We currently spin the platform event loop while awaiting scripts to complete. This causes WebContent to hang if another component is also spinning the event loop. The particular example that instigated this patch was the navigable's navigation loop (which spins until the fetch process is complete), triggered by a form submission to an iframe. So instead of spinning, we now return immediately from the script executors, after setting up listeners for either the script's promise to be resolved or for a timeout. The HTTP request to WebDriver must finish synchronously though, so now the WebDriver process spins its event loop until WebContent signals that the script completed. This should be ok - the WebDriver process isn't expected to be doing anything else in the meantime. Also, as a consequence of these changes, we now actually handle time outs. We were previously creating the timeout timer, but not starting it. |

Ladybird
Ladybird is a truly independent web browser, using a novel engine based on web standards.
Important
Ladybird is in a pre-alpha state, and only suitable for use by developers
Features
We aim to build a complete, usable browser for the modern web.
Ladybird uses a multi-process architecture with a main UI process, several WebContent renderer processes, an ImageDecoder process, and a RequestServer process.
Image decoding and network connections are done out of process to be more robust against malicious content. Each tab has its own renderer process, which is sandboxed from the rest of the system.
At the moment, many core library support components are inherited from SerenityOS:
- LibWeb: Web rendering engine
- LibJS: JavaScript engine
- LibWasm: WebAssembly implementation
- LibCrypto/LibTLS: Cryptography primitives and Transport Layer Security
- LibHTTP: HTTP/1.1 client
- LibGfx: 2D Graphics Library, Image Decoding and Rendering
- LibArchive: Archive file format support
- LibUnicode: Unicode and locale support
- LibMedia: Audio and video playback
- LibCore: Event loop, OS abstraction layer
- LibIPC: Inter-process communication
How do I build and run this?
See build instructions for information on how to build Ladybird.
Ladybird runs on Linux, macOS, Windows (with WSL2), and many other *Nixes.
How do I read the documentation?
Code-related documentation can be found in the documentation folder.
