SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

## About Ladybird
Ladybird is a cross-platform independent web browser built from SerenityOS components. It is a separate project from SerenityOS, but it uses the SerenityOS build system and shares much of the same code.
All the browser UI code lives in the Serenity repository under the `Ladybird` directory. The SerenityOS LibGUI port of Ladybird lives in the `Userland/Applications/Browser` directory.
All the implementation details are in the `Userland/Libraries` and `Userland/Services` directories.
See the Ladybird [README.md](Ladybird/README.md) for more information.

## How do I build and run this?
See the [SerenityOS build instructions](https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/blob/master/Documentation/BuildInstructions.md). Serenity runs on Linux, macOS (aarch64 might be a challenge), Windows (with WSL2) and many other *Nixes with hardware or software virtualization.
See the [SerenityOS build instructions](https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/blob/master/Documentation/BuildInstructions.md) or the [Ladybird build instructions](Documentation/BuildInstructionsLadybird.md).
The build system supports a cross-compilation build of SerenityOS from Linux, macOS, Windows (with WSL2) and many other *Nixes.
The default build system commands will launch a QEMU instance running the OS with hardware or software virtualization
enabled as supported.
Ladybird runs on the same platforms that can be the host for a cross build of SerenityOS and on SerenityOS itself.
