The algorithm is ported over from Chromium's, which produces very good results for speech, while being not objectionable for music, especially in the background. Other algorithms were tested. Phase vocoders: - Bungee - Signalsmith Stretch - pvdoneright All three of these exhibited the usual phase shifting artifacts, causing speech to sound slightly shifted into the high end. Speech is the main thing we want to optimize for, so these aren't ideal. Sonic (TD-PSOLA) performs better than WSOLA for speech, especially at rates higher than 2x, but makes background sounds/music garbled and unpleasant. It is still worth considering for speech clarity, and could be added as an optional feature. |

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
- LibUnicode: Unicode and locale support
- 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.
How do I read the documentation?
Code-related documentation can be found in the documentation folder.
