Its my understanding WebView uses GTK. for ios/kde I don't use WebView

WebView is often used as a generic term for any embedded web browser.

Web UI is not native UI, even if it's technically embedded in a GTK/etc app. Native UI would be using the platform's native controls.

This project looks more similar to Tauri[0] than anything related to native UI.

I’m aware. I don’t like rust though

It's ok not to like Rust.

But that doesn't make your library native at all — just as Tauri is not native, neither is Sans, and that is the point being made here.

Yeah I guess I misunderstood what webview2 does. I thought it created native controls.

GTK WebView (using WebKit) can use GTK to draw certain widgets (aka buttons) but that's about it, and I think this might of been removed.

It's not native.

Interesting.
