What is the advantage of Bubblewrap VS Android native webview

Issue

What would be a practical advantage of using bubblewrap vs Android webview. What is the major difference between both.

Solution

Bubblewrap is a tool that turns your PWA into an Android app package (apk+aab) just by reading its manifest.json. No Android Studio, no Java/Kotlin skills are required. The resultant package is quite small, typically less than 1 MB, and depends on Android Browser Helper which uses Trusted Web Activity (TWA) that invokes installed system browser if it supports Custom Tabs protocol, or falls back to WebView otherwise.

WebView is a browser component which is part of the Android platform and is typically used from Java/Kotlin porgrams.
