Hi,

I'm making a report about browsers lists supporting css nesting.

Opera seems to support css nesting currently, but I don't know from which version of Opera and what is the rendering engine for current Opera.

I found some posts on individual blogs which tell 'Prest is the unique rendering engine for Opera'. Is the Prest still Opera's rendering engine and it supports css nesting? Or, is webkit the rendering engine for current Opera?

Please tell me correct information about the rendering engine for Opera and from which version did it begin to support css nesting?

@misaka10777 Opera is based on Chromium.

@misaka10777 Opera was originally ( starting in 1995) based on the Presto engine. In 2013, Opera switched its design to use chromium source code, which employs the Blink rendering engine (which is itself a fork of Apple's Webkit engine).

leocg, blackbird17,

oh got it. Opera had been built with Presto until 2013, but it switched its codes to chromium after 2013. So currently its rendering engine is Blink.

Thanks to your info.
