WPE - WebPlatform For Embedded built directly on Raspbian Stretch (HW Support)

I'm trying to build WebKitForEmbedded https://wpewebkit.org/ but this is disaster. I've created another post about this issue (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51578580/wpe-build-installed-directly-on-raspbian-image) but there are a lot of missing dependencies and problems with compiling this project directly on Stretch. According to articles WPE has HW support and works quite smoothly. I am still NOT able to run this application on my RPi (I've resolved about 8 config/compilation problems and I got stuck at ninth).

I've tried:

  • Chromium
  • Epiphany
  • Kweb

Animation in HTML5 canvas element works extremely slowly. I need to run application to display some animation/info and video. My question is:

  • Is WPE intended to be built directly on Raspbian? I came across on examples mostly with Buildroot or Yocto. The only native example (which fails) is here. Has anyone made it?
  • Is there any other browser with HW support/HTML5 (canvas) element?
