It's been weeks trying to balance my full-time job and caring for my 6-week-old son, but here is the current Coun. There's still a long way to go, but I'm glad it's starting to appear.

That’s awesome! SwiftUI?

It’s a Tauri

Ooohhh! Looks slick! How would you rate dev experience? I don’t want to go back using Electron. While figuring out SwiftUI, thought I’d ship some stuff on Tauri for macOS. Just being wary of working with system API though… it’s always cumbersome with wrappers.

Compared to electron, personally it is easier with Tauri. I initialized the project, set up the fe and put "hello world", changed some Tauri settings and install couple deps in cargo, built and test the .app file in macos. Everything worked just in one day.

And considered Tauri for much smaller bundle size as it uses webkit for web engine, compared to chromium in electron. Current Coun, with all components as posted, it's 5mb.

Oh yes, dramatically smaller bundle is what sparkled my interest. Thanks for such a detailed response! Are you using v1 or v2, btw? Judging from the docs it looks like v2 introduces some major alluring changes, but its early alpha looks like.

Yeah v2 is exciting, seems they offer to bundle it in Android/iOS as well. I'm sticking to v1 for now, so then I can focus on the product itself rather than handling the possible compatibility. How was your experience with Electron?
