Seriously though, web apps are usually just optimized like shit in addition to using chrome. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Andrew15_5@mander.xyz 1 point 2 years ago (2 children) Do you know what this even is? It's not marginal at all. Check the comparisons of Tauri and Electron. And it does not use Chrome. Electron also doesn't use Chrome. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Carighan@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (1 child) Tauri is the exact same problem, just done a bit more cleanly. The problem is the evolutionary dead end that - hopefully - is web framework based "desktop" apps. There is already a framework for desktop apps, and unless you're still used to those, you wouldn't notice just how slow any web framework is by comparison. It's mostly the user interactions, that small but noticably delay on every interaction, every click, every type, everything. Funnily enough, my actual web browser (Firefox) shows one of the shortest delays when typing into web pages like this compared to all the "native apps" I got installed that are just web pages, too. Tauri is an improvement. To the problem. It's not a solution. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Andrew15_5@mander.xyz -1 points 2 years ago We just not there yet. Tauri tries to be Electron or React, where you write only once and use everywhere. This is very cost efficient. So even though it's of course not perfect overall, but it is the perfect alternative, that brings web apps closer to native-like experience. Small but important step to greatness. In the end the question is: Election or Tauri? And not a debate on whether web frameworks are bad etc. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 years ago (1 child) It's chromium, which is basically chrome lol permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Andrew15_5@mander.xyz 0 points 2 years ago (1 child) Basically, but not basically.
