Get Started with WPEwebkit

Grab the code

If you’re an experienced embedded engineer, you’ll most likely want to grab the code and build and tune WPE for your specific needs.

Easy pre-builts

We’ve also tried to make it easy for developers who aren’t comfortable building entire embedded systems to get their hands on something where they can begin exploring and learning useful things. Our easy prebuilts do just that - they won’t be well optimized in the way a final product usually is, but they’re nonetheless very useful.

If you find any problem or want to know more about optimizing WPE for your hardware or use cases, please contact us.
