    I am wondering if I can update the QtWebEngine feature of my Qt 5.15.2 build from source. I believe the QtWebEngine in later versions of Qt work better for my application.

    Must I rebuild Qt 5.15.2 with an newer QtWebEngine, or can I individually build QtWebEngine from a later Qt version?

    Or is this not possible? If not, can I update chromium?

    Thanks!

      @desun_evan I think I found some information about this. at https://www.qt.io/blog/putting-updates-of-chromium-in-qtwebengine-on-a-timeline

      I will try building a Qt 6 WebEngine for 5.15 LTS.

        Hello, did you manage to do it, to use a Qt6 Webengine with 5.15 LTS?

          You can not mix Qt5 and Qt6.
