Using WebView2 in DataFlex

Introduction

Today we will demonstrate how to work with the updated WebView component in DataFlex 2022; the WebView2BrowserControl.

This course might be a bit different from our usual style as we are going to build a full control with it using QuillJS. You might recognize QuillJS from our Web course, but using WebView2 we are going to be able to bring a HTML editor to Windows.

This is possible because of the fact that WebView2 is in fact an interfaced version of the full-fledged Edge browser.

Using this interface, we are going to build a wrapper for QuillJS to be used in any Windows application. 

Let’s start this course by jumping straight into the basics of the WebView2 component.
