+# WebContentsView for Wails v3
+
+`WebContentsView` is an implementation of Electron's `WebContentsView` (formerly `BrowserView`) for Wails v3. It allows you to embed a fully native, secondary OS-level Webview directly over your Wails application UI.
+
+Unlike a standard HTML `<iframe>`, this native view:
+- Bypasses restrictive `X-Frame-Options` and `Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors` headers.
+- Can have web security (CORS) disabled independently of the main Wails app context.
+- Maintains its own session, cookies, and caching behavior.
+- Renders with native performance using the OS's underlying web engine (WKWebView on macOS, WebView2 on Windows, WebKitGTK on Linux).
+
+## Architecture
+
+The module is built with a clean separation between the Go API and the platform-specific native implementations.
+
+### 1. Go API Layer
+The `webcontentsview` package exposes a structured API for managing the view lifecycle.
+- **`NewWebContentsView(options)`**: Initializes the native OS webview but does not display it.
+- **`Attach(window)`**: Mounts the webview to the provided Wails `application.Window` using its raw `NativeWindow()` pointer.
+- **`SetBounds(rect)`**: Dynamically positions and sizes the view.
+- **`SetURL(url)`**: Navigates the view.
+- **`ExecJS(js)`**: Evaluates JavaScript inside the context of the secondary view.
+- **`Detach()`**: Unmounts and hides the view.
+
+### 2. Platform Specific Implementations
+*   **macOS (`webcontentsview_darwin.m`)**: Creates a `WKWebView` via Objective-C. When attached, it gets added as a subview to the `NSWindow`'s `contentView`. To ensure it sits above the main Wails UI, it is backed by a CoreAnimation layer (`wantsLayer = YES`) and assigned an astronomical z-index (`zPosition = 9999.0`). It automatically adjusts web coordinates (top-left) to Cocoa coordinates (bottom-left).
+*   **Windows (`webcontentsview_windows.go`)**: Leverages the `github.com/wailsapp/go-webview2/pkg/edge` package to create an `edge.Chromium` instance, embedding it directly into the parent window's `HWND`.
+*   **Linux (`webcontentsview_linux.go`)**: Uses CGO and GTK to create a `WebKitSettings` and `GtkWidget` webview, packing it into the main `GtkBox` container.
+
+### 3. Web Preferences
+Inspired by Electron, `WebContentsViewOptions` accepts a `WebPreferences` struct. This passes down to `WKPreferences` / `ICoreWebView2Settings` to configure behavior:
+- `DevTools`: Enable/disable the web inspector.
+- `Javascript`: Enable/disable JS execution.
+- `WebSecurity`: Disables cross-origin restrictions and allows local file URL access (crucial for local-dev previewing).
+- `ZoomFactor`: Scales the viewport.
+
+---
+
+## Usage Guide
+
+To use `WebContentsView`, you must coordinate between your Go backend and your JavaScript/React frontend.
+
+### 1. Go Backend setup
+Add the bridge methods to your Wails `App` struct so the frontend can control the view:
+
+```go
+import (
+	"github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+	"github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/webcontentsview"
+)
+
+var browserView *webcontentsview.WebContentsView
+
+func (a *App) InitBrowserView(x, y, width, height int, url string) {
+	// ALL UI creation MUST happen on the main thread
+	application.InvokeSync(func() {
+		browserView = webcontentsview.NewWebContentsView(webcontentsview.WebContentsViewOptions{
+			URL: url,
+			Bounds: application.Rect{ X: x, Y: y, Width: width, Height: height },
+			WebPreferences: webcontentsview.WebPreferences{
+				DevTools:    application.Enabled,
+				Javascript:  application.Enabled,
+				WebSecurity: application.Disabled, // Ideal for bypassing CORS during local dev
+			},
+		})
+		browserView.Attach(a.mainWindow)
+	})
+}
+
+func (a *App) SetBrowserViewBounds(x, y, width, height int) {
+	application.InvokeSync(func() {
+		browserView.SetBounds(application.Rect{ X: x, Y: y, Width: width, Height: height })
+	})
+}
+```
+
+### 2. React Frontend setup
+Instead of an `<iframe>`, render an empty `<div>` in React to act as a placeholder. Use a `ResizeObserver` to track the exact screen coordinates of the `<div>` and send them to the Go backend. Go will physically move the native window over the empty space.
+
+```tsx
+import { useRef, useEffect, useLayoutEffect } from "react";
+import { desktopAPI } from "@/features/desktop/api";
+
+export default function BrowserTab({ active, url }) {
+  const containerRef = useRef<HTMLDivElement>(null);
+  const isInitializedRef = useRef(false);
+
+  const updateBounds = () => {
+    if (!containerRef.current) return;
+    const rect = containerRef.current.getBoundingClientRect();
+    
+    // Hide by setting dimensions to 0 when inactive
+    if (!active || rect.width === 0) {
+      desktopAPI.setBrowserViewBounds(0, 0, 0, 0);
+      return;
+    }
+
+    desktopAPI.setBrowserViewBounds(
+      Math.round(rect.x),
+      Math.round(rect.y),
+      Math.round(rect.width),
+      Math.round(rect.height)
+    );
+  };
+
+  // Initialize on mount
+  useLayoutEffect(() => {
+    if (!containerRef.current) return;
+    
+    if (!isInitializedRef.current) {
+      const rect = containerRef.current.getBoundingClientRect();
+      desktopAPI.initBrowserView(
+        Math.round(rect.x), Math.round(rect.y), 
+        active ? Math.round(rect.width) : 0, 
+        active ? Math.round(rect.height) : 0, 
+        url
+      ).then(() => { isInitializedRef.current = true; });
+    } else {
+      updateBounds();
+    }
+  }, [active]);
+
+  // Track window resizing and layout shifting
+  useEffect(() => {
+    if (!active) return;
+    const observer = new ResizeObserver(() => setTimeout(updateBounds, 10));
+    if (containerRef.current) observer.observe(containerRef.current);
+    
+    window.addEventListener('resize', updateBounds);
+    return () => {
+      observer.disconnect();
+      window.removeEventListener('resize', updateBounds);
+    };
+  }, [active]);
+
+  return (
+    // The native webview will "float" exactly over this transparent div
+    <div className="flex-1 w-full relative bg-transparent" ref={containerRef} />
+  );
+}
+```
+
+This pattern ensures the native `WebContentsView` stays perfectly synchronized with your React layout, mimicking the behaviour of a built-in browser component.
