Description

Embeds modern web content inside GTK applications, providing the browser engine that renders HTML, CSS, JavaScript, media, and web views. It is used by apps that need sign-in pages, help viewers, embedded browsers, or web-based interfaces.

Most users receive this as a dependency rather than launching it directly. Because it processes web content, security updates matter, and applications using it may load remote pages, handle cookies, or display untrusted content.
