> I don't think it's worth trying to write a rendering engine for HTML. You will never finish - HTML is a spec fully owned by Google and Apple at this point and it's just too complex to implement from scratch.

Andreas Kling, the author of Ladybird browser, proves otherwise.

There is also QML as an alternative for HTML - see Canonic browser: https://www.canonic.com

Andreas hasn't finished. Also, I question to what extent it's worth it.
