The release of Tauri 1.0 has been published, which develops a framework for creating cross-platform user applications with graphical interfaces built using web technologies. Essentially, Tauri resembles the Electron platform, but features a different architecture and lower resource consumption. The project's code is written in Rust and is licensed under Apache 2.0. <\/p>\n
The app's logic is defined in JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, but unlike web applications, programs based on Tauri are delivered as standalone executable files that are not tied to a browser and can be compiled for various operating systems. The platform also provides tools for organizing automatic delivery and installation of updates. This approach allows developers to not worry about porting the application to different platforms and simplifies keeping the application up to date. <\/p>\n
Any web frameworks that output HTML, JavaScript, and CSS can be used in the application to build the interface. The web technology-based frontend is linked to the backend, performing functions such as user interaction and executing the web application. For window handling on the Linux platform, the GTK library (GTK 3 Rust binding) is used, while the developing Tao library, written in Rust, is used in macOS and Windows. <\/p>\n
The WRY library is used to create the interface, which is a wrapper over the browser engine WebKit for macOS, WebView2 for Windows, and WebKitGTK for Linux. The library also offers a set of ready-made components for implementing interface elements such as menus and taskbars. The application being created can support a multi-window interface, minimize to the system tray, and display notifications via standard system interfaces. <\/p>\n
The first release of the platform allows for building applications for Windows 7\/8\/10 (.exe, .msi), Linux (.deb, AppImage), and macOS (.app, .dmg). Support for iOS and Android is in development. The executable file can be signed with a digital signature. A CLI interface, an extension for the VS Code editor, and a set of build scripts for GitHub (tauri-action) are offered for building and developing. Plugins can be used to extend the basic components of the Tauri platform. <\/p>\n
Notable differences from the Electron platform include a significantly smaller installer (3.1 MB in Tauri compared to 52.1 MB in Electron), lower memory consumption (180 MB versus 462 MB), faster launch speed (0.39 seconds compared to 0.80 seconds), backend usage on Rust instead of Node.js, and additional security and isolation measures (for example, Scoped Filesystem to restrict access to the filesystem). \n Source: opennet.ru<\/a> <\/p>","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
