Apple Google and Mozilla are working together to develop the next generation browser standard |
Apple, Google and Mozilla said in a tweet that they are working together to create a new benchmark for browser performance called Speedometer 3.
As we have seen in the new steps, Apple and its Safari browser, Google and its Chrome browser, Mozilla and Firefox will come together to provide a benchmark designed to improve the performance of their applications with the latest technology to test a website that can be used.
In a Twitter thread, Mozilla said the standard, which was created by several web companies, would help provide a "shared understanding of what's important."
The group says this is important for coordination between web developers, standards bodies and build engine groups that interpret code against those standards, and companies that build browsers based on those engines.
Apple's WebKit web engine account on Twitter stated that "working together will help us raise the bar and improve browsing performance for our users."
Finally, the benchmark used to compare Safari's WebKit engine to Chrome's Blink engine, or Google's V8 engine to Mozilla's SpiderMonkey engine, may not be appropriate for businesses, as the results may be at the expense of the other. .
In a series of tweets on Twitter, Google said that the two companies have established rules that prevent them from influencing the outcome in their favour.
According to the governance policy, minor changes require the approval of at least two participating browser projects and cannot be implemented if others strongly oppose them, while major changes require the consensus of all stakeholders.
Speedometer 3 is still in its early stages and its GitHub page notes that it is "in active and unstable development" and recommends Speedometer 2.1, which is primarily being developed by Apple's WebKit Engine team.
According to Google, the company wants to ensure that the new version is "up-to-date to include modern workloads such as JavaScript frameworks." More information about the new standard is expected to be announced in the coming months.
