Qt-wpe is no more supported.

You can try a PyQt5 based browser.

If you plan to browse only in a kiosk mode, you can try the Qt official example:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwebengine-webengine-quicknanobrowser-example.html

Hi @PPAGE.13 
Thanks for your respone,

Actually i can not use the https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwebengine-webengine-quicknanobrowser-example.html

this one , because of the Qtwebengine , in yocto layers , meta- python2 , no more support or branch in mickledore,

So i moved on yocto 23.06.21(v5.0.1) , where i download the starter package and i installed the python3-pyqt5, 
where i successfully displayed the web-browser , but it issueing with the browser playing video , also i try to play the video using the GST play , but fails,

so as of now i am using the yocto 23.06.21 version , and debugging the GStreamer1.0, i am using the distribution package.

No more support on latest version , there is many error and bugs, with wpewebkit , qtwebengine,qt-wpe, and many more ,
