3D layout engine = portable performance

Browser layout engines were designed in the 1990s to render text documents with links. The Famo.us layout engine was built from the ground up to render the apps and games of today.

3D physics animation engine = natural motion

To create movement that looks and feels natural, you need a 3D physics-driven animation engine. Ours is fully integrated with our 3D layout engine.
