While truly a cool project, Tauri has proven to not be the right move for Unison at this time. The challenge revolve almost entirely around one of its major appeals: not bundling a browser rendering engine with the application. This means we can't consistently rely on web features across all platforms or older versions of platforms (testing on an old MacOS is increasingly difficult). Additionally the performance of the webview on Linux is a concern as we have users spread across all platforms. This commit fully migrates the app to run on Electron, but is missing work needed for distribution.
