What this means is that Opera browsers in the near future will use WebKit, the same engine that is powering Google Chrome, for its browser instead of the company's own Presto engine.Īt first glance it looks like the right decision. Today's press release confirms that Opera Software has decided to make a gradual transition to WebKit for "most of its upcoming versions of browsers for smartphones and computers". It was not really clear if the company would go through with it or not.
Ever since Opera showcased a version of its mobile browser running on WebKit, codenamed Ice, I knew that the software company was considering switching to WebKit and ditching its own rendering engine in the process.
