Efforts are being made to eliminate the dependency on X11 in the layer. OpenGL/GLES and EGL are utilized. Specifically, Chrome OS employs the EGL extension EGL_MESA_platform_surfaceless, which allows the use of OpenGL or GLES and enables rendering to memory areas without the need to involve components for integration with the display system and without engaging Wayland, X11, and KMS code.
