@section{Overview}

Racket Webview is a class-oriented webview library built on top of a Qt-based
native runtime.

The library is layered. At the lowest level a native FFI layer is used. On top
of that, @racketmodname[racket-webview] provides a functional API. The
class-oriented API described in this manual is built from smaller modules on top
of that layer.

@section{Core Concepts}

The library is structured around two main concepts:

@itemlist[#:style 'compact
 @item{a context, representing an isolated runtime with its own local HTTPS server}
 @item{a window, representing a webview instance within such a context}]

A context manages local file serving, certificates, and settings. A window loads
content, handles events, and provides access to DOM elements.

@section{Modules}

The public API is divided into the following modules:

@itemlist[#:style 'compact
 @item{@racketmodname[wv-context] — context creation and settings access}
 @item{@racketmodname[wv-window] — window lifecycle, events, navigation, and dialogs}
 @item{@racketmodname[wv-element] — DOM element wrapper}
 @item{@racketmodname[wv-input] — typed input-element wrappers}
 @item{@racketmodname[wv-dialog] — dialog windows}
 @item{@racketmodname[wv-settings] — settings wrapper}
 @item{@racketmodname[rgba] — RGBA color values}
 @item{@racketmodname[mimetypes] — MIME type lookup}]

@section{Typical Usage}

A typical application creates a @racket[wv-context%] object and then creates one
or more @racket[wv-window%] objects within that context. DOM elements are
retrieved using @racket[(send window element 'id)], after which their state can
be read or modified using the element and input wrapper classes. Interaction
with the browser is handled through event callbacks and bindings.
