Queue: Tauri desktop live transcription app (Rust/TypeScript) #76
Description
Integration: Tauri
Why this is valuable
Tauri is the rising alternative to Electron for cross-platform desktop apps, with significantly smaller binaries and better performance. Desktop transcription tools are in high demand for meetings, note-taking, and accessibility. An Electron example is already queued — Tauri covers the Rust ecosystem and performance-focused developers.
Suggested approach
Build a Tauri desktop app with a TypeScript frontend and Rust backend that captures system/microphone audio, streams to Deepgram via WebSocket for real-time transcription, and displays a live caption overlay. Showcase Tauri's native audio capture via Rust side.
