Webview Bundle logowebview-bundle

Communicate between native and webview

To use native features from web code in the webview, you communicate with the native side. Webview Bundle provides a bridge for this.

Call the bridge

In the webview, call native features with invoke(name, params) from the unified bridge package @wvb/bridge.

A handler registered on the native side processes the call and returns a result. The delivery mechanism per platform and framework is as follows.

  • Electron — Electron IPC
  • Tauri — Tauri command
  • Android — WebView message listener (WebViewCompat.addWebMessageListener)
  • iOS — WKScriptMessageHandler

For details on using the bridge API, see the Bridges guide.
