webview

Janet bindings to the webview project. Use an embedded browser view to build UI with minimal dependencies.

Building

To build, one must have janet installed on their system.

So far, these bindings have only been tested on linux, but should work on macos and windows with some debugging.

Use the build.janet script to build the file webview.so on macos and linux, and webview.dll on windows.

jpm build

Testing

Run a sample application that opens Hacker News with

jpm test
