Why not just fork Firefox?


Why learn to play an instrument when you can just buy a CD?

The goal is not to have a browser, but to build one. This browser is affiliated with the SerenityOS project, which is reimplementing an entire desktop OS and all applications from scratch.


I agree. Can someone explain why this is not a good solution?


> Also, since Ladybird is an offshoot from the SerenityOS project, it shares the same culture of accountability and self-reliance. We avoid 3rd party dependencies and build everything ourselves. In part because it’s fun, but also because it creates total accountability for what goes into our software.
