Work on the `document.execCommand()` API has started, beginning with basic commands like `delete`. This lays the groundwork for future rich-text editing support.

### Swift Adoption

We've announced that we're looking at Swift 6 as a possible C++ successor language to integrate into the project. This work has largely been exploratory so far, but we're excited about the potential benefits Swift could bring.
Initial work into the build system integration has led to some promising prototypes using the C++ Interoperability 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).

### Ladybird at GitHub Universe

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
each day of the conference had a booth to showcase their project.

We had a great time talking to attendees about Ladybird and showing off some of the cool features we've been working on.
The highlights of the conference were the time we had to chat with GitHub's Open Source Developer Relations team, and the opportunity to meet some of the other projects in the Open Source Zone.
Make sure to check out the [Home Assistant blog post](https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2024/11/18/event-wrapup-github-universe-24/) about their time at the event!
