Crosswalk Project is an open-source web app runtime built with the latest releases of Chromium and Blink from Google. These are also used in Google Chrome. The project's focus is to provide the most up-to-date and innovative capabilities to web apps including experimental APIs and extensibility. A web app that bundles the Crosswalk Project runtime can install and run on different Android versions with consistent behavior and feature parity (Android 4.0 and newer).

The project was founded by Intel's Open Source Technology Center in September 2013. It is licensed under the BSD license. As of February 2017 Intel ceased to actively support the project, saying: {{Quote|text=Crosswalk 23 is our last stable release. After that we will no longer fix specific bugs but will leave the source code and binaries available for Crosswalk users to continue building applications. We welcome help from the Crosswalk community and would not discourage anybody willing to maintain the project. |source=https://crosswalk-project.org/blog/crosswalk-final-release.html}}

The primary features include:

• Support for: Android, iOS (limited), Linux (currently deb pkgs available), Windows 10 and Tizen.

Compare with other phone web-based frameworks.

Apache Cordova

Apache Cordova is a set of device APIs for accessing device capabilities and sensors. Crosswalk Project integrates well with Cordova to enable both the Cordova device APIs and the Crosswalk advanced Web runtime. Starting with Apache Cordova Android 4.0^[2] it is now possible to add a pluggable webview. This simplifies adding the Crosswalk Project webview into a Cordova project.
