Rewrite: Migrate ByteLab from Electron to Rust (icedRS) #1
Description
This project is undergoing a rewrite from Electron to Rust, using the icedRS framework. The goal is to leverage Rust's safety, performance, and cross-platform capabilities while moving away from the Electron stack. This effort will lead to better efficiency, lower resource usage, and a more maintainable codebase.
Key Points:
- Migrate all core functionality from Electron to icedRS
- Replace Node.js/JavaScript/TypeScript components with Rust equivalents
- Ensure feature-by-feature parity
- Maintain or improve UX throughout the rewrite
- Refactor architecture for idiomatic Rust patterns where sensible
This issue tracks the rewrite migration effort and can be referenced by related sub-issues or PRs.
