Tauri Docs

Electron apps often ship at 100 MB or more because each one bundles its own browser. Tauri uses the webview the OS already has and puts your backend logic in Rust, so a basic app can be a few MB and use far less memory. You still write the UI with React, Vue, Svelte or plain HTML.

Here's the path through the docs:

1. Introduction to Tauri: what it is, and how it compares to Electron.
2. Environment setup: system dependencies, Rust and Node.js.
3. Creating a project: create-tauri-app or a manual setup.
4. Project structure: the key files, and how React talks to Rust.
5. Native APIs: files, dialogs, clipboard, notifications and permissions.
6. Plugins: the official plugins, and how to write your own.
7. Configuration: tauri.conf.json, windows, bundles and security.
8. Building and distribution: packaging, code signing and updates.
