Re:Tauri – Electron alternative written in Rust by usrusr on Wednesday January 05, 2022 @06:44AM (#29807837)
Yeah, and large fraction of the dev appeal of Electron is that a concern that has haunted web development for a quarter of a century is completely out of the picture when you do Electron. You're not even concerned with possible differences between past, present and future versions of the engine because your code runs with exactly the version you bundled.

Sure, if your app is just a faux-native variant of something that is developed for the browser anyways nothing is lost, but if it's an offline first application that just happens to use web tech for UI the difference is huge.
