No, this is independent of JHS.

Qt WebEngine is a control that runs a copy of the Chromium browser.

>With J807 and the full Qt IDE on Windows and Mac, and Linux if you
compile the Qt IDE with Qt 5.6 or later, then run
Help|Studio|Showcase|webview for a demo that has both standard Qt
desktop controls and a web browser control.

>For example, you can build a desktop app which uses javascript grids
and graphics for reporting. Events in the browser can trigger calls to
javascript or J.

>Warning: this j807 beta will replace the previous jandroid on the

uninstall the previous jandroid before this beta can be installed.

version first for the same reason.
