#dioxus

So I have read some more about the whole #dioxus vs #tauri plus #leptos plus #axum for a #rust #rustlang #desktop app. From what I read by now, I would say that I will try the tauri route next. I would still prefer if Dioxus would just work, but what makes me wary about whether Dioxus would be a sustainable choice is that there's a lot of issues in the Dioxus repository that do not even have a reply by a maintainer. My own issues (which are relatively young!) have only little interaction. I get that this is an open source project and maintainer overload and so on, sure. But there's also something about Dioxus being funded? So there are full-time devs (plural!) working on it? What can I say? This makes me wary. Going down that tauri route would mean that I would need to build the whole thing myself. That could work, but is more than I would have liked to do. I want to develop my app functionality, not set up a GUI development environment. I could also go for a TUI first, but tbh, I would rather like to have a GUI first, with a clean API that I can then reuse to build a TUI on top of it. Not sure why, the other way around would probably work as well 🤔. Either way, I would then try leptos as framework for the app, because it looks rather good from what I can read from its documentation, and I can use axum in the backend, which I think fits my needs as well. (Btw developing this with ratatui with a axum backend would also be possible, but that's not the "native way" for a ratatui app, but much more for a leptos app as I understand it, so I expect less headaches here). I hope I can get a MVP fast, so I can get back to developing my core application stuff, because there's sooo much missing still.

I tried to get a VERY basic #dioxus app working for about 6 hours now. To no avail. I try to run a simple stream that counts to 100 in the server and the client should render a "loading percentage" from that. But the client only receives the first two messages and then just hangs and does not continue. I don't know why. And of course, joining their discord to ask them is not possible because FUCKING discord wants me to verify my account again and again... I re-logged in for about 8 times now, verified my email again and again, but these SHITHEADS over at discord just won't let me join another "server". Searching for the dioxus discord in their search did not help, clicking on "join" there just does nothing. If there were not expensive hardware on my desk, I would flip the table right now. FUCKING SHIT!
