Note that **litehtml** itself does not draw any text, pictures or other graphics and that **litehtml** does not depend on any image/draw/font library. You are free to use any library to draw images, fonts and any other graphics. **litehtml** just parses HTML/CSS and places the HTML elements into the correct positions (renders HTML). To draw the HTML elements you have to implement the simple callback interface [document_container](https://github.com/litehtml/litehtml/wiki/document_container). This interface is really simple, check it out! The [document_container](https://github.com/litehtml/litehtml/wiki/document_container) implementation is required to render HTML correctly. +**litehtml** is the lightweight HTML rendering engine with CSS2/CSS3 support. +Note that **litehtml** itself does not draw any text, pictures or other graphics and that **litehtml** does not depend on any image/draw/font library. +You are free to use any library to draw images, fonts and any other graphics. +**litehtml** just parses HTML/CSS and places the HTML elements into the correct positions (renders HTML). +To draw the HTML elements you have to implement the simple callback interface [document_container](https://github.com/litehtml/litehtml/wiki/document_container). +This interface is really simple, check it out!

Usually you don't need something like WebKit to show simple HTML tooltips or HTML-formatted text, **litehtml** is much better for these as it's more lightweight and easier to integrate into your application. +The **litehtml** can be used when you need to show HTML formatted text or even to create a mini-browser, +but using it as a full-featured HTML engine is not recommended. +Usually you don't need something like WebKit to show simple HTML tooltips or HTML-formatted text, +**litehtml** is much better for these as it's more lightweight and easier to integrate into your application. ## HTML Parser -**litehtml** uses the [gumbo-parser](https://github.com/google/gumbo-parser) to parse HTML. Gumbo is an implementation of the HTML5 parsing algorithm implemented as a pure C99 library with no outside dependencies. It's designed to serve as a building block for other tools and libraries such as linters, validators, templating languages, and refactoring and analysis tools. +The **litehtml** uses the [gumbo-parser](https://github.com/google/gumbo-parser) to parse HTML. +Gumbo is an implementation of the HTML5 parsing algorithm +implemented as a pure C99 library with no outside dependencies. +It's designed to serve as a building block for other tools and libraries such as linters, +validators, templating languages, and refactoring and analysis tools. ## Compatibility -**litehtml** is compatible with any platform supported by C++ and STL. For Windows MS Visual Studio 2013 is recommended. **litehtml** supports only UTF-8 strings. +The **litehtml** is compatible with any platform supported by C++ and STL. +For Windows MS Visual Studio 2013 is recommended. +The **litehtml** supports only UTF-8 strings. ## Support for HTML and CSS standards -Unfortunately **litehtml** is not fully compatible with HTML/CSS standards. There is lots of work to do to make **litehtml** work as well as modern browsers. But **litehtml** supports most HTML tags and CSS properties. You can find the list of supported CSS properties in [this table](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AvHXl5n24PuhdHdELUdhaUl4OGlncXhDcDJuM1JpMnc&usp=sharing). For most simple usecases the HTML/CSS features supported by **litehtml** are enough. Right now **litehtml** supports even some pages with very complex HTML/CSS designs. As an example the pages created with [bootstrap framework](http://getbootstrap.com/) are usually well formatted by **litehtml**. +Unfortunately, the **litehtml** is not fully compatible with HTML/CSS standards. +There is lots of work to do to make **litehtml** work as well as modern browsers. +But **litehtml** supports most HTML tags and CSS properties. +You can find the list of supported CSS properties in [this table](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AvHXl5n24PuhdHdELUdhaUl4OGlncXhDcDJuM1JpMnc&usp=sharing). +For most simple use cases the HTML/CSS features supported by **litehtml** are enough. +Right now **litehtml** supports even some pages with very complex HTML/CSS designs. +As an example, the pages created with [bootstrap framework](http://getbootstrap.com/) are usually well formatted by **litehtml**. ## Testing litehtml |
