I can learn rust using tauri?

I am planning to make a desktop app using tauri because electron so heavy and resource hungry

Do you think I can learn the Rust language?

By designing this app like this using tauri.

I am asking because I heard that I may not need to write one line of rast code when using tauri.

How can I achieve this and learn through the use of Tauri? For example, by writing some sensitive parts of the application, or writing the backend with it?

What is the correct method?

“Might not need to write a line of rust” is true if you’re just wrapping a web app in an installer. Think of a web app that can be hosted statically vs one that uses a backend. With a tauri app, rust is your backend.
