⚠️ CURRENTLY UNMAINTAINED ⚠️

😎 Features

• Create webview windows with your own title and URL
• Bidirectional communication between your frontend and backend
• Compile your apps as executables and even make installers
• And most of what you get with Deno, e.g, TypeScript out of the box...

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

🎁 Demo

Note: Latest public release only supports Windows and Linux, MacOS is not supported. This will be fixed in the next release.

⚠️ This will fail as Astrodon is currently unmaintained

Run the demo:

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

📜 To-do

• Unit tests
• Cross-platform compiling (missing: Apple Silicon)
• Typescript checking in the background (astrodon-build's Develop should
  manage this)
• Pass permission and arguments as flags and also put them in the executable
  metadata
• Organize project a little bit better (e.g move dependencies to deps.ts)
• A real-world app example
• Update the templates (wip)
• Match deno_runtime version (and also things like Deno.build) with
  Deno's releases
• Implement Web Workers
• Schematize and create plugin system
• Organize configs by usage hierarchy (e.g. global.icon -> build.icon)
• Ability apps register custom system URI protocols (installer)
• Add Cli command astrodon clean to remove cached runtimes
• Make Cli's command astrodon run also support HTTPs uris
  • Add support for common permission flags as CLI arguments

🤔 Plugins ideas

• Cross process reactivity module (plugin)
• Cross process store module (plugin)
• Env variable manager and injection for builds (plugin)

👩‍💻 Development

Requisites:

• Install the tauri dependencies as indicated in
  Tauri's Guide.
• Rust (stable toolchain)
• Deno

Running both Deno and Rust tests:

deno task test
