Do not show window #22

On my Arch Linux with Xfce4 the example code do not show the window, and do not show any errors. Runtime Dependencies (GTK3, WebKitGTK and QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets) present both. Web bowser is Firefox.

This wrapper is old and not updated yet. You can try manually replace the dynamic library from the latest one: https://github.com/webui-dev/webui/releases/tag/nightly

Webui needs only a web browser, does not depend on anything.

have the same issue Firefox does not seem to work with 2.4.5, same goes for safari.

weirdly, the default browser isn't even "any" as suggested in the browser class of webui, but if not specified differently in the window.show() call, a Chromium Based is the only browser option tried:

my suggestion: download chromium. only way i got it to work as of 2.4.5

(other options fail silently)

Basically the wrapper needs to be updated to 2.5.0. Hopefully someone may have time and push a PR soon.
