ChatGPT Desktop Application (Mac, Windows and Linux)
Tauri not only makes native applications with web technologies (html, js, css), but also packages the url into a desktop application that interacts well with the operating system (e.g. file reading and writing, system menus, shortcuts, script injection, etc.). It is easy to extend the limitations of web pages in the operating system.
- decremental 4y agoI was just looking at Tauri yesterday. How do you feel about using native web views? Made me worry about having to deal with subtle incompatibilities ala web design.
- lencx 4y agoRegarding web compatibility, it's actually ok, you can use front-end packaging tools to output the minimum browser version required. But tauri itself is more demanding on the system, for example in higher versions windows will use edge by default, lower versions need to bootstrap, or package specific browser versions into the application (but it will increase the size of the application significantly).
