Is WebF a full browser engine?

No, WebF is a high-performance W3C-compliant runtime built on top of Flutter. It implements core web standards for building apps rather than general-purpose web browsing.

Does this skill support Tailwind CSS?

Yes, it provides compatibility guidance for Tailwind CSS v3. Note that v4 support is currently planned for a future release in 2026.

Why aren't Web Workers supported in WebF?

In WebF, JavaScript already runs on a dedicated background thread separate from the UI thread, providing the performance benefits of workers without the added complexity.

What should I use instead of IndexedDB?

For simple key-value storage, use localStorage. For complex database needs, WebF recommends using native Flutter plugins like sqflite or Hive.
