A curated collection of tips, gotchas, and code workarounds for Apple's WKWebView API introduced in iOS 8. It documents common pitfalls like file:// access restrictions, target=_blank links, URL scheme handling, and JavaScript dialog delegate methods with Objective-C examples.

Use cases

• handle target=_blank links in WKWebView
• load local files with file:// scheme in WKWebView
• show JavaScript alert confirm prompt in WKWebView
• handle basic digest authentication challenge in WKWebView
• open App Store links from WKWebView
• set up WKWebView programmatically without storyboard

When to choose

• you are working with WKWebView on older iOS versions and hitting its known quirks
• you need quick Objective-C snippets for WKWebView delegate workarounds

When to avoid

• you target modern iOS where most of these issues are fixed
• you need a maintained library rather than a static reference
• you work primarily in Swift rather than Objective-C
