This is a locally maintained fork of [go-webview2](https://github.com/jchv/go-webview2)
that is intended to be used with Wails applications. It is not intended to be used
as a standalone package.

Original README.md follows:

# go-webview2

This is a proof of concept for embedding Webview2 into Go without CGo. It is based
on [webview/webview](https://github.com/webview/webview) and provides a compatible API.

## Notice

Because this version doesn't currently have an EdgeHTML fallback, it will not work unless you have a Webview2 runtime
installed. In addition, it requires the Webview2Loader DLL in order to function. Adding an EdgeHTML fallback should be
technically possible but will likely require much worse hacks since the API is not strictly COM to my knowledge.

## Demo

For now, you'll need to install the Webview2 runtime, as it does not ship with Windows.

[WebView2 runtime](https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/)

After that, you should be able to run go-webview2 directly:

```
go run go-webview2/cmd/demo
```

This will use go-winloader to load an embedded copy of WebView2Loader.dll.

If this does not work, please try running from a directory that has an appropriate copy of `WebView2Loader.dll` for your
GOARCH. If _that_ worked, *please* file a bug so we can figure out what's wrong with go-winloader :)
