"Tauri is a toolkit that helps developers make applications for the major desktop platforms - using virtually any frontend framework in existence. The core is built with Rust and the CLI leverages Node.js making Tauri a genuinely polyglot approach to creating and maintaining great apps."

That's the first paragraph on the About page. Landing pages have multiple purposes and need to address different types of viewers, not just the neckbeards. The marketing speak is likely more for convincing IT manages this is a legit project and does not have common "deal breakers".

If this is the case, it's an excellent reason to not use Tauri. Making their decisions based on what IT managers want to read rather than what developers need to do their job? Good luck with that, might work in some bubbles but the rest of the world is trying to be productive.

They are nowhere near ready for pitching IT managers. The only thing that matters right now is winning developer interest.

Nope. Landing pages have one purpose, to funnel you further down into adoption or allow you a place to access things you've already adopted. That's it. Everything else is noise.

You just listed two purposes.
