hi guys, there is an app called wechat, almost every chinese use it everyday.

the x5 engine is a webview engine made by wechat team and embedded for upgrade webview performance like crosswalk but the size is only around 250k,

and the most amazing feature is base on blink

so could you please support it like crosswalk or add it to ionic-native?

there is the sdk http://x5.tencent.com/doc?id=1004

You can deploy web apps on WeChat as a service account.

@yozman I don't think Ionic will be supporting x5 since it is a special use case. They recommend WKWebView for iOS because it is made by Apple, and is tried and true, and above all not third party. I don't work for Ionic, but they traditionally want to keep things as light as possible and keep dependency low. However, if you made an x5 plugin, I am sure the community of Ionic devs in China would love you forever 👍

Hello @yozman ! Thanks for the idea (: So this is not something we would really want to incorporate into Ionic as it is a specialized use case, but this seems like it would be perfect for a third party cordova plugin!
