• ADBlock engine library implemented with C++
• Adblock Plus (https://adblockplus.org/) compatible
• build as shared library that expose C API

Adblock is a rather complicated component in the web browser and naive implementation will incur startup delay and high runtime memory usage. I wanted more efficient one for my own use. I originally wrote it as building block of Qupzilla's additional plugin. Eventually I graduate Qupzilla and it become component of my own QtWebEngine base browser. Currently it is used as an component of adblockd.
