So I called out Acid3 in the original comment (and mentioned why it’s not the holy grail) so people wouldn’t get the idea that I was building full-on modern browsers. I’m not sure what I need to say to make y’all happy. I’m just excited that these tools are capable of doing non-trivial work and I’m having fun throwing tasks at it to see what comes out. I’m not going around telling people to download or use these things.

Your browser does not have the concept of breaking a line once it gets too long[1].
Your browser does not even shape text during layout and it renders text using a DrawString[2] function from a library that only applies kerning. No complex shaping to be seen in a light-year radius.
There is no trace of bidi-reordering either. I can't link to anything here since there's nothing to link to.
I will leave this[3] here too but I'm not going to draw conclusions without a deeper understanding of wtf the agent did here and how Acid3 works.
From now on if you still don't understand how this does not deserve the title of a browser I will assume you are trolling.

My problem is that you're telling people you built a browser. Some people have standards for what can be considered even a "toy" browser (this is not it).
