The WebFrontend is a browser based frontend for MythTV. It will replace MythWeb but is not a full replacement for MythWeb in MythTV 0.28. Therefore MythWeb will still be available.
WebFrontend is served by an internal HTTP server in the mythbackend application and requires no additional dependencies or configuration, working out of the box.
