> Lack of support for .appx and .msix bundles on Windows https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues/4818 Whoa, I had no idea about that. Tauri is way less fully baked than I realized. The bug goes on to explain that Tauri apps can't have Windows "package identity", which means that there's a bunch of Windows APIs you simply can't use in Tauri, including the notifications API. Without package identity, IMO, Tauri isn't ready for primetime on Windows.
