habitat VS tauri

And many more such as Scaleway, Oxide, Fuchsia, MeiliSearch, Vector, embark, Chef, BBC...

https://github.com/habitat-sh/habitat written by Chef devs

Personal anecdote: Habitat was developed as a sort of application deployment / configuration management tool in Rust, and the architecture there is roughly equivalent to an ECS. I found it a joy to work with and work on. Not sure if it's fundamentally a better software pattern, but it at least meshes with my brain better than how most OO-style software is laid out.

You can release any desktop application with web UI (Electron-style) using Tauri, here are some showcases

Have you looked into Tauri? https://tauri.app/

Neutralino.js | Tauri

Watercooler is a desktop GUI alternative to the ChatGPT site or the OpenAI playground, written with Rust and Tauri (https://tauri.app/).

If you get a chance, check it out! Any feedback is welcome!

https://tauri.app ? Use this to develop Rust app ?

That's my understanding.

While it is possible to run Python on the browser, the typical solutions to do so has a lot of drawbacks:

- brython doesn't work with pip, doesn't implement full python spec, and has very limited tooling

- pyodide is very slow to load and execute

Plus, pynecone would have to solve the complicated problem of finding out how to delimitate what's python on the server side and on the client side, which we don't see in the API (and would complicate things for their target customer, somebody with little web dev experience).

So the decision makes sense knowing their goals and constraints.

You just have to understand the price you pay for it.

I can see myself using the product something I need to hack quickly that is a one page interactive program. Or for some of my clients with quants, geographers and the likes that often needs to make a small utility available but have only knowledge of basic python.

It also could be a good companion to tauri (https://tauri.app/) to create desktop app. To me that would be even more valuable to have finally an easy way to do a decent UI in python. Because QT, WX, GTK and Tkinter are not fun at all, and the web is an amazing platform.

If you normally use Electron, Tauri might be a good fit. You have several options for front-end (I like using Elm personally), and I managed to get a skeleton app up and running in just a few hours, so I think it’s worth a peek.

Doing some research about Photino, I also found Tauri and Neutralinojs.

I'm the lead developer on Spyglass, an open-source personal search application that let's you search your corner of the internet. Built using full-stack Rust, Tauri & Yew for the client, and Tantivy for our search backend.
