Switching from Webview to Geckoview

One of the most important and significant changes is the replacement of Webview by Geckoview, Mozilla’s Gecko component for Android. This change brings with it many changes, and we explain the differences in the text site: Android offers an integrated WebView, to which applications They can be connected to display web pages within the context of your application. However, Android’s WebView is not really designed for building browsers and therefore many advanced web APIs are disabled. Furthermore, it is also a component under a lot of changes: That’s where GeckoView comes into play. GeckoView is designed to expose the full power of the Web to applications, all through a simple API. Think of it as harnessing the full power of Gecko, while its API is WebView-like and easy to use. Suitable for applications and browsers: GeckoView is particularly suitable for creating mobile browsers, but can be integrated as a web engine component in any type of application. Self-contained: Because GeckoView is a standalone library that ships with your application, you can be sure that the code you test is the code that will actually run. Meets standards. With this change Midori will increase its weight when downloading and downloading the application but will gain greater security, greater speed and compatibility with the web.
