 | | One widely publicized feature of the first Gecko preview release was that it fit on a single 1.44 MB floppy disk, making it about one tenth the size of most contemporary browsers. | | | However, the first release of the rendering engine was far from bug- and crash-free, and even further from being ready for the prime-time, and producing a fully functional web browser required much more than the nascent rendering engine: the Mozilla developers soon envisioned a project more ambitious than a simple web browser. | | | Like many other large software projects, Mozilla itself has become a platform for other programs and libraries written in its domain specific programming environment. |

| | :: diabolus ex machina :: gecko advocacy |
| | Gecko is a layout engine, the piece of software which determines how the text and pictures on a page are eventually arranged. | | | Gecko, however, was functional since the beginning of the project and was always a quantum leap ahead of Internet Explorer in terms of standards support. | | | Besides, Gecko is also an open source project, which means that if you spot any bugs, you can file a report and hopefully get the attention of its developers. |

| | NGLayout Project and Gecko Layout Engine: FAQ |
| | Gecko also includes a set of complementary browser components that work alongside the layout engine to form the founding platform for the Mozilla browser and for products from commercial vendors such as Netscape 6, the AOL-Gateway browsing appliance, and others. | | | Additionally, on the Windows platform, Gecko's XPCOM interfaces are wrapped in an ActiveX control that VB developers can utilize (ActiveX wrappers are not available on other platforms because ActiveX is a Windows-only technology). | | | A JavaBean wrapper is not currently under development, but there is nothing in Gecko's architecture that precludes such development in the future. |

| | The control is a DLL wrapper around the Gecko rendering engine and is not part of mozilla.exe. | | | The Mozilla control relies exclusively on the underlying Gecko engine for its functionality so it makes it very difficult for me to specify with certainty files are necessary and which ones aren't since some are optional. | | | The result is a control which has no dependencies on any other version of Mozilla or the GRE you may have installed on your machine. |

| | The "browsing engine is smaller than 1.4 megabytes, bringing the promise of the Internet to a variety of smaller consumer devices that previously did not have the capacity to run a full-featured browser," Netscape said today in a statement announcing the engine. | | | A crucial aspect of Gecko for use in both those devices and in the AOL proprietary service software is that it is made up of components that can be separated. | | | Analysts praised the engine for its size and speed, but pointed out that the software is still in its beta phase and, as a result, has its share of bugs. |

| | David Baron's weblog: January 2003 |
| | Perhaps the simple answer is that there were too many people available to write it, and they wrote as much code as they could. | | | In many of these cases, working on one objective can hurt another one, and I think we've often failed to balance them appropriately. | | | Even lately I've watched some developers want to make incorrect changes in behavior or fail to understand the reason that another browser lays a page out differently. |

| | KHTML and Gecko - Sun, January 12, 2003 - WorldTimZone |
| | Hyatt essentially said that in order to use Gecko to accomplish Safari& speed goals, Apple would have had to significantly rearchitect some parts, drastically trim or remove several libraries, such as the image and network libraries that were redundant with Mac OS X libraries, and learn Gecko’s unique terminology for everything. | | | This is your number one goal, because you want to address what has been a fundamental problem on your platform (OS X) ever since it was launched: that no browser has accomplished the goal of fast startup and fast page load. | | | Hyatt also pointed to David Baron’s review of the Gecko layout engine for examples of the challenges facing a company seeking a layout engine. |

| | Layout engine |
| | In other words the Mozilla layout (Gecko) was reusable for web browsers besides and so people began to refer to as a distinct "layout engine" rather than a part of the web browser. | | | However the term "layout engine" reached popular usage when the Mozilla project designed its web browser's layout as a component that was separable from browser. | | | A web browser 's layout engine takes content (HTML XML images etc.) and formatting information (Cascading Style Sheets etc.) and computes a visual representation the web page usually for output on a monitor or a printer. |
