alt Hacker NewsThis is pretty interesting! I've created a web browser for GoNix (https://gonix.dev) using the CEF (Chromium Embedded Framework), which works quite well, but requires shared memory and a pipe, but embedding Chromium as a library sounds even more intriguing. I might give this a go! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! I'd be interested to hear how it works out for GoNix.
One clarification: Zebkit still uses Chromium's sandboxed renderer processes and shared memory internally. The embedding interface is a C API: your application links the library, keeps its own window and event loop, and can either embed a web view or receive off-screen frames to draw itself.
There's no Go binding yet, but the C API should be usable through cgo. If you give it a try, I'd love to hear where it fits your setup and where the integration gets awkward. Thanks for sharing your use case!
