FAQPage Schema
How do I build a cross-platform desktop app with a Rust backend and web frontend?▼

To build a cross-platform desktop app with a Rust backend and web frontend, you use the Tauri framework to integrate web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with a performant Rust core, enabling compilation for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

Can I use Tauri to deploy a single codebase to both desktop and mobile platforms?▼

Yes, Tauri supports mobile app deployment alongside desktop applications, allowing you to compile a single codebase into native iOS and Android apps using the same Rust backend and web frontend architecture.

What is the best way to implement Inter-Process Communication between Rust and a web frontend in Tauri?▼

The best way to implement IPC in Tauri is by defining custom IPC commands within your Rust backend, which your web frontend can invoke directly to securely execute native functions and exchange data.

Does Tauri support auto-update functionality and capability-based security models for desktop applications?▼

Yes, Tauri includes built-in auto-update functionality for desktop applications and utilizes a robust capability-based security model to ensure safe native API access from the web frontend.

Do I need to know Rust to set up a Tauri project with a React frontend?▼

Yes, setting up a Tauri project with a React frontend requires Rust knowledge to configure the backend, implement IPC commands, and manage the plugin system, while utilizing standard web technologies for the UI.
