I agree with this. We are shipping our app Caido with Tauri and it is missing quite a lot in feature parity with electron. We always lose time to try to bypass limitations or work around bugs. I honestly can't recommend it for production at this moment, even if it is getting better.
Some of the challenges we faced in the last week: no built-in api for single instances (so basically making sure the app is only run once), no support for the task bar menu (right click on the app icon), a fair amount of APIs are platform specific so you need a lot of conditional compilation trickery to make it work, etc.
On top of that you have platform webview issues that are hard to reproduce sometimes since you need the user specific OS version and packages. If you care about uniformity of your UX and speed of development stick with electron.
- andrew_ 4y ago> uniformity of your UX and speed of development stick with electron This is what keeps me from adopting Tauri. I'm following the project with great interest, but I have zero desire to step back in time to wrestle per-platform rendering issues. Big fan of the progression, but it's not quite there yet.
