Description

At the moment I have a tab control bar and one browser control independent of the tab control.

Based on selected tab I render different data in the browser control.

I would like to know if it is a bad idea to have one webview2 per tab page as a child. I have at most 5 tabs.

I would like advice please, because until now I only have one instance.
