That's interesting, I didn't know MS published any of their Chromium source. It looks like all the WebView2 source files are not included (they would be under the `edge_embedded_browser` directory), but all the object files are there (in `src/out/Release/obj/edge_embedded_browser`). There are also generated files, particularly MIDL-generated header/source files for the many COM interfaces (i.e. `out/Release/gen/edge_embedded_browser/client/win/current/WebView2Private.h`). These could be helpful but it's not clear what license they're under, there's no license file for the overall archive (just individual headers on all the Chromium-originating files).
strange... normally there's a LICENSE file at the top of the chromium source tree https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:LICENSE
don't know why it's not part of MS bundle
other than that, in chromium, you can have different license (on a per directory basis), and in that case there's another LICENSE file in said directory (eg. https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:third_party/gvdb/LI... for LGPL2)
