Desktop App Framework (not there yet!) for Deno, based on Tauri

Important: Only Windows and Linux are supported at the moment. And, some older versions of Windows, even some old builds of Windows 10 might not come with Webview2 support, currently, a solution to this is to install Webview2 manually on the user's PC. This is a major issue if you are targeting users with "outdated" Windows, this may be solved by an installer that installs the webview2 and the app. We are open to suggestions.

• Create webview windows with your own title and URL
• Send messages from Deno -> Webview
• Compile your apps as executables

A lot is still missing, but we will get there!

Note: Only Windows and Linux are supported, macOS isn't supported yet (see astrodon#11)

Easily run the demo:

deno run -A --unstable --reload https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/examples/hello_world/demo.ts

This snippet always contains the most stable latest version of Astrodon, but you can always use the unstable versions by using github raw URLs on dev branch.

• Port more features from Tauri
• Create a Tauri context on the fly instead of relying in tauri.conf.json
• An optional cli to create and manage Astrodon projects
• Support macOS
• Support Webview -> Deno messages (waiting for denoland/deno#13162)
• Fix tauri-apps/tauri#3172 instead of relying on a fork

Requisites:

• If you want to compile the binaries yourself: install the dependencies as indicated in Tauri's Guide.
• Create a .env file, use examples/.env.example as a template.

Run the demo locally:

cargo build
deno run -A --unstable examples/hello_world/demo.ts
