Gecko is pretty much unusable outside of Firefox AFAIK - I'm not aware
of any projects using it as a standalone engine, and even projects which
kind-of did (Conkeror[1] using Firefox' xulrunner) died when Mozilla
deprecated that.

FWIW there's also a project which tried to write a vim-like browser
using servo, but it seems to have died quickly:
