Individual skill

tauri

Use when building a lightweight cross-platform desktop (or v2 mobile) app with Tauri — a Rust core plus the OS-native WebView: Rust commands and IPC, streaming to the frontend, the default-deny capabilities/permissions ACL, bundling and signed auto-updates. NOT a Chromium+Node shell needing Node APIs in a main process (that is electron).

# Tauri — Rust core, OS WebView, locked-down IPC, tiny binaries

Tauri builds a desktop (and, since v2, mobile) app from a **Rust core** plus the
**operating system's own WebView** — not a bundled browser. That is the whole value
proposition: ~12MB installers and 30-50MB idle RAM, versus Electron's ~180MB installers
and 150-300MB because it ships Chromium + Node. You write your UI in any web framework,
expose privileged work as Rust commands, and the WebView talks to Rust over a sandboxed
IPC bridge.

**Always target v2.** Tauri 2.0 went stable in October 2024; the current line is 2.x
(2.11.x as of mid-2026). v1 docs use a `tauri > allowlist` config that no longer exists —
if you see `allowlist`, you are reading the wrong era. v2 also adds iOS/Android targets,
so the same Rust core can ship to mobile.
