    Having rich UI library was important for us too. We went with Tauri because we wanted access to web UI libraries.

    RAW files aren't supported yet, but we plan on including them. We're also working on a support page, I'll share that here when it's out.

    Yeah, we were talking about the app itself, it was way too big when we first started.

    Now knowing how big Electron is off the bat compared to Tauri, I think I'd have to learn a lot more about how to optimize Electron to build with it again. That said, I think Electr…

    Strange. From the comments here sounds like there are a lot of issues with Tauri's UI being inconsistent.

    Yes, we were able to port the CLIP model to work with ONNX Runtime for inference

    Yeah, familiarity with the UI component libraries was a big driver in using web technologies for it.

    Interesting. I'd love to get our app size down further, under 15MB would be great.

    Yes, it's nice that we can support the same functionality we were supporting in our Electron app using a much smaller binary with Tauri.

    I'd love to see a comparison like this.

    Interesting you ran into UI regressions on Windows. I'm looking forward for us to get to that point where we can test on a Windows and see what changes...hopefully it's smooth. Wit…

    sounds like you built a really useful app for working with large media libraries. In our case, the bottleneck was related to how big the app was to start and how much we could opti…

    thanks for checking it out. I'd love to write more about bundling redis binaries into these apps soon. There isn't a lot written about it now (at least that I could find) and it wa…

    What kind of issues are those? We want to support Windows soon. With Electron we had some cross-platform issues where our bundled binaries wouldn't run reliably in different platfo…

    Happy to share the experience. It was something we debated for a long time. Rebuilding something that is already kind've working is daunting, but in this case we are happy with the…

    We actually haven't rolled out cross platform support yet with the Tauri version, so we will see how that goes. Our UI needs are simple, luckily. What kind of rendering differences…
