Ladybird (web browser)

Uncommon card · No. 173033

Ladybird is an open-source web browser licensed under the BSD 2-Clause License. It is developed by the Ladybird Browser Initiative, a nonprofit organization focused solely on development of the browser. The initiative is funded entirely through donations, with Cloudflare, FUTO, Shopify, Proton and 37signals among its sponsors. Originally created as a component of SerenityOS in 2019, it has been developed as a standalone project since 2022. An alpha release is planned in 2026, beta release is expected in 2027, and a stable release for general public in 2028. There are no binary releases. It must be built from source. Ladybird uses a browser engine that is not based on any existing browser engine (e.g. Google's Chromium, Mozilla's Gecko, or Apple's WebKit). Ladybird uses its own rendering engine and JavaScript interpreter with WebAssembly support. The project also uses third-party open source libraries (unlike its predecessor in SerenityOS).
