Opera- one of the leading innovators in browsers are tring to increase their users. The company who is aiming at acquiring a landmark of 300 million users monthly, across all its browser products on phones, tablets, televisions and computers have decided that to provide a leading browser on android and IOS, they will have to make a gradual migration from its own presto engine to webkit engine, as well as chromium which is used by Google's chrome and Apple's safari.
The CTO of opera software, Hakon Wium Lie stated thaT "The webkit engine is already very good and we aim to take part in making it even better. It supports the standards we care about and it has the performance we need. It makes more sense to have our own experts working with the open source communities to further improve webkit and chromium rather than developing our own rendering engine further. Opera will contribute to the webkit and chromium projects and we have already submitted our first set of patches: to improve multi-column layout.
This latest innovation is set to be revealed at the mobile world congress holding in Barcelona this month where a preview of it's upcoming browser on smartphones. The opera software which is sacrificing it's own presto rendering engine for webkit believes that this step would surely boost up their product and help them grow large
