AIUI, the major difference between the two is that Tauri uses the system’s WebView while Electron bundles a specific version of Chromium. That means Tauri will have a number of performance advantages at the cost of not being able to target a specific browser.
Still, the “why not use Electron?” answer is that Electron is much more hostile to the user…much larger download size, slower startup and increased memory usage. With Rust valuing zero-cost abstractions, Tauri comes a lot closer to that ethos than Electron.
