as far as I see freetube is just written in html, css and Javascript, then all of that thrown into an Electron app. you can run these elements without Electron in any browser, it just won’t have access to as many device features as the app does.
I’ve built a web version here from the source just to try it out. it’s somewhat buggy but it does work
If you want a good front end alternative to youtube, try freetube on pcs and newpipe on android
Also there is https://piped.video/trending for watching in browser and Revanced on Android

What do you mean by “just a webview”? As far as I know, FreeTube does not exist as a web client that can then just be displayed in an in-app browser.
