An attempt at an HTML/CSS rendering engine, written in Go.
This is heavily based on Matt Brubeck's excellent "Let's build a browser engine!" article series published on his website and was built mostly as an educational exercise during my time at Recurse Center in early 2020.
This implementation is currently (and may remain) incomplete. Here are some features that I would like to add in the future.
- Painting the LayoutTree onto a canvas
- Supporting varying colors of elements
- Support for Inline CSS Box elements, including spans and text
- Support for percentage-based length calculations
- Support for partial HTML
- Correct error-handling for incorrect CSS rules/properties
- Parallelize the layout process for adjacent child elements
From the root folder, first install all dependencies.
go install ./...Then use the run command in the Makefile.
make run
