    What can one actually do with Servo today?

    It’s apparently still not ready to be used as a browser engine (and may never be), so what exactly is it for?

      Servo doesn&#x27;t implement the whole web platform, but your own desktop app isn&#x27;t the whole web. You can generally work around any limitations or missing features. And it might be lighter than CEF or whatever.

        Naive question then: Where does Servo stand, relative to Electron?
