Sure but most of the issues with Electron apps aren't to do with the web layer.

It's the fact that the app is so slow to launch, consumes ridiculous amount of resources, does not take advantage of the hardware, is unstable etc. And then when you're using the app all of the interactions are slow because NodeJS's concurrency is so poor.

Rust and Tauri fixes all of those. It's not perfect but for a cross-platform app development library I've not seen anything better. Happy to be enlightened with alternatives.
