Agent Skills: tauri-app-wasm

Compile Rust code to WebAssembly and run it in the Tauri v2 frontend for high-performance computation. Use when offloading CPU-intensive work to WASM in the WebView, deciding between WASM vs IPC for Rust logic, or optimizing frontend performance with Rust-compiled modules.

Description
"Compile Rust code to WebAssembly and run it in the Tauri v2 frontend for high-performance computation. Use when offloading CPU-intensive work to WASM in the WebView, deciding between WASM vs IPC for Rust logic, or optimizing frontend performance with Rust-compiled modules."

When to use this skill

ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions:

  • Running Rust code as WASM in the Tauri frontend
  • WASM vs IPC performance trade-offs
  • High-performance frontend computation

Trigger phrases include:

  • "WASM", "WebAssembly", "wasm-pack", "Rust in browser", "frontend performance"

How to use this skill

  1. Set up a WASM crate alongside your Tauri project:
    cargo install wasm-pack
    wasm-pack new my-wasm-lib
    
  2. Build Rust code to WASM:
    wasm-pack build --target web my-wasm-lib
    
  3. Import the WASM module in your frontend:
    import init, { process_data } from '../my-wasm-lib/pkg';
    await init();
    const result = process_data(inputBuffer);
    
  4. Choose WASM vs IPC:
    • Use WASM for CPU-bound computation that doesn't need system APIs (image processing, crypto, parsing)
    • Use IPC (invoke) for anything requiring OS access (file system, network, notifications)
  5. Monitor bundle size impact -- WASM modules add to the frontend bundle
  6. Benchmark to verify WASM gives measurable performance gains over JavaScript

Outputs

  • WASM crate setup and build pipeline
  • Frontend WASM module import pattern
  • WASM vs IPC decision framework
