CSS for Printing to Paper | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-03

    > Is there any easy to use/hack HTML layouting engine where I could experiment with custom CSS attributes and bridge that gap? Would anything from Servo be suitable?

    Servo could be used for this. You'd want to add support for parsing the CSS properties themselves to the style crate in https://github.com/servo/stylo and then the layout implementation to the layout2020 crate in https://github.com/servo/servo. You do effectively get a whole browser though.

    I'm currently working on building a lighter weight / hackable layout engine based on a combination of https://github.com/servo/stylo (for css parsing and selector resolution), https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy (for box-level layout) and https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-text (for flow/inline layout). I expect to have something decent in around 6 months

    Neither of these setups currently have any support for pagination though.

  • carbonyl

    Chromium running inside your terminal

    • Project mention: Show HN: Consol3 – A 3D engine in the terminal that executes on the CPU | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-23

    supports WebGL over SSH/MoSH

    https://www.brow.sh/docs/introduction/ :

    > The terminal client updates and renders in realtime so that, for instance, you can watch videos. It uses the UTF-8 half-block trick () to get 2 colours from every character cell, thus simulating basic graphics.

    https://github.com/fathyb/carbonyl :

    > Carbonyl originally started as html2svg and is now the runtime behind it.

    Always wondered how brew.sh added the brew sprite there; that's real nice.

    TIL that e.g. Kitty term can basically framebuffer modified Chrome?

    https://github.com/chase/awrit :

    > Yep, actual Chromium being rendered in your favorite terminal that supports the Kitty terminal graphics protocol.

    FWIW Cloudflare has clientless Remote Browser Isolation that also splits the browser at the rendering engine.

    A TUI Manim renderer would be neat. Re: Teaching math with Manim and interactive 3d: https://github.com/bernhard-42/jupyter-cadquery/issues/99

    What would you add to make it easier to teach with this entirely CPU + software rendering codebase?

    What prompts for learning would you suggest?

    - Pixar in a Box, Wikipedia history of CG industry: https://westurner.github.io/hnlog/#comment-36265807

    - "Rotate a wireframe cube or the camera perspective with just 2d pixels to paint to; And then rotate the cube about a point other than the origin, and then move the camera while the cube is rotating"

    - OTOH, ManimML, Yellowbrick, and the ThreeJS Wave/Particle simulator might be neat with a slow terminal framebuffer too

  • InfluxDB

  • Weylus

    Use your tablet as graphic tablet/touch screen on your computer.

    • Project mention: Show HN: Another way to use an old tablet as an extra screen | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-06

    I've used Weylus [0]. It works over LAN, lets you control the mouse from your tablet. Sometimes it's laggy, but you can configure the resolution so it's not using too much bandwidth. I'm not sure if it's stable at all. Haven't used it on a regular basis.
