## When to use this skill **ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions:** - Creating a new Tauri v2 app from scratch - Choosing a create-tauri-app installation method - Verifying first boot in dev mode **Trigger phrases include:** - "create-tauri-app", "new tauri app", "bootstrap", "start new project", "init tauri" ## How to use this skill 1. **Create the project** using the preferred package manager: ```bash # npm npm create tauri-app@latest # pnpm pnpm create tauri-app # cargo cargo install create-tauri-app && cargo create-tauri-app ``` 2. **Select a frontend template** (Vanilla, React, Vue, Svelte, etc.) when prompted 3. **Install dependencies** and start dev mode: ```bash cd my-tauri-app npm install npm run tauri dev ``` 4. **Verify the app boots**: confirm the window opens with the default template UI 5. **Check the project structure**: `src-tauri/` contains Rust code, `src/` contains frontend code, `src-tauri/tauri.conf.json` is the main config 6. **Choose installation method** based on trade-offs: npm/pnpm for JS-centric workflows, cargo for Rust-first setups ## Outputs - Working Tauri v2 project with chosen frontend framework - Dev mode verification confirming app window opens - Project structure overview for next steps ## References - https://v2.tauri.app/start/create-project/ - https://v2.tauri.app/start/project-structure/ ## Keywords create-tauri-app, tauri v2, new project, scaffold, bootstrap, dev mode
