Description
Windows has MSHTML, EdgeHTML and new addition WebView2 (Chromium based Edge):
- https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/WebView2Samples/tree/master/WebView2APISample
- https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/hosting/webview2/gettingstarted
I think MSHTML and EdgeHTML are both not sufficient these days, but WebView2 could make this kind of apps feasible.

Research direction
The issue names the WebView2Samples repository and Microsoft’s WebView2 getting-started documentation; read those first to understand the proposed Windows integration. No project files, tests, entry point, or bounded completion criterion is identified, so the implementation scope and definition of done remain unresolved.
