Native Webview for Windows and MacOS application

#1

Hello,
i was looking to display and interact with a website within a openFl application.
I found https://lib.haxe.org/p/extension-webview/
which is for Android and iOS.
What would be the solution for desktop?

Thanks!

Writing a native extension for a webview on the desktop has not been done (that I know of) but would be technically achievable.

Another approach is using the Adobe AIR or Electron target to better integrate web content with your application. AIR supports a desktop webview and Electron is a webview.

Thank you.
Well I was trying to find a replacement for AIR hence me gravitating towards Haxe openFL for the current project. However it seems that Air would be a better solution for now.

You could always use Haxe, OpenFL and AIR :slight_smile:
