This is really exciting! Hopefully can lead to tiny packages (compared to Electron) but still a consistent rendering story across platforms.
- ReactiveJelly 3y agoIf it has enough features to match Electron, I think it's likely to end up the same size (100 MB on disk)
- capableweb 3y agoNo, because Electron embeds Chromium/Chrome, Tauri uses whatever the platform already has.
- fabrice_d 3y agoCorrect, but for the Tauri/Servo combination, you need Servo which is unlikely to be already available. Stripped release builds of servo are currently 106M which is quite large. Hopefully some size reduction will be achieved.
- postalrat 3y agoWhy not a PWA? Does your app need more permissions to mess with people's system that a PWA would allow?
- niutech 3y agoFor lightweight alternatives to Electron.js (apart from Tauri), have a look at: - Sciter (https://sciter.com https://sciter.com) - Yue (https://libyue.com https://libyue.com) - Wails (https://wails.io https://wails.io) - Muon (https://github.com/ImVexed/muon https://github.com/ImVexed/muon) and Ultralight (https://ultralig.ht https://ultralig.ht) - Gluon (https://gluonjs.org https://gluonjs.org) - NeutralinoJS (https://neutralino.js.org https://neutralino.js.org) - Proton Native (https://proton-native.js.org https://proton-native.js.org) - NodeGUI (https://nodegui.org https://nodegui.org) - DeskGap (https://deskgap.com https://deskgap.com) - Graffiti (http://tomsik.cz/graffiti/ http://tomsik.cz/graffiti/)
