Taking from Tauri [1], which tries to use native rendering engines too, it's WebKitGTK [2]. I thought that only OSX and mobile OS had an integrated rendering engine to call it native, though.

this is also what epiphany (GNOME Web) uses for rendering.

Which isn't there outside GTK-based environments.

It's not like it can't be installed. I use KDE at home, but I have quite a few GTK apps installed.

You're joking right? GTK apps work just fine outside of "gtkbased environments". They have since the beginning. Some may not have the styling of their DE but they run just fine. I use Gimp and Meld all over the place, including on windows without any issues.

I think he mean that it's not preinstalled on not "gtk based environments"
