litehtml

brew install litehtml v0.10 BSD-3-Clause

C++ HTML/CSS rendering engine library for embedding lightweight web display in applications.

Why you might care

Litehtml is a minimal, self-contained renderer useful when you need to display HTML/CSS in native applications without pulling in a full browser engine like Chromium or WebKit. It's primarily a build dependency for tools that embed formatted document rendering. Fast startup and low memory overhead compared to alternatives, though with limited CSS/JavaScript support.
