WebViewversio
WebViewversio is a hypothetical cross-platform specification and reference implementation for versioning and coordinating embedded web rendering engines, known as WebViews, across mobile, desktop, and embedded systems. The project aims to standardize how WebView engines are identified, updated, and interacted with by applications, enabling consistent feature support and security updates regardless of platform.
The primary goal is to reduce fragmentation caused by divergent engine versions shipped with apps and operating
Key components include a version metadata schema with MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, an optional feature flags set, a compatibility
WebViewversio uses a centralized registry to map engine versions to compatibility profiles. Minor updates can introduce
As a hypothetical standard, WebViewversio envisions governance by a consortium of platform vendors and open-source projects.
Security considerations include signed manifests, secure download channels, and integrity verification. The specification discourages forced updates
