How to embed resources other than HTML/CSS/JS? about webview

Embedding itself is possible with go-bindata, xxd -i (for C/C++) etc. It's not a big problem.
How to use embedded resources?

1. Use blank URL when creating your webview. It will make bare minimal HTML ready for script injection.
2. Use w.Eval(js) (Go) or webview_eval(w, js) (C/C++) to inject JS libraries - BabelJS, frameworks, your app code.
3. Use w.InjectCSS(css) (Go) or webview_inject_css(w, css) (C/C++) to inject CSS stylesheets.

For images and webfonts you have to embed them into JS first (base64-encoded). Webpack can do that.

And I think that's it.

file:// is an option, but last time I tried it - it worked really strange on Windows.

An example here.

See an example that uses go-bindata as a tool for embedding binary data into a code.

@1l0 That's good, but does it work for images for example and specifically in a context of this library?

Afaik, if you don't want to serve the images through a file:// url or from a local web server, the only way is to base64 encode them as data urls.

@zserge webview_inject_css does not seem to exist in webview.h file. Was it deprecated?
