    <p>WebKitGTK+ is a full-featured port of the WebKit rendering engine,
      suitable for projects requiring any kind of web integration, from hybrid
      HTML/CSS applications to full-fledged web browsers. It offers WebKit’s
      full functionality and is useful in a wide range of systems from desktop
      computers to embedded systems like phones, tablets, and televisions.
      WebKitGTK+ is made by a lively community of developers and designers, who
      hope to bring the web platform to everyone. It’s the official web
      engine of the GNOME platform and is used in browsers such as Epiphany and
      Midori.
