    Gecko? Do you mean Blink?

    Gecko is the name of Firefox’s renderer. Blink is the name of chrome’s. WebKit is the name of Safari’s.

    It would not be correct to say that Safari uses Chrome’s renderer, but since Chrome started as a fork of WebKit, they should have some similarities.

    But there is no genetic relationship whatsoever between Gecko and Safari.
