Mas Agua provides a native desktop application built with Tauri v2, offering superior performance and native OS integration compared to web-based solutions.

​
Architecture

The desktop application combines:
  • Frontend: React + Vite application with Material-UI components
  • Backend: Rust-based Tauri runtime for native functionality
  • Communication: Tauri IPC bridge between frontend and backend

​
Technology Stack

Frontend

  • React 18 with Vite
  • Material-UI (MUI Joy)
  • React Router for navigation
  • MapLibre GL for mapping

Backend

  • Tauri v2.4.0
  • Rust 2021 edition
  • Native OS APIs
  • Secure IPC layer

​
Package Information

  • Product Name: Mas Agua
  • Package Name: masagua-desktop
  • Bundle Identifier: com.masagua.desktop
  • Current Version: 1.0.5

​
Tauri Plugins

The desktop app uses the following Tauri plugins:

​
Store Plugin (v2.4.1)

Persistent key-value storage for application settings and state. 
.plugin(tauri_plugin_store::Builder::default().build())
Frontend Usage: 
import { Store } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-store'

const store = new Store('settings.json')
await store.set('key', 'value')
const value = await store.get('key')

​
Updater Plugin (v2.4.1)

Automatic application updates from GitHub releases. 
.plugin(tauri_plugin_updater::Builder::new().build())
See Auto-Updates for implementation details.

​
Process Plugin (v2.0)

Process management and application lifecycle control. 
.plugin(tauri_plugin_process::init())
Frontend Usage: 
import { relaunch, exit } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-process'

// Restart application (used after updates)
await relaunch()

// Exit application
await exit(0)

​
Window Configuration

Default window settings from tauri.conf.json: 
{
  "title": "Mas Agua",
  "width": 1024,
  "height": 768,
  "resizable": true,
  "maximized": true
}

​
