Hi Alejandro porting applications to ubuntu oxide, the chromium fork for ubuntu touch, was really nice and straightforward. QtWebkit has many problems, the worst one is that it even doesn't support the metadata viewport directive (i.e. this one: <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no">). This makes porting HTML5 applications to Jolla really hard.
QtWebEngine should support this (at least, I hope so, since it is based on chromium). 2015-01-14 21:42 GMT+01:00 Alejandro Exojo <s...@badopi.org>: > El Tuesday 13 January 2015, Daniel Beck escribió: > > Hello, > > > > Qt 5.4 introduces the new Qt Webengine.
