WebView Multiplatform Mobile

WebView Multiplatform Mobile is a cross-platform library that provides a simple and convenient way to embed web content into your Android and iOS applications. Based on CustomTabs in Android and SFSafariViewController in iOS, the library ensures safe and fast interaction with web content while maintaining the native user interface and performance.

Here's an example of how WebView looks

🔥 Features:

• Cross-platform compatibility: Support for Android and iOS to ensure a unified web content embedding experience.
• Integration with CustomTabs (Android) and SFSafariViewController (iOS): Utilize standard components of each platform for optimal performance and security.
• Ease of use: An intuitive API interface makes embedding web content easy and efficient for developers, with settings for each platform inspired by the Compose Modifier philosophy from Jetpack Compose.
