Hey everyone! 👋

I'm about to start a Windows-only desktop app (Windows 10+) and I'm trying to figure out if Tauri + React is the right stack, or if there's something better I'm missing.

What the app does is pretty simple: it saves a bunch of images, shows them in a list, lets you scroll/search through them, and open any item. Nothing fancy on the UI side.

The things that matter most to me:

• Light on resources. A lot of the users have older, weak PCs, so low RAM and CPU usage is a big deal.
• Stable and safe. The data inside is really important, so crashes and data loss are not an option.
• Windows only, so I don't need cross-platform.

Tauri looks perfect on paper, but I'm not sure it's the best fit for something where reliability matters this much. Has anyone shipped a Tauri app to real users on low-end Windows machines? How did it hold up?

And if you were starting this from scratch, would you still pick Tauri + React, or go with something else (C# WPF, etc.)?

Would love to hear your experience. Thanks! 🙏
