  • webview

    Tiny cross-platform webview library for C/C++. Uses WebKit (GTK/Cocoa) and Edge WebView2 (Windows).

  • You can create the webview using each platforms native GUI toolkit and setup JS communication yourself OR you can use a lightweight library that does it for [1] (search its README for language "bindings").

  • That Github they linked in the article with 1,600 (!!!) npm dependencies. Out of all of the programs ever written, this is certainly one of them. I am sorry to the programmer and this is not meant to be a slight on them, but holy moly.
