<br>
Thanks for announcing this project here.<br>
<br>
Can you explain a bit why you decided to use the UIProcess directly inside the compositor?<br>
<br>
I am a bit concerned about the security of this model because the UIProcess becomes an attack vector for the compositor. Sharing the memory space with the compositor would prevent aggressive sandboxing.<br>
<br>
Great Wayland support seems like an important target for WebKit on Linux. Do you know what are the plans for GTK and EFL?<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
now with proper formatting, Igalia is happy to announce the Wayland port<br>
of WebKit.<br>
<br>
This port avoids using traditional GUI toolkits in favor of directly<br>
operating with the Wayland display protocol. Leveraging the WebKit2<br>
multi-process architecture, the UIProcess is implemented as a shared<br>
library and loaded by the Wayland compositor, enabling the WebProcess to<br>
act as a direct client of the compositor while still being controlled by<br>
the UIProcess.<br>
<br>
EGL, the Wayland EGL platform, and OpenGL ES are used for<br>
hardware-accelerated compositing of the rendered Web content. GLib,<br>
Libsoup and Cairo are used under the hood.<br>
<br>
The port serves as a good base for building systems and environments<br>
that are mostly or completely relying on the Web platform technologies<br>
for building the desired interface.<br>
<br>
Overall the port is still in its early days, with some basic<br>
functionality (e.g. functional keyboard and mouse input support) and<br>
many other Web platform features still not supported. But with Wayland<br>
EGL support constantly growing in graphics drivers for different GPUs,<br>
it can already be tested on devices like the Raspberry Pi or the Jetson<br>
TK1 development board.<br>
<br>
In terms of supported Wayland compositors, for the moment we only<br>
support Weston (the reference Wayland compositor implementation), which<br>
is also used for development purposes. It's also used for running the<br>
layout tests by again pushing WebKitTestRunner functionality into a<br>
shared library, though all that is still in very early stages.<br>
<br>
The code is available on GitHub. There are also short instructions for<br>
building the dependencies and the port, and how to run it.<br>
<a href="https://github.com/WebKitForWayland/webkit" target="_blank">https://github.com/<u></u>WebKitForWayland/webkit</a><br>
<br>
There's also additional repositories there (for Cairo, Weston),<br>
containing changes that haven't yet been pushed upstream. In the<br>
following days we'll also be providing Buildroot configurations that can<br>
be used for cross-compiling the whole software stack for the supported<br>
hardware.<br>
<br>
We look forward to continuing evolving this work, enabling further<br>
features and improving performance on the software side and adding<br>
support for additional devices. As with all open-source projects,<br>
contributions are welcome.<br>
