  override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    let url = URL(string: "http://132.148.136.31:8082")
    let urlRequest = URLRequest(url: url!)

    webView.load(urlRequest)
  }
}

Answer 1

Working with WKWebView is better to create it from code. And you can set javaScriptEnabled to configuration:

let preferences = WKPreferences()
preferences.javaScriptEnabled = true
let configuration = WKWebViewConfiguration()
configuration.preferences = preferences
let webview = WKWebView(frame: .zero, configuration: configuration)

Update. This is WKWebView in view controller class:

import UIKit
import WebKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    private var webView: WKWebView!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        let preferences = WKPreferences()
        preferences.javaScriptEnabled = true
        let configuration = WKWebViewConfiguration()
        configuration.preferences = preferences
        webView = WKWebView(frame: view.bounds, configuration: configuration)
        view.addSubview(webView)
    }
}

For those who are building for iOS 14 with Swift 5 and Xcode 12, it has changed to the following ...

webView.configuration.defaultWebpagePreferences.allowsContentJavaScript = true
