Before settling on Electron, I recommend exploring Tauri. It's more lightweight, it's better with sandboxing and it allows dropping down to Rust when performance is critical.

It's more lightweight because it doesn't include a browser engine. The obvious downside is that there is more room for compatibility issues. I'm not sure it's worth it.

I agree. https://tauri.app/start/prerequisites/

> Tauri requires various system dependencies for development on Linux. These may be different depending on your distribution ...

> WebView 2 is already installed on Windows 10 (from version 1803 onward) ...

> iOS development requires Xcode and is only available on macOS.
