SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Keeping Tauri dependencies current is error-prone because the JavaScript @tauri-apps/api package and the Rust tauri crate must maintain matching minor versions, and plugins require exact version parity across npm and cargo. This Skill guides the full update workflow so version mismatches and broken builds are avoided. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Cross-ecosystem updates: Update the Tauri CLI and API packages via npm, yarn, or pnpm, and update the tauri and tauri-build crates in src-tauri/Cargo.toml manually or with cargo-edit. - Outdated version checks: Detect stale Tauri packages with npm outdated, yarn outdated, pnpm outdated, and cargo outdated. - Plugin version parity: Update Tauri plugins (e.g., @tauri-apps/plugin-shell and tauri-plugin-shell) to the exact same version on both sides. - Use Case: You want to add a new Tauri feature that requires a newer minor version. Use this Skill to bump both the npm packages and Rust crates in sync, run cargo update, and rebuild to verify compatibility. ## Quick Start Update all Tauri dependencies in my project to the latest versions and verify the JavaScript and Rust sides stay in sync.

FAQPage Schema
How do I update Tauri dependencies to the latest version?

Update the JavaScript side with npm install @tauri-apps/cli@latest @tauri-apps/api@latest (or the yarn/pnpm equivalent), then bump the tauri and tauri-build versions in src-tauri/Cargo.toml and run cargo update. Rebuild the project to verify compatibility.

How do I check for outdated Tauri packages?

Run npm outdated, yarn outdated, or pnpm outdated and filter for tauri packages on the JavaScript side. For Rust crates, install cargo-outdated and run cargo outdated from the src-tauri directory.

Do @tauri-apps/api and the tauri crate versions need to match?

Yes, the JavaScript @tauri-apps/api package and the Rust tauri crate must maintain matching minor versions. For Tauri plugins, the npm package and cargo crate require exact version parity, such as both at 2.2.1.

How do I update a Tauri plugin like plugin-shell?

Update the npm package with npm install @tauri-apps/plugin-shell@latest, then set tauri-plugin-shell to the same version in src-tauri/Cargo.toml and run cargo update. Both sides must be updated together to the identical version.

Why am I getting version mismatch errors after updating Tauri?

Version mismatch errors occur when the JavaScript and Rust sides are on different minor versions. Check @tauri-apps/api in package.json against the tauri crate in Cargo.toml, align them, and if Cargo.lock conflicts persist, delete it and run cargo update again.
