Today I Learned about Tauri [1], a framework similar to Electron but instead of spinning up its own Chromium-based browser instance, it uses the system’s available web renderer through the WRY library [2].
Hat tip to @jbz for linking to this comparison between Electron and Tauri [3] from someone trying to migrate an existing app (Dolt Workbench) [4] to Tauri.
