Cross-platform #

WebBrowser widget is cross-platform:

• In Android and iOS, this package uses webview_flutter, which is maintained by Google.
  • However, webview_flutter does not support browsers.
• In browsers, the package uses package:web_node to display web content inside <iframe>.
  • Only works for websites that allow iframes.
  • Only some navigation features are supported (because of iframe limitations).

Optional navigation widgets #

• Address bar
• Share button
• Back button
• Forward button
