# Qt WebView

Qt WebView provides a way to display web content in a QML application without necessarily including a full web browser stack by using native APIs where it makes sense.

This is useful on mobile platforms such as Android, iOS, and WinRT; especially on iOS, where policy dictates that all web content is displayed using the operating system's web view.

## Prerequisites

To make the Qt WebView module function correctly across all platforms, it's necessary to call QtWebView::initialize() right after creating the QGuiApplication instance.

## QML Types

The module provides a single QML component for displaying web content in the application: WebView.

## Limitations

Due to platform limitations, overlapping the WebView with other QML components is not supported. Doing this will have unpredictable results which may differ from platform to platform.

## Examples

Take a look at the Qt WebView Examples for a demonstration on how the APIs can be used in applications.
