  Yes! There are a few experiments with JS engines going on (all very early stage atm (and many vibe coded) but looking promising enough to justify doing a proper implementation in future).

  With this you can actually run regular React DOM (so fully compatible with deploying the same codebase to web). There is then the potential to mix in native components, although that's not fully built-out today.

  Finally, as part of this project we develop Dioxus Native (see https://github.com/DioxusLabs/dioxus and https://dioxuslabs.com). This allows you to write your app in a React-like framework in Rust, which also allows you to write a single codebase and compile to both native (desktop/mobile) using Blitz and to web (compiles to WASM, renders using real DOM nodes).

  How is this different / better than Leptos or Dioxus?

  The framework is actively developed at dioxuslabs.com with 22,000+ GitHub stars and a growing ecosystem. The component model is stable enough for production use.

• Velox: A Port of Tauri to Swift by Miguel de Icaza

  What's "rust scripting"? I don't see any mention of it in the docs nor dioxus native roadmap and AFAIK https://github.com/DioxusLabs/dioxus/tree/main/packages/inte... is used as the interpreter although I can't for the life of me figure out where the JS engine is actually instantiated.

  Rewrite Muscurdi - Password Manager in Rust with iced, dioxus and/or tauri ❌ Did not any of those, but I have explored tauri and I am some ideas on some other sideprojects with it. I did a little todo-app in tauri and svelte with a little persistence layer and it is lovely.

  > I don't see what advantage this gives

  I believe it may "just" be faster link times. Which may seem minor, but link times can often dominate incremental compile times because it's a slow and (at least historically) serial step which is O(total code size) even if the actual compilation is incremental.

  See mold's linking benchmarks: https://github.com/rui314/mold. It can be the difference between multiple 10s of seconds with traditional linkers vs <2s with newers ones.

  There are few strategies for dealing with these days:

  1. Is just to use a faster multi-threaded linker. On Linux, lld, mold, and wild on Linux are all much faster than the traditional ld/gold (and the latter two another step above lld). On macOS, then new built-in ld64 is pretty good. Not sure what the state is on Windows. Possibly lld is best?

  2. Is dynamic linking as above. This seems to be faster even though the dynamic links need to resolved at runtime. I presume because at least the links wholly within the dynlib don't need to be resolved.

  3. Is tools like Subsecond (https://github.com/DioxusLabs/dioxus/tree/main/packages/subs...) which effectively implement incremental linking by diffing the symbols in object files.
