Software:WebView
From HandWiki
A WebView is a web browser that is embedded within an app. Thus a WebView is a large-scale software component, enabling the use of web content within apps.[1] In some cases, the entire functionality of the app is implemented this way.
The prominent ones are bundled in operating systems:
- Android System WebView, based on Google Chrome[2]
- Apple's WebView for its devices, based on its Safari browser[1]
- Microsoft Edge WebView2[3]
Other examples are Microsoft's legacy WebView, based on its deprecated EdgeHTML and MSHTML engines, and the WebView component in JavaFX.
