KDAB has built a demo of using CXX-Qt to expose a Servo in Rust as a component to Qt.
- Ensure that you have Qt installed and
qmakein yourPATH. - Ensure that you have the dependencies of
./mach boostrapfrom the https://github.com/servo/servo/ repository. - Alternatively use the
shell.nixby installing Nix and then runningnix-shell, it will take care of all dependencies automatically - Install the nightly compiler from February
$ rustup install nightly-2024-02-01
$ rustup default nightly-2024-02-01- Then run in release mode
$ cargo run --releaseNote that this demo currently supports Wayland only, not X11.
To make sure, that Qt picks the correct OpenGL driver, use the QSG_INFO=1 variable. For hardware acceleration to work, the driver name should not contain llvmpipe.
Note that on embedded hardware it might be necessary to force servo to use OpenGL ES.
If you using Nix and if not on NixOS, make sure to run the final executable with the nixGLMesa wrapper (or if not on Mesa, with the correct wrapper for your driver). This will make sure that the OpenGL drivers are passed through from the host system with nixGL.

The KDAB Group is the global No.1 software consultancy for Qt, C++ and OpenGL applications across desktop, embedded and mobile platforms.
The KDAB Group provides consulting and mentoring for developing Qt applications from scratch and in porting from all popular and legacy frameworks to Qt. We continue to help develop parts of Qt and are one of the major contributors to the Qt Project. We can give advanced or standard trainings anywhere around the globe on Qt as well as C++, OpenGL, 3D and more.
