Welcome to the Litrl Browser wiki!

The Litrl Browser incorporates LiT.RL's (Language and Information Technology Research Lab, FIMS, Western University) deception detectors for clickbait, satire, and falsifications into an easy-to-use standalone browser that visually identifies these similar using different colors, sort of like a traffic stop-light. Please remember that these detectors are not perfect and that digital literacy is key for evaluating misinformation online.

If you would like more information about using the browser, and how different parts of it work, see "Using Litrl Browser."

If you are interested in a high-level overview of the code and the project, see "Functionality and Accuracy Levels."

If you are interested in contributing, see the "Community Guidelines" page.

If you are not sure how to build the project, see "Development and Build Process."
