    There aren’t a lot of options for browser engines if you don’t want to spend forever playing catch up while writing your own. My understanding is that Gecko, which Firefox uses, isn’t as easy to build on top of. The idea with using chromium is that you can focus on building a custom ui or fancy new features without worrying about web pages rendering incorrectly.
