Avalonia/WPF control that wraps CefGlue webview control
WebView lets you embed Chromium in .NET apps. It is a .NET wrapper control around [CefGlue](https://github.com/OutSystems/CefGlue) and provides a better and simple API. Likewise CefGlue it can be used from C# or any other CLR language and provides both Avalonia and WPF web browser control implementations.
Here's a table for supported architectures, frameworks and operating systems:
| OS | x64 | ARM64 | WPF | Avalonia |
|---------|-----|-------|-----|----------|
| Windows | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |
| macOS | ✔️ | ✔️ | ❌ | ✔️ |
| Linux | ✔️ | 🔘 | ❌ | ✔️ |
✔️ Supported | ❌ Not supported | 🔘 Works with issues.
See [LINUX.md](https://github.com/OutSystems/CefGlue/blob/main/LINUX.md) for more information about issues and tested distribution list.
Currently only x64 and ARM64 architectures are supported.
It also provides the following additional features:
- Strongly-typed javascript evaluation: results of javascript evaluation returns the appropriate type
- Scripts are aggregated and executed in bulk for improved performance
- Ability to evaluate javascript synchronously
- Javascript error handling with call stack information
- Events to intercept and respond to resources loading
- Events to track file download progress
- Ability to load embedded resources using custom protocols
- Ability to disable history navigation
- Error handling
- Proxy configuration support
- Option to run in [offscreen rendering mode](https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/cef/wiki/GeneralUsage#markdown-header-off-screen-rendering) (not recommended as it has several issues)
## Releases
