Tauri + SvelteKit + Flowbite UI Kit playground app

A skeleton multi-platform desktop application built with:

Use this application as a playground to learn about portable
app development with Tauri. It was created to complement this
article.

Features

Routing: src/routes/+page.svelte
describes how to configure a router to programmatically
switch between components in a Single Page Application
Events: src/routes/+page.svelte
and src/routes/Info.svelte
describe how to create event handlers and dispatch
events across multiple components
Stores: src/routes/+page.svelte,
src/routes/Welcome.svelte
and src/routes/Info.svelte
describe how to use context and stores to persist
the application state across multiple components and
dinamically update the rendered view as the stored
values get updated
App window customization: the tauri.windows section of
src-tauri/tauri.conf.json
has been customized to set the title, the default size
and initial positioning of the application window
UI Kit: Flowbite Svelte is used to rapidly design
an interface for the application
Icons: the Svelte-Heros-v2 icon set is used to
improve the appearance of the user interface
TypeScript: the code of the components describes
how to use TypeScript with SvelteKit

Prerequisites

Quickstart

Start the local development server as described in the
Usage paragraph
Check the Flowbite Svelte docs to learn about the
components
available to build the UI
Check the Tailwind
docs to learn about the CSS utility classes that are
available to customize the UI
Make some changes to the following files:
- src/routes/Welcome.svelte
- src/routes/Info.svelte
  the application will automatically update while it is
  running to display the changes

Usage

To start the application in development mode, run:

$ npm ci
$ npm run tauri dev

depending on the computational capacity of your computer the first
compilation could take a few minutes. Once the development server
is started, you will get automated hot-reload and the next starts
of the application will be much faster, as long as no new Rust
code needs compilation.

Release

To create a release for the current system architecture, run:

$ npm ci
$ npm run tauri build

For more information, check the official docs at:
https://tauri.app/v1/guides/building/

Build in CI/CD pipelines

The offical docs offer a tutorial to build apps for
multiple targets using GitHub Actions:

EU law notice

Attempting to mandate some baseline security practices to improve
the safety of the software distributed in its territory, the EU
published a very poorly designed draft of a new law.
The draft in its current form threatens the very existence of
open source software, making it impractical for independent
developers to safely distribute software and code.

I appreciate the intent, but the execution was just terrible.
I am writing this note to raise the awarness and encourage
everyone to act.

Please read the following articles and support the cause
of the independent software development:
