It provides an embeddable web view and JavaScript engine bindings for Linux and other GTK-based systems, serving applications that need anything from a small HTML/CSS UI surface to a full browser. ### プロジェクトの歴史 The old WebKit wiki described the GTK port as a browser component for the portable GTK UI toolkit, developed inside the official WebKit source tree and covered by WebKit buildbots and layout tests. That placement made WebKitGTK part of the upstream browser-engine project rather than a separate downstream fork. The WebKitGTK project site, copyrighting the WebKitGTK Team from 2009 onward, presents the port as a full-featured WebKit rendering engine for hybrid applications, browsers, desktop computers, and embedded devices. It also identifies WebKitGTK as the official web engine of the GNOME platform and lists GNOME Web/Epiphany among browsers using it. A major transition arrived with WebKitGTK+ 2.0.0 on March 31, 2013. That first stable 2.0 release built both WebKit1 and WebKit2 APIs by default, declared WebKit2 stable from an API/ABI compatibility perspective, and moved WebKit1 into maintenance mode. The shift aligned GTK embedding with WebKit's multiprocess architecture, improving isolation between web content and application UI. ### 採用の歴史 WebKitGTK became important because Linux desktop applications needed an embeddable, maintained browser engine that matched GTK conventions. GNOME's use made it part of the default stack for applications that display web content, and the project has kept a stable-release process with security advisories for distributions and application maintainers. The API-version story reflects both long-term compatibility and platform churn. As summarized by GNOME/WebKit maintainer Michael Catanzaro in 2025, supported upstream API versions included `webkit2gtk-4.0` for GTK 3 with libsoup 2, `webkit2gtk-4.1` for GTK 3 with libsoup 3, and `webkitgtk-6.0` for GTK 4. That history matters to packagers because different Linux distributions have carried different binary package names for the same API families. ### 使われ方 Application developers use WebKitGTK to embed web content in GTK applications through stable C/GObject APIs. Typical uses include full browsers, documentation viewers, OAuth/login panes, desktop apps with HTML front ends, and embedded-device UIs that want WebKit's web-platform implementation without shipping a separate browser. The modern WebKit2-style architecture separates web processes from the UI process, so a page crash or hang is less likely to bring down the embedding application. The project site also highlights GStreamer-backed media, accessibility work, GPU compositing, CSS transforms, and WebGL as part of the port's role as a complete web-platform component. ### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性 For package maintainers, WebKitGTK is a high-impact dependency because it is both a developer library and a browser engine with a security-update cadence. Its API names, GTK generation, libsoup generation, and distribution package names have real consequences for build compatibility across GNOME, Fedora, Debian, Homebrew, and smaller ports. It is also one of the packages where the package name is history: `webkitgtk`, `webkit2gtk-4.0`, `webkit2gtk-4.1`, and `webkitgtk-6.0` encode shifts from WebKit1 to WebKit2, GTK 3 to GTK 4, and libsoup 2 to libsoup 3. ### タイムライン - 2009: WebKitGTK project site copyright period begins for the WebKitGTK Team. - 2013-03-31: WebKitGTK+ 2.0.0 released; WebKit2 API considered stable and WebKit1 moved to maintenance mode. - 2014-09-24: WebKitGTK+ 2.6.0 released, part of the era that introduced the long-lived `webkit2gtk-4.0` API family. - 2021: WebKitGTK 2.32 introduced the `webkit2gtk-4.1` API family for GTK 3 with libsoup 3. - 2023: WebKitGTK 2.40 introduced the `webkitgtk-6.0` API family for GTK 4. - 2026-06-23: WebKitGTK 2.53.4 listed as the current unstable release on the project site. ### Related projects - WebKitGTK is part of the broader WebKit project and is closely tied to GNOME, GTK, GObject, JavaScriptCore, GStreamer, libsoup, and GNOME Web/Epiphany. Its sibling WPE WebKit targets embedded and appliance-style environments. ### ソース - - - - - - ## セキュリティノート narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger リスク:** グリーン / 低 - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## 他のパッケージマネージャ記録 - dnf - javascriptcoregtk4.1 - 2.53.4-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: javascriptcoregtk4.1 from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | JavaScript engine from webkit2gtk4.1 | https://www.webkitgtk.org/ - dnf - javascriptcoregtk4.1-devel - 2.53.4-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: javascriptcoregtk4.1-devel from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | Development files for JavaScript engine from webkit2gtk4.1 | https://www.webkitgtk.org/ - dnf - javascriptcoregtk6.0 - 2.53.4-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: javascriptcoregtk6.0 from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | JavaScript engine from webkitgtk6.0 | https://www.webkitgtk.org/ - dnf - javascriptcoregtk6.0-devel - 2.53.4-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: javascriptcoregtk6.0-devel from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | Development files for JavaScript engine from webkitgtk6.0 | https://www.webkitgtk.org/ - dnf - webkit2gtk4.1 - 2.53.4-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: webkit2gtk4.1 from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | WebKitGTK for GTK 3 and libsoup 3 | https://www.webkitgtk.org/ - dnf - webkit2gtk4.1-devel - 2.53.4-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: webkit2gtk4.1-devel from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | Development files for webkit2gtk4.1 | https://www.webkitgtk.org/ - dnf - webkit2gtk4.1-doc - 2.53.4-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: webkit2gtk4.1-doc from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | Documentation files for webkit2gtk4.1 | https://www.webkitgtk.org/ - dnf - webkitgtk6.0 - 2.53.4-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: webkitgtk6.0 from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | WebKitGTK for GTK 4 | https://www.webkitgtk.org/ - dnf - webkitgtk6.0-devel - 2.53.4-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: webkitgtk6.0-devel from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | Development files for webkitgtk6.0 | https://www.webkitgtk.org/ - dnf - webkitgtk6.0-doc - 2.53.4-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: webkitgtk6.0-doc from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | Documentation files for webkit2gtk5.0 | https://www.webkitgtk.org/ ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
