ayeteadoe 5279e0ce73 CMake: Remove ENABLE_WINDOWS_CI option and adjust presets to match Unix
ENABLE_WINDOWS_CI and the *_CI presets were initially added back when
the AK library and all the AK Test* executables were the only targets
that supported building and running in CI. Since then, almost all the
targets in the codebase are built on Windows besides the following:
    - LibLine
    - test-262-runner

Since these targets above are not required to actually run or test the
browser on Windows in its current experimental state, fully disabling
them should be fine for now.

ENABLE_WINDOWS_CI was also used to exclude test-web from ctest. This
can be fully disabled on Windows for now until proper runtime support
is added.

The remaining locations were all using ENABLE_WINDOWS_CI as a proxy for
ENABLE_ADDRESS_SANITIZER, so we can just be explicit instead.

The new presets map much more directly to the unix Release, Debug, and
Sanitizer presets which should make setting up ladybird on Windows less
confusing.

We also make the new Windows_Experimental_Release preset the default in
ladybird.py to match Unix.

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.
