To log into WhatsApp Web without the app, you actually need to first scan a QR code using the WhatsApp app on your phone. Navigate to WhatsApp on your phone, then select Settings > WhatsApp Web/Desktop. This reveals a QR scanner, which you'll use to scan the QR code displayed on the WhatsApp Web site on your computer. Strictly speaking, there's no way to use WhatsApp Web entirely without the app, as the phone app is required for the initial authentication process.
