| Rather than trying to retrofit our old implementation, we opted for a complete rewrite this month. The result is a clean, up-to-date implementation that brings our overall [ECMAScript conformance](https://test262.fyi/#) to 97%, the highest of any engine. | ||

| ### Swift language adoption | ||
|
|
||
| We've announced that we're looking at Swift 6 as a possible C++ successor language for the project. This work has largely been exploratory so far, but we're excited about the benefits Swift could bring! | ||
|
|
||
| Initial work into the build system integration has led to some promising prototypes using the C++ interop features of Swift. We're still investigating how to best introduce Swift code into the codebase without causing | ||
| a mad dash to rewrite everything in Swift. | ||
|
|
||
| For more details on how we're approaching this, check out this post we made on the [Swift Forums](https://forums.swift.org/t/ladybird-browser-and-swift-garbage-collection/76084). | ||

| Last month, GitHub held its annual Universe conference in San Francisco, California. We were invited to participate in their Open Source Zone exhibition area, where 5 projects | ||
