Ladybird is a truly independent web browser built on a novel engine written from scratch based on web standards, with no forks of existing engines. It uses a multi-process, sandboxed architecture and is developed by a non-profit, currently in pre-alpha with an Alpha targeted for 2026.
Use cases
- browse the web with a browser not controlled by a big tech company
- test web standards compliance against an independent engine
- contribute to or study a from-scratch browser engine codebase
- develop and debug web content with a new rendering engine
- run a privacy-focused browser with no monetization incentives
When to choose
- you want to support or develop an independent, non-fork browser engine
- you are a developer interested in browser internals, JS engines, or rendering
- you need a cross-platform browser on Linux, macOS, or Windows (WSL2) for testing
When to avoid
- you need a daily-driver browser with full modern web compatibility today
- you require extensive extension ecosystem support
- you need production stability or enterprise support
