What's the difference and respective use for GenericRenderWindow vs RenderWindow vs WebGLRenderWindow?

The vtk.js API docs for GenericRenderWindow only show the code implementation, and the WebGL one says it is “designed to view/render a vkRenderWindow”, (also probably typo here? vtk?) but isn’t that what the regular RenderWindow does? Render a window?

How do I choose which one to use?

The example I’m trying to recreate/expand on uses both a RenderWindow and a WebGLRenderWindow (https://kitware.github.io/vtk-js/examples/ResliceCursor.html), but all my other uses so far were with the GenericRenderWindow, so now I’m confused.

Thanks!
