| # Android WebView |
| |
| Android WebView is an Android system component for displaying web content. |
| [WebView](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView) (and |
| the [related Android classes][1]) are implemented by the code in the |
| `//android_webview/` folder. |
| |
| This directory contains the Android WebView implementation, as well as the |
| implementation for the [AndroidX Webkit support library][2]. |
