Hacking Tauri for Designer

• goranmoomin 7mo ago
  tldr; they wanted to run a Tauri app in browser for dev purposes. To do so, they shimmed the Tauri’s rust communication bridge to use web-socket to communicate with the main app’s rust implementation. This is only used by dev, but if something like this is provided by Tauri/Electron it can probably enable a bunch of interesting use cases… (and probably a bunch of RCEs as well, though)

    Having built some stuff with Tauri, being able to debug using Chrome instead of a Safari/Webkit console would be _so nice_.

      Absolutely not the same thing, but I’m going to shamelessly plug my Tauri MCP in case you find it helpful: https://github.com/hypothesi/mcp-server-tauri https://github.com/hypothesi/mcp-server-tauri With the debugging capabilities it gives agents, I find I don’t miss Chrome DevTools so much.

      I have no idea about timeline, progress, or suitability, but IIUC the Tauri folks are exploring integration with Chromium Embedded Framework: https://github.com/tauri-apps/cef-rs https://github.com/tauri-apps/cef-rs https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues/14963#issuecomment-3915824782 https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues/14963#issuecommen... and following comments https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues?q=CEF https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues?q=CEF

    Do you know what is the purpose of the staging build? Not sure why the author requires that flag when building the binary.
