You are right, sorry, I haven't looked into the pluggable webviews yet. After looking into the WKWebView engine plugin I've seen that the local webserver is a dependency, I thought it was included inside the plugin (as the one from Eddy).
So, the way to go is remove the dependency and make it only available for iOS 9? and if the user want to use it on iOS 8 then he install the webserver plugin manually and maybe add a preference on the WKWebView engine plugin? or is there a way that the preference (or an install param) can install the webserver plugin with a hook or something? 2015-08-05 8:30 GMT+02:00 Shazron <shaz...@gmail.com>: > I don't think that is a good idea.
