First, I don't like Chrome nor Chromium at all and I'd like to use Edge but latest Windows 10 Mobile build is already two major versions behind the main branch and there are web sites that no longer works in Edge Mobile, probably due to a HTML/JavaScript compatibility issues.

Two weeks ago Facebook (touch) web site stopped to work at all, then the Slimsocial for Facebook app as well (uses WebView UWP control = Edge core). Both just get stuck loading the page on a JavaScript code. I suppose it'll become worse and worse in time since the Edge Mobile is no longer feature-updated :( Microsoft is aware of the issue but I doubt they actually care :mad:

A Chromium based web broswer app could be a more uptodate to latest HTML/JS standards, that's why I am asking for it.

I've searched the internet. Nope, it's not available.

However, there are a few ways:

1) The community ports this to UWP: https://github.com/cefsharp/CefSharp
2) The community implements this from scratch: https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/cef/overview
3) Make it work from the source: https://www.chromium.org/Home
