You webpage needs include:

```auto
<script src="https://thunkable.github.io/webviewer-extension/thunkableWebviewerExtension.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

```

```auto
ThunkableWebviewerExtension.postMessage('hello world');

```

You can find instructions and details here:

This is the wway to do all types of cool stuff that we dont yet have components for! The webview would benefit ffrom allowing for file transfers too (😉 @Steven) ! This would allow us to do client side photo transformations from native photo to base64 and all types of others stuff
