Crate browser_window

Browser Window is a Rust crate that allows you to have and manipulate windows with browsers in them. Just like Electron, you can build graphical user interfaces with HTML/CSS/JS technology, but you can also use it to just have some browser functionality in your application.

To start using Browser Window, you need to start it (before anything else) and run it, preferably on the main thread.

Your program might look something like this:

use browser_window::*;
use std::process::exit;

fn main() {
	let runtime = Runtime::start();

	let app = runtime.app();
	let exit_code = runtime.spawn(async move {

		let browser = BrowserWindowBuilder::new( Source::Url("https://www.duckduckgo.com/".into()) )
			.build( app ).await;

		browser.exec_js("document.getElementById('search_form_input_homepage').value = 'Hello World!'").await;
	});

	exit( exit_code );
}

For an more elaborate example, see this example code.
