hi,

qtwebkit is the old framework component from Qt to render web page
(geolocation, web service login). It's the official one for the next 6.1.0.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebKit

qtwebengine is the new one based on Blink engine (Chromium browser). This
one will replace qtwebkit in the future. AppImage is provided to compare
and test. It's not yet finalized.
