More information

With wxPython from PyPi, it is possible to create web views inside of wx applications via wx.WebView. However, with the Piwheels package, the constructor fails with NotImplementedError. I was able to build a wheel myself with wx.WebView support by just having the WebView2GTK-4.1 development files installed, so I don't think it should be too complicated to fix. For Bullseye I guess the relevant package would be libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37.
