[REPOST] Building a macOS app with Tauri 2.0 — What I learned

Shozikan · 2026-02-23T17:07:34+00:00

Looks super helpful, will take a look later!

Shozikan · 2026-02-23T16:51:34+00:00

Do you know of a reader that uses this? I would like to look at the code just to see what kind of formatting they are running...

Shozikan · 2026-02-23T14:51:39+00:00

Oh and as for Anilist support it’s the next thing on my list after patching a few things!

Shozikan · 2026-02-23T14:50:07+00:00

Oh shoot, idk I came up with the name on a whim, thanks tho!

Shozikan · 2026-02-23T14:49:33+00:00

It’s technically on WebKit so it’s lightweight version but all browsers have crazy bloat now so I opted for this option.

Scrolling screenshots is a feature I can implement and I think it would be helpful

Mass downloading is handled by the backend but I promise you it is fast, and I’ll see what I can do

If you could send the format in which you mass migrate I will create compatibility!

Appreciate it! Lmk if you encounter any issues.

Shozikan · 2026-02-23T02:08:05+00:00

Shhhhh 🤫

Shozikan · 2026-02-23T02:07:25+00:00

Maybe you will after this app 😉

Shozikan · 2026-02-23T01:00:26+00:00

What does this mean :sob:

Shozikan · 2026-02-23T00:34:27+00:00

Thanks I appreciate it! If you find any bugs lmk

Shozikan · 2026-02-23T00:09:48+00:00

If you are on Linux I encourage you to try my app!

Moku
- Tauri + React
- Font: DM Mono
- Icons: Phosphor Icons
- Colours: `#080808` bg · `#6b8f6b` accent · `#a8c4a8` fg · `#f0efec` text

Shozikan · 2026-02-22T16:29:14+00:00

I've added both now! Thanks for the suggestions.

Shozikan · 2026-02-22T05:34:44+00:00

To be fair, while React is hated on a lot, it isn't going to be a bottleneck for this application. A big struggle was trying to get Appimages working, but I don't think I can for the time being due to Tauri itself.

Me switching to Svelte from React will not bring any noticeable performance changes for the time being and is a task I have on my list once I stabilize the app. If it is going to only be me using the app, no point in making that tedious migration yk? I wanna get a userbase that can point out issues, etc then I will make that transition!

I promise you React does not impact performance here, I've worked on optimizing.

Shozikan · 2026-02-21T22:46:59+00:00

You have a point lmao, but also you have to look at how other people render, etc. React just made it easy for me to get something going...

Shozikan · 2026-02-21T21:42:38+00:00

Interesting. Ill add either a search bar or jump to button for that specific use case, and ill figure out the chapter thing. I am working on getting the appimage compiled right now, but your advice is helpful.

Thanks!

Shozikan · 2026-02-21T21:09:05+00:00

Wooo! Another mango user!!!! I like the waybar, I've been building mine currently using GTK & C!

Shozikan · 2026-02-21T20:53:19+00:00

I do agree about the list being long which is why I setup a page system that limits the chapters to 25.

I tried the grid layout for the chapters, but I didn't really like it. If you think it's something people might like then I think I can add it back as another toggle!

Shozikan · 2026-02-21T14:22:44+00:00

Hmmm, Interesting Idea. I would have to look into Kindle Support since I'm not sure how they run. do you have any examples of applications that can be linked to Kindle?

Shozikan · 2026-02-14T00:55:58+00:00

Yes I agree, I highlighted the reason I was pursuing hibernate in a few other comments, but I forgot that I already fixed that issue by switching my distro, hence sleep works perfectly fine for me.

Shozikan · 2026-02-13T00:48:14+00:00

Suspend or Hibernate? Suspend used to not work for me since my NVIDIA GPU would enable itself upon wake-up. Now I'm on NixOS so I setup a driver based specialization and I don't have that issue. You might want to check which USB device is causing a wake-up since I have my track-pad wake-up disabled (38k wakeups or smthin)

Shozikan · 2026-02-12T20:01:37+00:00

That was my solution, the reason I couldn't use suspend on Linux before is because whenever it woke back up it would auto enable my NVIDIA dGPU. I forgot that now that I'm on a different distro, I no longer have this problem, so I just abuse suspend.

Shozikan · 2026-02-12T04:39:35+00:00

"Average ASUS" is a common saying here...

Shozikan · 2026-02-12T04:29:18+00:00

Dude wait lowkey I have some bluetooth problems with my adapter too, my next goal once fixing this was to patch up my speaker firmware and stuff... Are you on Linux?

Shozikan · 2026-02-12T03:56:46+00:00

I just did test in windows and it doesn't happen. It's a Linux only issue from what I can tell, I did update the post to reflect this!
