What is lexbor?

We build a web browser engine available as a software library; it ships under the Apache 2.0 license and has no extra dependencies.

Our Goals

SPEED

For us, speed is an absolute must. Our development process is focused on fastest HTML, CSS, and font parsing; fastest data processing; and fastest ways to serve end user content.

Whether you are building a backend to serve millions of HTML documents or a UI-heavy app, your response rates always stay our top priority.

INTEGRATION

The code is optimized for ease of access in end-user applications, across varied programming languages.

To put it simply, lexbor offers a feature-rich core that you can build upon as you wish to. Need to build a Python wrapper to power your frontend or backend apps in a new environment? No problem.

PORTABILITY

From the very start, we focus on availability and support in vastly different environments.

When you use lexbor, you need not worry about your app’s portability; from the ground up, we designed lexbor for wide support across various computing platforms and IoT devices.

CLARITY

An easy-to-use, simple, comprehensible API is our key to fast and safe software development.

Offering you a degree of flexibility you always wished for, lexbor's API enables fine-tuning HTML processing just the way you want it.

Articles

In this article, I will tell you how to create a superfast HTML parser supporting DOM. We will look at the HTML specification and its disadvantages in terms of performance and resource consumption during HTML parsing.

I assume the reader has a basic knowledge of HTML: tags, nodes, elements, and namespace.
