Should you bundle it with Deno, not Node, as Deno is also a rust project?
- nim2020 5y agoWe don't bundle with node. We bundle with rust.
- arodyginc 5y agoIs it a misleading title then? I thought you did an alternative to Electron
- ibraheemdev 5y agoBeing an Electron alternative and using Node.js as an optional bundler are not mutually exclusive.
- arodyginc 5y agoWell, I'm lost. You won
- quitethelogic 5y agoLike Electron, with Tauri you write your GUIs with HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Electron uses Node for the client-side non-GUI functionality, while Tauri instead uses Rust binaries to accomplish same. That's the alternative part. Node is not needed at all in the final build, although it may be used to create your app before bundling for release.
- nim2020 5y agoMaybe 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.
- ibraheemdev 5y agoDeno and pure Rust are on the roadmap. Node.js is only used as an alternative to the Cargo based CLI.
- parker-codes 5y agoDeno is on our roadmap, but the focus right now is performance, flushing out features, and performing a security audit. As was also said, Rust is used to bundle your app.
