🦫 alert!

We published the first episode of "Teach the Web new Tricks", featuring @servo and @n0iroh to create distributed Web apps!

Learn more how we expand the Web from tabs to windows to devices at https://webbeef.org/tricks.html

We're looking for a library for text prediction / autocompletion that we could use. Either pure JS or that can be compiled to WASM.

🦫 Update: we now have an improved keyboard with multiple layouts and emoji support!

Now is the time to refactor our UI touchstart / touchend event handlers

The sandbox issue is not really specific to Apple Silicon - for instance on the mobile builds (aarch64 linux) the sandbox is also disabled for no good reason...

@dried @servo It's still missing support for some APIs, but progress is steady.

If you are focused on security, it started with the right architecture (multiprocess, site isolation). We still need to re-enable sandboxing by default (see https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/36907). The community is great with newcomers if you want to help!

Sandboxing is unsupported on Arm MacOS · Issue #36907 · servo/servo

On a Mac with Apple Silicon, running servo with sandboxing enabled (./mach run -S -M) crashes. This is because the conditions for deciding whether to enable sandboxing or not are: #[cfg(all( not(ta...

@nbourdais @mobian Yes, it is available on desktop if you turn on the "Mobile Simulation" toggle in the Developer section of the Settings app.
