## The Servo Parallel Browser Project

Servo is a web browser engine written in the Rust language. It is
currently developed on OS X and Linux.

Note: Servo requires a bleeding-edge version of Rust. The Rust commit
most recently tested is listed below. Servo often doesn't build
against Rust _incoming_ or _master_ branches, due to upstream language
changes. If you want to unbreak Servo against the latest Rust build,
somebody in #servo or #rust will usually know what magic is required
to fix the build.

### Prerequisites

On OS X (homebrew):

    brew install https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-versions/master/autoconf213.rb
    brew install cairo

On OS X (MacPorts):

    sudo port install autoconf213 cairo +x11 +quartz
    
On Debian-based Linuxes:

    sudo apt-get install libcairo2-dev libpango1.0-dev autoconf2.13 freeglut3-dev

### Building

    git clone git://github.com/mozilla/servo.git
    cd servo
    mkdir -p build && cd build
    ../configure
    make check-servo && make
    ./servo ../src/test/test.html


### Build Workarounds

#### MacPorts

Currently, the Makefile for the `rust-azure` submodule has hardcoded
library paths that assumes cairo has been installed with homebrew or
MacPorts. If you have installed cairo via another methods or a
different version, you will need to change the library path.

This problem should go away once Issue #40 is fixed, and an
externally-built cairo is no longer needed.
