wry
A cross-platform WebView rendering library in Rust for building desktop and mobile applications.
What is wry?
Wry is a cross-platform WebView rendering library written in Rust that allows developers to embed web content into native desktop and mobile applications. It provides a unified API to create WebViews across Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS, abstracting away the underlying platform-specific WebView engines like WebView2, WebKit, and WebKitGTK.
Rust developers building cross-platform desktop or mobile applications that need to embed web content, particularly those using the Tauri framework or windowing libraries like tao and winit.
Developers choose Wry for its type-safe Rust API, consistent cross-platform behavior, and tight integration with the Rust ecosystem. It offers fine-grained control over WebView features while maintaining minimal overhead compared to heavier Electron-like solutions.
