No need to setup binary compilation, webpack, vite, hot-reload, TS compilation for back-end, etc yourself. You can pick your favorite JS framework with Vite, during setup, or use a Rust frontend (kind of what electron-forge is doing, but it is buggy, and landed yeaaaars after Electron was released).&lt;p&gt;- the architecture makes sense (commands, security, plugins, all very well-designed)&lt;p&gt;- they provide official plugins for common-usecases (SQL, config, etc)&lt;p&gt;- Rust is fun and interesting to learn for folks like me used to high-level languages like JS or Python&lt;p&gt;What I don&amp;#x27;t like as much:&lt;p&gt;- facing webview-specific UI issues (feature X does not work on Safari, Y not on gtk-webview etc), with Electron, you know if X works on Windows, it will work on Linux or MacOS&lt;p&gt;- some rough edges with the framework or the ecosystem (not as mature or dev-friendly as npm&amp;#x27;s or Electron), but the crates (and Tauri&amp;#x27;s) maintainers are very friendly and reactive.&lt;p&gt;- the focus on mobile apps, It seems like a very different space, and it feels weird to try to build with big mashup framework. I would rather have them work on more integrations, but whatever.&lt;p&gt;- changes in the Rust backend can take minutes to compile, and rust-analyzer is damn slow.&lt;p&gt;Overall I&amp;#x27;m really happy and having a lot of fun. I will keep working on this port and release it when I can. Kudos to the Tauri team, what you are building is awesome :)&lt;p&gt;[0] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;museeks.io&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;museeks.io&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>

What I initially found attractive was the smaller binary sizes. Over time I have come to really appreciate their stance on security and implementation of the Isolation pattern[0].&lt;p&gt;When we were deciding whether we want to build our business[1] around Tauri, the final argument that helped me decide was the video manifesto[2] on their site as I felt that we were aligned on values. Having interacted with the community over this one year I have had a very positive experience, therefore Tauri definitely gets my recommendation.&lt;p&gt;[0] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;tauri.app&amp;#x2F;v1&amp;#x2F;references&amp;#x2F;architecture&amp;#x2F;inter-process-communication&amp;#x2F;isolation&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;tauri.app&amp;#x2F;v1&amp;#x2F;references&amp;#x2F;architecture&amp;#x2F;inter-process-c...&lt;/a&gt;
