“Open source, small secure and why burn down the world?” — Listening to one of the key developers of https://tauri.app/ describe his motivations on a https://changelog.com/podcast/497 podcast made me reflect on how developers choose to make small native apps. Tauri was built for the “security-focused, privacy-respecting, and environmentally-conscious” (that is, small and less power consuming) software engineering community.

Working out the best technology to write a maintainable app with ends up being a balance between where you are, what you know as well as what’s available.

It looks like a strong option for engineering teams looking to turn web designs into small apps.
