# SwiftUI WebView

[#swift](https://dev.to/t/swift)[#swiftui](https://dev.to/t/swiftui)[#webview](https://dev.to/t/webview)

At WWDC 2025, Apple announced that SwiftUI would now have its own `WebView`. I touched on this briefly in my [SwiftUI for Mac 2025](https://troz.net/post/2025/swiftui-mac-2025/#web-view) article, but this view has a lot of features that I wanted to explore and document.

My primary source was the WWDC video: [Meet WebKit for SwiftUI](https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/231) but as usual, there is a lot of detail hidden in the video and some of the sample code doesn't work in the later betas. I'm currently using macOS Tahoe 26 beta 7 and Xcode 26 beta 6.

I've written a sample app demonstrating various aspects of the new `WebView`, which you can download from [GitHub](https://github.com/trozware/swiftui-webview). This will let you follow along with my descriptions below. The numbered sections in this article correspond to the files in the **WebView Samples** folder of the project.
