Binary releases

Question

First of all, congratulations on creating a new web browser from scratch!

Could you please provide binary releases for x86(-64) in order to quickly test Ladybird Browser in Linux/Windows? Thanks!

Hi, please take a look at the rationale for not providing binary packages here:

Additionally, the Serenity LibWeb does not currently compile on Windows. If you want to compile on a Windows machine, you should use WSL2.

I was able to build Ladybird in WSL2, see the screenshot. It scores 232 points in HTML5Test. I even made an AppImage x64 bundle, which you can download here, based on this appimage-builder recipe. Enjoy!

@89z Nobody said that it works in Windows. I wrote that I've built it in WSL2.

Just a heads up for Arch Linux users: Ladybird now has an official package!

No official binary releases planned, folks are of course welcome to redistribute their own builds.

There is cosmogfx library based on Cosmopolitan Libc which builds cross-platform single-file graphical apps. Maybe it can help?
