What problem does it solve?

Embedding and executing external binaries (sidecars) inside Tauri apps lets you extend functionality without shipping heavy dependencies or requiring users to install tools.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Configuration and registration of sidecars in tauri.conf.json under bundle.externalBin.
  • Cross-platform binary naming with target triples and platform-specific variants.
  • Rust and JavaScript APIs for spawning, arguments, streaming output, and lifecycle management.
  • Real-world scenario: ship a data processor as a sidecar and run it from the app to perform tasks without embedding large toolchains.

Quick Start

Install and configure a sample sidecar, then invoke it from Rust or JavaScript to observe output.
