Currently, invoking StringBuilder::to_string will re-allocate the string data to construct the String. This is wasteful both in terms of memory and speed. The goal here is to simply hand the string buffer over to String, and let String take ownership of that buffer. To do this, StringBuilder must have the same memory layout as Detail::StringData. This layout is just the members of the StringData class followed by the string itself. So when a StringBuilder is created, we reserve sizeof(StringData) bytes at the front of the buffer. StringData can then construct itself into the buffer with placement new. Things to note: * StringData must now be aware of the actual capacity of its buffer, as that can be larger than the string size. * We must take care not to pass ownership of inlined string buffers, as these live on the stack. |

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
- LibAudio, 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.
