Ad blocking filters emerged many years ago, initially functioning as simple lists of addresses. Over the years, these filters have evolved to become significantly more complex, to the point where their complexity is comparable to a programming language. In the world of programming, there's a whole arsenal of utilities designed to help write code more efficiently and without errors. But why haven't there been similar assistant tools for ad-blocking filters? In this presentation, Dávid Tóta explains AdGuard addressed this gap and how our solutions are already assisting filter developers.

David Tóta is a senior software developer at AdGuard.
