Embedding WebViews

Cordova applications are ordinarily implemented as a browser-based WebView within the native mobile platform. This section shows how, for supporting platforms, to create your own WebView components that make full use of Cordova APIs. You can then deploy these Cordova application components along with native components in a hybrid application.

To deploy a WebView, you need to be familiar with each native programming environment. The following provides instructions for supported platforms:

  • Amazon Fire OS WebViews
  • Android WebViews
  • iOS WebViews
  • Windows Phone 8.0 WebViews
