Many popular applications built with the Electron framework will likely migrate to Rust in the future.
What matters is that AI has made working with Rust easier, so we can expect to see more Rust based software emerge going forward.

most would keep the web UI though 😅 tauri is rust but still renders html, it just uses the system webview instead of shipping a whole chromium
for my own preferences when it comes to mobile app development I go with expo

The problem is that JavaScript frameworks like Electron and Tauri which run using a webview lack optimization.
We tried building the software using Tauri, but we didn't achieve the desired results, so we switched to pure Rust.
