Simple Todo App — Tauri Code
Demonstrates a simple Tauri app with a Todo list using a web frontend (HTML/JS) and Tauri APIs for desktop integration.
// main.js (frontend)
document.getElementById('addBtn').addEventListener('click', () => {
const input = document.getElementById('todoInput');
const todo = input.value.trim();
if(todo) {
const list = document.getElementById('todoList');
const li = document.createElement('li');

- ▸Cross-platform desktop apps for Windows, macOS, and Linux
- ▸Electron alternative for smaller binaries and better security
- ▸Internal tools and utilities for businesses
- ▸Apps requiring frontend-backend separation
- ▸Desktop apps integrating web-based UI frameworks
Notable Features
- ▸Tiny binary sizes compared to Electron
- ▸Built-in security and sandboxing
- ▸Cross-platform support: Windows, macOS, Linux
- ▸Integration with any frontend framework
- ▸Rust backend for system-level access
Origin & Creator
Created by the Tauri Programme within the open-source community starting in 2019, Tauri was designed to offer lightweight, secure alternatives to Electron apps.
Industrial Note
Best suited for desktop apps that require small binary sizes, high performance, and strong security guarantees while reusing web development skills.
