One big difference between tauri and electron is that tauri can deliver to mobile, from my understanding.
Is there an hybrid way to deliver with tauri on macos and windows, but electron in linux?
- jszymborski 2y agoAny reason why? Tauri works fine on Linux as I understand.
- jitl 2y agoMultiple posts about WebKitGTK webview used on Linux being a source of problems.
- taosx 2y agoBuilt a video player using Tauri and the performance was terrible/unusable in linux under webkitgtk. Every release I'm hoping to see any solution, every release I'm dissapointed.
- Fire-Dragon-DoL 2y agoWebkitgtk is a source of problems. If tauri could address that, it would become my go-to for app building.
- fastball 2y agoIt would be cool if there was a system where linux users could install one version of Chromium that is kept up to date on their distro, and Tauri would check if that is available first and somehow use that as the webview, otherwise falling back to whatever the system ships. So you could have multiple Tauri apps that all use the same Chromium under-the-hood (this also has benefits that security is maintained better, as it is no longer the responsibility of individual app developers to keep a bundled Chromium up-to-date). And then if they wanted to, app developers could disable the fallback entirely, so if you don't have that Chromium package installed you just get an error message saying "please install this package". As this is linux we're talking about, I doubt that would be a very onerous demand for these users.
- Fire-Dragon-DoL 2y agoI wonder if electron could be used for that purpose. It's effectively chromium in a digestible webview format. Having an always up to date electron would be useful for various reasons
