tldr; they wanted to run a Tauri app in browser for dev purposes.

To do so, they shimmed the Tauri’s rust communication bridge to use web-socket to communicate with the main app’s rust implementation.

This is only used by dev, but if something like this is provided by Tauri/Electron it can probably enable a bunch of interesting use cases… (and probably a bunch of RCEs as well, though)

Do you know what is the purpose of the staging build? Not sure why the author requires that flag when building the binary.

Having built some stuff with Tauri, being able to debug using Chrome instead of a Safari/Webkit console would be _so nice_.

I have no idea about timeline, progress, or suitability, but IIUC the Tauri folks are exploring integration with Chromium Embedded Framework:

Absolutely not the same thing, but I’m going to shamelessly plug my Tauri MCP in case you find it helpful: https://github.com/hypothesi/mcp-server-tauri

With the debugging capabilities it gives agents, I find I don’t miss Chrome DevTools so much.
