## What it is
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
