Tiny (5MiB) Discord client built with Pake/Tauri. Warning: This is a showcase of Pake and Tauri and is not meant to be daily-driven altho working. You will not find many features that you are used to and that is not an error, its simply the limitations of the Discord T.o.S.
you can download a pre-build windows installer here for testing and educational purposes.
These tests were done on a intel i5 5200u [email protected], 4gb 1600mhz ram

In technicality, as this is still a build of the discord.com website, it does not violate the T.o.S. since it is not a custom client but rather a different runtime or browser. If we assume that tauri is just a one page web browser that is extremely minimal and that no changes are being made to the website, this is not against the t.o.s.
prerequisites: Rust, Npm (Nodejs)
