I’ve always liked GUI, both desktop-based and browser-based before you needed five years of training on the latter. That’s the reason I loved, and still love Vaadin: you can develop web UIs without writing a single line of HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. I’m still interested in the subject; a couple of years ago, I analyzed the state of JVM desktop frameworks.   I also like the Rust programming language a lot.

A Java geek

Tauri is a Rust-based framework for building desktop applications. It allows developers to build optimized, secure, and frontend-independent apps for multi-platform deployment. The framework offers easy getting started, comprehensive documentation, a great feedback loop, and complete lifecycle management. However, it has limitations in using regular JavaScript file-related APIs and requires knowledge of frontend technologies. Tauri is recommended for those who already use and like web technologies.

My opinion on the Tauri framework

Tauri : “Tauri is an app construction toolkit that lets you build software for all major desktop operating systems using web technologies.”
the author : “However, it’s a no-go for me: to create a simple desktop app, I don’t want to learn how to center a div”
Maybe, just maybe you’re not the target

Tauri runs the UI in a dedicated Chrome browser instance.

False. It uses a WebView which uses the browser engine that comes with your OS. That’s usually WebKit iirc

tldr: “Can’t and won’t centre a div. Tauri not for me”.

I don’t think it uses Chrome for UI

Tell me you don’t know what you’re talking about without telling me you don’t know what you’re talking about.
