Tauri Inter-Process Communication (IPC)
This skill covers Tauri's IPC system, including the brownfield and isolation patterns for secure communication between frontend and backend processes.
Overview
Tauri implements Inter-Process Communication using Asynchronous Message Passing. This enables isolated processes to exchange serialized requests and responses securely.
Why Message Passing?
- Safer than shared memory or direct function access
- Recipients can reject or discard malicious requests
- Tauri Core validates all requests before execution
- Prevents unauthorized function invocation
IPC Primitives
Tauri provides two IPC primitives:
