Not familiar with Tauri. Guess I’ll go google that, but what’s your reason for suggesting it as a preferable alternative?
Tauri uses the system’s native web rendering engine instead of shipping Chromium with the whole app. As a result you get much smaller app bundles (like 10 MB for a complex app), better startup times and less RAM usage. The downside is that you need to do slightly more testing but the end result is worth it.
