Download

These pre-built nightly snapshots allow developers to try Servo and report issues without building Servo locally. Please don’t log into your bank with Servo just yet!

macOS Instructions

  • Click the macOS download button above to download the latest build
  • Open the downloaded servo-latest.dmg file
  • Drag Servo.app to the Applications folder
  • Double-click on Servo.app to run Servo

Note: Servo.app is not currently signed, so Mac users may have a popup saying “Servo can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.” If the popup lacks a “proceed anyway” option, close it then right-click Servo.app and click “Open.” This time the popup will have an option to proceed opening the application.

Linux Instructions

  • Click the Linux download button above to download the latest build
  • Expand the downloaded .tar.gz file (tar zxf servo-latest.tar.gz)
  • cd servo
  • Execute ./servo to run Servo
