Adding a new IDL file

Serenity's build system does a lot of work of turning the IDL from a Web spec into code, but there are a few things you'll need to do yourself.

For the sake of example, let's say you're wanting to add the HTMLDetailsElement.

Create LibWeb/HTML/HTMLDetailsElement.idl with the contents of the IDL section of the spec. In this case, that would be:

[Exposed=Window]
interface HTMLDetailsElement : HTMLElement {
    [HTMLConstructor] constructor();

    [CEReactions] attribute boolean open;
};

If the IDL refers to other IDL types, you need to import those. For example, CSSRule has an attribute that returns a CSSStyleSheet, so that needs to be imported:

#import <CSS/CSSStyleSheet.idl>

interface CSSRule {
    readonly attribute CSSStyleSheet? parentStyleSheet;
};

Add a libweb_js_bindings(HTML/HTMLDetailsElement) call to LibWeb/idl_files.cmake
Forward declare the generated class in LibWeb/Forward.h:
- HTMLDetailsElement in its namespace.
If your type isn't an Event or Element, you will need to add it to is_platform_object() so that it can be accepted as an IDL parameter, attribute or return type.
