SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Building desktop and mobile apps with Rust/WASM frontends can be complex due to tooling gaps between frameworks (Leptos, Yew, Dioxus, Sycamore) and Tauri. This skill guides integrating frontend WASM frameworks with Tauri v2, including static site generation considerations, Cargo.toml dependencies, and Trunk-based bundling to expose a clean API surface via withGlobalTauri.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Provides a practical blueprint for wiring Leptos, Yew, Dioxus, or Sycamore frontends to a Tauri backend, enabling desktop-like experiences with web UI toolchains.
  • Demonstrates how to configure Trunk, Trunk.toml, and Tauri configuration to support WASM in a secure, production-like workflow.
  • Use Case: You want a fast dev loop for building a cross-platform UI with Rust/WASM that communicates with the Tauri backend and exposes native capabilities.

Quick Start

Install Trunk, add wasm32 target, scaffold a Leptos/Yew/Dioxus project, and configure withGlobalTauri in tauri.conf.json and trunk.toml for mobile/hot-reload.

FAQPage Schema
How do I integrate a Rust WASM frontend with Tauri v2?

To integrate a Rust WASM frontend with Tauri v2, use Trunk bundling and configure withGlobalTauri in tauri.conf.json to expose native APIs to frameworks like Leptos, Yew, Dioxus, or Sycamore.

Does Tauri v2 support Yew and Leptos frontend frameworks?

Yes, Tauri v2 supports Yew and Leptos frontend frameworks by using Trunk for WASM bundling and configuring the wasm32-unknown-unknown target along with static site generation.

What is the best way to configure Trunk for a Tauri desktop application?

Configuring Trunk for a Tauri desktop application involves setting up Trunk.toml for WASM bundling and enabling withGlobalTauri in tauri.conf.json to ensure frontend frameworks access native capabilities.

How do I enable hot-reload for Rust WASM frontends in Tauri?

You can enable hot-reload for Rust WASM frontends in Tauri by properly configuring Trunk.toml and tauri.conf.json to support a fast development loop across desktop and mobile targets.

Do I need the wasm32-unknown-unknown target for Tauri WASM development?

Yes, compiling Rust WASM frontends for Tauri requires the wasm32-unknown-unknown target to successfully build frameworks like Dioxus or Sycamore into WebAssembly.

Why does my Trunk configuration fail with static site generation in Tauri?

Trunk configuration may fail with static site generation in Tauri if tauri.conf.json lacks proper withGlobalTauri API access or if the WASM target setup is incomplete.
