Electron vs Tauri The Future of Desktop Apps

ResidentJune 4, 2026 at 1:38 PM

Everyone who has recently noticed gets discussed electron tauri, the last very went, in halfpinka and update and setup and shell and well packages

I don't know exactly, but the electron seems to be close to death, tauri in everything (almost) better, except the main minus is that it every javascript will pull rust.

rust in tauri is an optional thing, you can cope with js if you don't need any win32api

Personally for me, the application makes sense if there are any difficult tasks that require optimization.

I don’t think it’s going to be on the so-called “best practices.”

Denis ChernovJune 4, 2026 at 3:08 PM

This is called "marketing" because tauri gently speaking is no better than an electron in many parameters.

Denis ChernovJune 4, 2026 at 3:09 PM

built-in webview is the worst compromise, a lot of people can approach, but a lot of people will not critically fit.

Opencode has switched to electron from taury because of bullshit. Until something more stable comes out (I doubt it will be soon), electron won’t die for large-scale projects tied to JS Libah.

go to omp.sh

Den SinJune 4, 2026 at 4:10 PM

Another such idea was recently seen on Twitter https://github.com/ProxySoul/soulforge, MB as an extension for pi spell, benchmarks compared to stock opencod not bad

I like omp more, there are sub-agents between themselves through irc can communicate, there are roles, handoff and a bunch of other cool chips

Den SinJune 4, 2026 at 4:58 PM

I have only an orchestrator -> search for the right/hypothesis+plan/code/validation before the committee, and all. Is there any profit in their communication with each other when there is an orchestrator?

Denis ChernovJune 4, 2026 at 3:55 PM

projects with graphics will never go on taury if adequate, as the built-in web view in safari imposes many restrictions including on fps60 without the possibility of switching.

In 99% of cases take because of growth and “high performance” in conditionally mobile or desktop applications you will never need.It is important that the tool just covers your needs, usually you very rarely encounter the fact that you do not have enough computing power because of which you will have to drag tauri.

It was all too easy with him =)

I passed the way of Electron, Neutralino, Tauri, Wails, Electron. If the desktop is just electron. But this is my way, for somebody it will be questionable.

HakonJune 4, 2026 at 4:37 PM

Have you tried the electrobun?

DmitriyJune 4, 2026 at 4:42 PM

Yes. The euphoria passed quickly when I made sure that there was no 14MB bandle there at first. Hello world 30MB I managed. A little, but why lie? But yes yes... This is all I do wrong) Plus in unpacked form 100MB because bun is so heavy. But why then no one writes about this on the promo page. And if you get confused with cef, then attention! 950MB in the installed form. Nun. Of course, the next electronic killer splashed in 2.5 times the size of the app installed)

What a shame. 🙂

What did Tauri not like?

DmitriyJune 5, 2026 at 10:14 AM

System WebView. But this is a fat minus in my tasks.
