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!

Features

  • Use standard Go for the backend
  • Use any frontend technology you are already familiar with to build your UI
  • Quickly create rich frontends for your Go programs using pre-built templates
  • Easily call Go methods from Javascript
  • Auto-generated Typescript definitions for your Go structs and methods
  • Native Dialogs & Menus
  • Native Dark / Light mode support
  • Supports modern translucency and "frosted window" effects
  • Unified eventing system between Go and Javascript
  • Powerful cli tool to quickly generate and build your projects
  • Multiplatform
  • Uses native rendering engines - no embedded browser!

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 does offer native elements such as menus and dialogs, so it could be considered 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.
