Hello fellow gophers! I maintain Wails, an open-source framework for building applications with Go and a web frontend. Today we released v3.0.0, including experimental support for iOS and Android alongside Windows, macOS and Linux.
Wails uses the platform’s WebView rather than bundling a browser. Your backend is Go, and your frontend can use plain JavaScript or a framework such as React, Vue or Svelte.
Some highlights of v3:
Modular Go services with startup and shutdown hooks. Public service methods are exposed through generated JavaScript/TypeScript bindings.
Multiple windows, native menus and system tray integration on desktop.
An in-app updater.
Taskfile-based builds you can inspect and customise.
A guided setup flow and new documentation.
Mobile support is experimental, and platform capabilities differ; desktop features such as system tray integration don’t apply everywhere. You can also compile a server build.…
