  • Almost all of the major WebView implementations I can think of are open source:

    • WKWebView (iOS, macOS): https://github.com/WebKit/webkit/blob/main/Source/WebKit/UIP...

    • Android WebView: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/...

    • Mozilla GeckoView: https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev/tree/master/mobile/andr...

    • Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF): https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/cef/src/master/

    The main ones that aren't open source are the Windows WebView and WebView2 components.
