The Ladybird browser project (ladybird.dev)

Ladybird is an ongoing project to build an independent web browser from scratch.

It is being developed as part of the SerenityOS/serenity project on GitHub.

There are no downloadable binaries yet, as the project is still very unstable. You can follow the build instructions to build it for yourself.

This page is not fancy because we are focusing on building the browser. :^)

Since Ladybird is part of the SerenityOS project, development is coordinated on the SerenityOS discord server.

Also, is there any plan to provide binaries and builds? Especially for Android, for example, via F-Droid?

F-Droid does not ship binaries. You submit code to be built by F-Droid. This is its strength and also weakness. IzzyOnDroid just pulls in Github releases, which is pretty cool.

IzzyEnDroid docs don’t say they are limited to MS GitHub

The point is that the releases are signed by developers so they cannot be easily faked

Then you should drop the specific name drop of a proprietary platform when a generic option like code repository or software forge could suffice.

It was just my info that they directly use Github releases. Shipping binary packages next to the codebase is something specific for Github and a few other platforms.
