A YouTube Replayer built with the Microsoft Edge WebView2 control.
Inspired by WebView2Browser, WV2YTR is a sample Windows desktop application demonstrating the WebView2 control capabilities. It is built as a Win32 Visual Studio 2019 (v16.3 Preview 3) project with WebView2 to power its features.
This programme shows some of the simplest uses of WebView2, such as creating and navigating a WebView. In the traditional WebView (with Internet Explorer engine), it is not possible to loop YouTube video with its embed URL. Hence, now with WebView2, this feature is finally possible.
- Microsoft Edge (Chromium) installed on a supported OS.
- Visual Studio with C++ support installed.
This project will continue to evolve. We will do modifications all the time to include other exciting features.
Any help will be appreciated. You can develop new features, fix bugs, improve the documentation, or do some other cool stuff.
If you have new ideas or want to complain about bugs, feel free to create a new issue.
