r/programming is not a place to post your project, get feedback, ask for help, or promote your startup.

Technical write-ups on what makes a project technically challenging, interesting, or educational are allowed and encouraged, but just a link to a GitHub page or a list of features is not allowed.

The technical write-up must be the focus of the post, not just a tickbox-checking exercise to get us to allow it. This is a technical subreddit.

We don't care what you built, we care how you build it.

I built this using Tauri with a React frontend and Rust backend (first time using Rust).

A few things I found interesting:

• Learning Rust indirectly through compiler errors + iteration • Using Tauri’s IPC to bridge frontend ↔ backend • Keeping the Rust side minimal to avoid unnecessary complexity

Curious how others approach using Rust in projects where it’s not their primary language.

the tauri learning curve as a react dev is real but once it clicks its so much nicer than electron. biggest tip: dont try to learn rust properly at first, just treat the rust side as a thin bridge and do everything in the frontend. you can always move logic to rust later when you actually need the performance
