Clutter WebKit port ¶
The Clutter port of WebKit is a project to provide a web browser actor for Clutter and an MxWidget for Mx. This port is currently maintained outside of the official WebKit tree.
Obtaining the Clutter port ¶
Currently the port is developed in a git repository at https://gitorious.org/webkit-clutter/webkit-clutter
Building the Clutter port ¶
You can use the standard build-webkit script:
$ ./Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --clutter
Or you can use the standard autotools commands. It is recommended to make a separate build directory setting, like this:
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ ../autogen.sh --with-port=clutter
$ make
Reporting bugs ¶
If you found a bug, please report it to our trac instance: http://webkit-clutter.collabora.co.uk/
What is coming ¶
Now that the base functionality is already there, we are looking at these improvements, in rough order of priority:
- Accelerated composition: use clutter to provide an implementation of the accelerated code paths giving us GPU-accelerated CSS3 transforms, translations, and animations
- Take advantage of the accelerated layers insfrastructure to render video straight to a texture when possible
- Investigate the cogl backend for cairo: so we move more work from the CPU to the GPU
- WebGL: integrate the existing WebKitGTK+ implementation with OpenGL, working with cogl upstream to make sure it provides the necessary tools for that
