It's always good to see some competition, especially when the alternative is Google's monopoly...

...even if it's not particularly good competition. In fact, given the author's past work, it't not too surprising that even the source structure is like a WebKit clone.

But this must be the 5th or 6th HTML tokeniser I've seen which is another massively bloated copy-paste literal unthinking translation of the spec. Nearly 3k lines of C++, for something that is doable in under 600 lines (i.e. individual instructions!) of x86 Asm. Have programmers forgotten how to think, or is this merely a manifestation of the "don't think" mentality that's infected much of Western society?

Also, >>5 and >>6.

tl;dr: based if you want more browser competition, cringe if you're expecting anything more than that.
