Which Framework Should I Choose: Electron, Tauri, or .NET MAUI?

I recently built an app using Tauri and found it quite simple without issues related to memory or bundle size. I haven't tried Electron though, so I can't compare directly.

I’ve dabbled with Tauri too, but I'd be cautious recommending it right now. WebkitGTK on Linux can be a hassle, and if you aren't already comfortable with Rust, learning it could slow you down and impact performance compared to other options. Electron may have its downsides, but it definitely gets the job done.

If you're coming from a .NET background and are familiar with C#, I'd suggest going with .NET MAUI. However, if you're looking to avoid the bloat that often comes with Electron, Tauri is a solid alternative and keeps the bundle size smaller.

From what I've experienced, Electron is the way to go for production applications. As a solo developer, mixing Rust and TypeScript can be stressful. I've successfully launched multiple apps with Electron, while Tauri might be nice in theory, it complicates debugging significantly—especially for a media server project where user experience is key.
