My take on embedded webkit for .net (based on open-webkit-sharp, which is based on webkit.net) in 2014.

I think the universe is moving to the web and web based apps. I want to write a single web based app and have it run everywhere. But I want the desktop-web-based app to be able to access some OS features.

When I tried Open-Webkit-Sharp (last updated in 2012) did not compile out of the box and had odd binary and release folders everywhere. But still used the “binary” folder. I made it put all the binaries in the binary folder. (Some one already ranted about this here.

While Webkit.net the original project did not have many of the “private” methods of webkit exposed to be used. So it was not as powerful as open-webkit-sharp. It had problems shopping the developer tools which I need to develop Desktop-web hybrids.

I hope you may find this helps you some how.
