Muon: GPU Based Electron on a Diet

These days I’ve been absolutely impressed with Tauri:

The documentation needed a little bit of work last time I looked but they’ve made so much progress in such a small amount of time.

Also having Rust underneath it all is a huge plus

I am very confused as to why you are discussing a completely unrelated piece of software without even mentioning the software this post is about?

I wasn't confused: both softwares let you create a cross-platform desktop app using html, css and js.

As others have said, Tauri is exactly the same sort of tool, sorry if the mention of Rust threw you off!

I don't think it's the mention of rust so much as not providing context on what tauri is. Mentioning that it's an electron alternative would have cleared that up.

I would have assumed it was an Electron alternative or tooling for Electron. Either way, those kind of comments are quite annoying. Commenter didn't even click the link before replying with hostility.

> not providing context on what tauri is.

Their comment has a link to the Tauri GitHub repo.

Both are lightweight Electron alternatives, so it seems relevant.
