For those who are wondering, Ultralight (the browser engine backend here) is a fork of WPE - https://webkit.org/wpe/ - a webkit port for embedded, low powered devices. More details here - https://wpewebkit.org/ ...

Definitely not a fork of WPE (which is primarily tied to *nix), Ultralight is built on a platform-agnostic fork of WebCore/JavaScriptCore I started back in 2015.

The goal is actually more ambitious than WPE since we run on every platform and in environments where embedders may provide custom platform functionality (such as games).
