| # Browser APIS |
| |
| This component exposes a set of WebUI APIs for the browser functionality. These |
| APIs may be used by any WebUI clients, so that they do not need to define their |
| own bespoke APIs when implementing a page. |
| |
| Note that this directory should only contain the API mojom definitions and |
| typemapping code. It should not contain implementation code. Implementation code |
| and binding logic should reside in the embedders (e.g. //chrome). At a high |
| level, this is the general layering of the APIs. |
| |
| ------------ |
| | Clients | |
| ------------ |
| | API defs | <-- contained in this component. |
| ------------------ <-- abstraction point. |
| | API impl | <-- resides in the embedder. |
| ----------- |
| | Models | <-- embedder specific. |
| ------------ |
| |
| The APIs should be agnostic of the underlying embedder and should be flexible enough |
| to present different underlying models. Clients should not have to modify their code |
| to work with different embedders. |
