tauri-app-store

## When to use this skill

**ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions:**
- Persistent key-value storage for app settings
- Store vs LazyStore selection
- Saving user preferences or configuration to disk

**Trigger phrases include:**
- "store", "key-value", "app settings", "persistence", "preferences", "local storage"

## How to use this skill

1. **Install the store plugin**:
   ```bash
   cargo add tauri-plugin-store
   ```
2. **Register the plugin** in your Tauri builder:
   ```rust
   tauri::Builder::default()
       .plugin(tauri_plugin_store::Builder::new().build())
   ```
3. **Configure capabilities** in `src-tauri/capabilities/default.json`:
   ```json
   { "permissions": ["store:allow-get", "store:allow-set", "store:allow-save", "store:allow-load"] }
   ```
4. **Use the store from the frontend**:
   ```typescript
   import { Store } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-store';
   const store = await Store.load('settings.json');
   await store.set('theme', 'dark');
   await store.set('language', 'en');
   const theme = await store.get<string>('theme');
   await store.save(); // persist to disk
   ```
5. **Choose Store vs LazyStore**: Use `Store` for settings loaded at startup; use `LazyStore` for data loaded on-demand
6. **Auto-save** can be configured to persist changes automatically without manual `save()` calls
