Hi Schickling. Denjell here from the founding team of Tauri. Thanks for reaching out directly, and I just wanted to state for the HN record, that we are going to be having a board discussion surrounding the unpleasant…
We are going to put our demo app (that showcases the API) front and center on the landing page. Thanks for the input https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/tree/dev/examples/api
yeah, we just plain forgot to put that back on the landing page. mea culpa https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/tree/dev/examples/api
We actually had this at an earlier stage during the alpha, but got so caught up in the alpha that we just plain forgot to put the apps for mac, win and linux back up there. We'll try to get that done this weekend. We…
Like I wrote in another response, we are due for a landing page revamp, and we'll be sure to make a "nothing but the facts" hero for people like yourself who are concerned that their time is being wasted.
Maybe we need to be more clear about how nodejs CAN be used in the construction of a Tauri app, and that it is neither a requirement to make a Tauri app nor a component that is shipped with a Tauri app.
you can write your frontend in whatever you want, for example using yew...
That's a great idea! We do have a revamp of the landing page ahead of us, now that our roadmap is almost completed.
that's a great idea.
We don't bundle with node. We bundle with rust.
If you want to read more about what is new in the Beta release, we also published an article over at dev.to https://dev.to/tauri/announcing-tauri-beta-more-efficient-cr...
Tauri distributables are still 10 times smaller than Ultralight. Regarding performance will have to do some reviews.
we do not embed node in the final binary, although you can use either the nodejs based cli or the rust cargo one.
no, not directly. all primary code is written in rust
no, that is electron. not tauri
Hey - I am nothingismagick aka Denjell, one of the founders of Tauri, and will do my best to answer your questions about the project, rust, wasm, etc. https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri
Been really interesting to watch you grow. Can't wait to see what you innovate next!
I just filed one: https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues/814
I find it interesting that many people hold so tightly onto the "it is not native unless it is written entirely in %my_favorite_language%". I think a little controversy is good, but what the heck does native mean…
The big two that I see are: - neutralino uses cpp, so there are likely to be many more memory safety issues here than with tauri (because rust). - tauri does not force you to ship a localhost server
A local tauri binary that is optimally secured: - all assets are baked into the binary, not an ASAR or some kind of sidecar - uses minimal javascript obfuscation - disables console availability in the webview - detects…
Tauri builds the entire backend for you, all APIs are available out of the box without composing a single line of rust. If you do know rust, however, you can extend at your leisure. The team is currently working on a…
Hi - core dev from Tauri here. A new rendering engine is indeed one of the areas of the research at tauri. For now (and until 1.0 at least) we are sticking with the webview, because we want to have an alternative to…
