Description Santosh Mahto 2020-04-27 00:38:52 PDT

This wpe extension adds new gtk widget called GtkWpeView based on wpe and wpebackend-fdo. This is similar to Qt based extension for WPE.

We can use this extension to add WPE based webview in gtk environment.

This patch is mostly done but still require some cleanup and proper style adjustment which I am doing it now, but I would be thankful if someone can review
this and add comment on it to improve this patch.

Thanks in advance

What is the motivation for this? Can't you ... simply use... WebKitGTK?

Comment 4 Philippe Normand 2020-04-27 08:09:17 PDT

Looks like you copied the approach from QtWPE, for which I see reasons to exist. But a GTK WPE extension doesn't seem useful because we have a lively and maintained GTK port.
