I had a poke around in the wheel and it looks like a lot of the heavy lifting is done by this 30.8MB binary file:

pywry/_vendor/pytauri_wheel/ext_mod.cpython-310-darwin.so

Looks like that's vendored from this project: https://github.com/pytauri/pytauri

It's Electron! (Basically; I know it technically isn't.)

If you're going to use Tauri I dunno why you wouldn't just use Typescript. Why bring Python into things?

[simonw]

Because you like working Python more than typescript, and/or there are existing Python libraries you want to use that have no good typescript equivalent.
