Introduction
The traditional method of providing web interfaces to Go programs is via a built-in web server. Wails offers a different approach: it provides the ability to wrap both Go code and a web frontend into a single binary. Tools are provided to make this easy for you by handling project creation, compilation and bundling. All you have to do is get creative!
PLEASE NOTE: As we are approaching the v2 release, we are not accepting any new feature requests or bug reports for v1. If you have a critical issue, please open a ticket and state why it is critical.
Version 2
Wails v2 has been released in Beta for all 3 platforms. Check out the new website if you are interested in trying it out.

The legacy v1 docs can be found at https://wails.app.

FAQ
-
Is this an alternative to Electron?
Depends on your requirements. It's designed to make it easy for Go programmers to make lightweight desktop applications or add a frontend to their existing applications. Wails v2 does offer native elements such as menus and dialogs, so it is becoming a lightweight electron alternative.
-
Who is this project aimed at?
Go programmers who want to bundle an HTML/JS/CSS frontend with their applications, without resorting to creating a server and opening a browser to view it.
-
What's with the name?
When I saw WebView, I thought "What I really want is tooling around building a WebView app, a bit like Rails is to Ruby". So initially it was a play on words (Webview on Rails). It just so happened to also be a homophone of the English name for the Country I am from. So it stuck.
