Issue & Goal

• opening the app in release mode does not show the tray icon or do anything
• tauri looks to be working and sending the applicationDidFinishLaunching event but nothing happens
• the goal is to have this run on macOS (no sandboxing needed)

Notes

Overall

• you will have to download the rclone binary from the website yourself. if you already have rclone installed, it will be used instead of the binary.
• the main window runs the main.ts file that's at the project root, it is not related to the vite app. it gets compiled by the buildExternal.js script and added to the vite bundle through the public directory.
• sometimes rclone binary does not start correctly and the loading tray icons is stuck forever, i'd like to solve that too but this is more of a notice to restart the app if that happens.
