+title: Alpha 10 Released - A New Chapter for Wails
+description: Announcing Wails v3 Alpha 10 and our new daily release strategy
+date: 2024-12-03
+author: The Wails Team
+---
+
+# Alpha 10 Released - A New Chapter for Wails
+
+We're thrilled to announce the release of **Wails v3 Alpha 10** - and it's big! While our release cadence may have seemed slow recently, there's been an incredible amount of work happening behind the scenes. Today marks not just another release, but a shift in how we approach the development of Wails.
+
+## Why the Wait?
+
+Like many development teams, we fell into the trap of trying to achieve perfection before each release. We wanted to squash every bug, polish every feature, and ensure everything was just right. But here's the thing - software is never truly bug-free, and waiting for that mythical state only delays getting improvements into your hands.
+
+## Our New Release Strategy
+
+Starting today, we're adopting a **daily release strategy**. Any new changes merged during the day will be released at the end of that day. This approach will:
+
+- Get bug fixes and features to you faster
+- Provide more frequent feedback loops
+- Speed up our journey to Beta
+- Make the development process more transparent
+
+This means you might see more frequent, smaller releases rather than occasional large ones. We believe this will benefit everyone in the Wails community.
+
+## How You Can Help
+
+We've been overwhelmed by the number of people wanting to contribute to Wails! To make it easier for contributors to get involved, we're implementing a new system:
+
+- Firstly, we are opening up bug reporting for alpha releases. The frequent releases allow us to do this.
+- Issues marked with **"Ready for Work"** are open for community contributions
+- These issues have clear requirements and are ready to be tackled
+- Most importantly, **we need people testing PRs** - this is one of the most valuable contributions you can make
+
+Testing doesn't require deep knowledge of the codebase, but it provides immense value by ensuring changes work across different environments and use cases.
+
+## What's Next?
+
+With our new daily release strategy, expect to see rapid progress toward Beta. We're committed to maintaining momentum and getting Wails v3 to a stable release as quickly as possible without sacrificing quality.
+
+And who knows? There might be a few surprises along the way... 😉
+
+## Thank You
+
+To everyone who has contributed code, tested releases, reported bugs, or simply used Wails - thank you. Your support and feedback drive this project forward.
+
+Here's to more frequent releases, faster iteration, and an exciting journey ahead!

+
+Wails v3 is a **full-stack desktop framework** consisting of a Go runtime,
+a JavaScript bridge, a task-driven tool-chain and a collection of templates that
+let you ship native applications powered by modern web tech.
+
+This page presents the *big picture* in four diagrams:
+
+1. **Overall Architecture** – how every subsystem connects  
+2. **Runtime Flow** – what happens when JS calls Go and vice-versa  
+3. **Development vs Production** – two modes of the asset server  
+4. **Platform Implementations** – where OS-specific code lives

+title: Asset Server
+description: How Wails v3 serves and embeds your web assets in development and production
+sidebar:
+  order: 4
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+Every Wails application ships a **single native executable** that combines:
+
+1. Your *Go* backend  
+2. A *Web* frontend (HTML + JS + CSS)
+
+The **Asset Server** is the glue that makes this possible.  
+It has **two operating modes** that are selected at compile-time via Go build
+tags:
+
+| Mode | Tag | Purpose |
+|------|-----|---------|
+| **Development** | `//go:build dev` | Fast iteration with hot-reload |
+| **Production**  | `//go:build !dev` | Zero-dependency, embedded assets |
+
+The implementation lives in  
+`v3/internal/assetserver/` with clear file splits:
+
+```
+assetserver_dev.go        # ⬅️ runtime dev server
+assetserver_production.go # ⬅️ embedded server
+assetserver_darwin.go     # OS-specific helpers (same for linux/windows)
+asset_fileserver.go       # Shared static file logic
+content_type_sniffer.go   # MIME type detection
+ringqueue.go              # Tiny LRU for mime cache
+```
+
+---
+
+## Development Mode
+
+### Lifecycle
+
+1. `wails3 dev` boots and **spawns your frontend dev server**  
+   (Vite, SvelteKit, React-SWC …) by running the task defined in
+   `frontend/Taskfile.yml` (usually `npm run dev`).
+2. Wails starts the **Dev Asset Server** listening on `localhost:<random>` and
+   tells the Go runtime to load `http://<host>:<port>` as the window URL.
+3. Incoming requests are handled by `assetserver_dev.go`:
+
+   ```
+   ┌─────────┐  /runtime/...          ┌─────────────┐
+   │ Browser │ ── native bridge  ───▶ │   Runtime   │
+   ├─────────┤                       └─────────────┘
+   │   JS    │  / (index.html)        proxy / -> Vite
+   └─────────┘ ◀─────────────┐
+                 AssetServer │
+                             ▼
+                      ┌────────────┐
+                      │  Vite Dev  │
+                      │   Server   │
+                      └────────────┘
+   ```
+
+4. Static files (`/assets/logo.svg`) are **served directly from disk** via
+   `asset_fileserver.go` (for speed) while anything unknown is **proxied** to
+   the framework dev server, giving you *instant* hot-module replacement.
+
+### Features
+
+* **Live Reload** – Vite/Snowpack/… injects HMR WebSocket; Wails only has to
+  proxy it.
+* **Source Map Support** – because assets are not bundled, your browser devtools
+  map errors back to original source.
+* **No Go Re-compile** – Only the frontend rebuilds; Go code stays running until
+  you change `.go` files.
+
+### Switching Frameworks
+
+The dev proxy is **framework-agnostic**:
+
+* The `wails.json` template injects two env vars:
+  `FRONTEND_DEV_HOST` & `FRONTEND_DEV_PORT`.
+* Taskfiles for each template emit those vars before running their dev servers.
+* `assetserver_dev.go` simply proxies to that target.
+
+Add a new template → define its dev task → Asset Server just works.
+
+---
+
+## Production Mode
+
+When you run `wails3 build` the pipeline:
+
+1. Runs the frontend **production build** (`npm run build`) producing
+   `/frontend/dist/**`.
+2. **Embeds** that folder into `go:embed` FS at compile time (see
+   `bundled_assetserver.go` generated file).
+3. Compiles the Go binary with `-tags production` (implicit).
+
+### Request Handling
+
+```go
+func (h *Handler) ServeHTTP(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    // 1. Try embedded static assets (exact path)
+    // 2. Fallback to index.html for SPA routing
+    // 3. Sniff content-type if extension unknown
+    // 4. Set strong cache headers
+}
+```
+
+* **MIME Detection** – If the build tool produced extension-less files (e.g.
+  `/assets/manifest`) `content_type_sniffer.go` inspects the first 512 bytes and
+  caches the result in a tiny lock-free LRU.
+* **Ring Queue Caching** – Frequently accessed assets (logo, CSS) are kept
+  in-memory for the lifetime of the app, removing the need for disk or embed FS
+  lookups.
+* **Security Headers** – Disallows `file://` navigation, enables `nosniff`.
+
+Because everything is embedded, the shipped binary has **no external
+dependencies** (even on Windows).
+
+---
+
+## Bridging Dev ↔ Prod
+
+Both modes expose the **same public interface**:
+
+```go
+type AssetServer interface {
+    URL()        string // dev: http://localhost:34115, prod: wails://app
+    Open() error // start listening
+    Close()      // graceful shutdown
+}
+```
+
+`pkg/application` happily uses whichever implementation was compiled in, meaning
+**your application code does not change** between `dev` and `build`.
+
+---
+
+## How Frontend Frameworks Integrate
+
+### Templates
+
+Each official template (React, Vue, Svelte, Solid…) contains:
+
+* `frontend/Taskfile.yml`
+* `frontend/vite.config.ts` (or equivalent)
+
+They export two tasks:
+
+| Task | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `dev`   | Starts the framework dev server on a **random free port** and prints it to stdout (`PORT=5173`). |
+| `build` | Produces static assets into `dist/` + manifest for cache-busting. |
+
+`internal/commands/dev.go` parses that stdout, sets `FRONTEND_DEV_*` env vars
+and launches the **Dev Asset Server**.
+
+Frameworks remain fully decoupled from Go:
+
+* No need to import Wails JS SDK at build time – the runtime injects it at
+  window creation.
+* Any framework with an HTTP dev server can plug in.
+
+---
+
+## Extending / Customising
+
+Need custom headers, auth, or gzip?
+
+1. Implement `type Middleware func(http.Handler) http.Handler`
+2. Register via `internal/assetserver/options.go`
+3. For prod, remember to add the same middleware in `assetserver_production.go`.
+
+---
+
+## Key Source Files
+
+| File | Role |
+|------|------|
+| `assetserver_dev.go` | Reverse proxy + disk file server |
+| `assetserver_production.go` | Embedded FS handler |
+| `options.go` | Config struct parsed from `pkg/options/assetserver` |
+| `build_dev.go` / `build_production.go` | Build-tag wrappers selecting correct implementation |
+| `bundled_assetserver.go` | Generated embed data (only present in production builds) |
+
+---
+
+## Gotchas & Debugging
+
+* **White Screen in Prod** – usually SPA routing: ensure `History API Fallback`
+  is enabled in dev and `index.html` fallback works in prod.
+* **404 in Dev** – mis-matched `FRONTEND_DEV_PORT`; run with
+  `WAILSDEV_VERBOSE=1` to print every proxied request.
+* **Large Assets** – they are embedded; consider
+  [`assetserver.WithExternalDir("/path")`](https://pkg.go.dev) to load from disk.
+
+---
+
+You now know how the Wails **Asset Server** feeds your web code to the native
+window in both **development** and **production**.  
+Master this layer and you can debug loading issues, add middlewares, or even
+swap in a completely different frontend tool-chain with confidence.

+
+> “Bindings” are the **type-safe contract** that lets you write:

+```
+
+in Go *and*
+
+```ts
+const msg = await window.backend.ChatService.Send("Hello")
+```
+
+in TypeScript **without manual glue code**.  
+This document breaks down *how* that magic happens, from **static analysis** at
+build time, through **code generation**, to the **runtime bridge** that moves
+bytes over the WebView.
+
+---
+
+## 1. 30-Second Overview
+
+| Stage | Component | Output |
+|-------|-----------|--------|
+| **Analysis** | `internal/generator/analyse.go` | In-memory AST of exported Go structs, methods, params, return types |
+| **Generation** | `internal/generator/render/*.tmpl` | • `pkg/application/bindings.go` (Go)<br>• `frontend/src/wailsjs/**.ts` (TS defs)<br>• `runtime/desktop/@wailsio/runtime/internal/bindings.json` |
+| **Runtime** | `pkg/application/messageprocessor_call.go` + JS runtime (`invoke.ts`) | JSON messages over WebView native bridge |
+
+The flow is orchestrated by the `wails3` CLI:
+
+```
+wails3 generate  ─┬─> generator.Collect()   // parse Go packages

+```

+---
+
+## 2. Static Analysis
+
+### Entry Point
+
+```
+internal/generator/analyse.go
+```
+
+`Analyse(cfg generator.Config)`:
+
+1. Recursively loads provided Go packages with `go/packages`.
+2. Walks the *type* and *value* specs of every AST file.
+3. Filters **exported** symbols (capitalised) outside `internal/` packages.
+4. Records:
+   * Receiver type (`struct`, `interface`)
+   * Method name
+   * Parameter list (name, type, pointer, variadic)
+   * Return tuple (values + error presence)
+5. Normalises types to a **serialisable set**  
+   (`int`, `float64`, `string`, `[]byte`, slices, maps, structs, pointers).
+
+Unsupported types produce a **compile-time error** so mistakes are caught early.
+
+### Model
+
+```go
+type Method struct {
+    ID       uint32 // stable hash for runtime lookup
+    Name     string
+    Params   []Param
+    Results  []Result
+    Receiver *Struct // nil for package funcs
+}
+```
+
+A deterministic **FNV-1a** hash (`internal/hash/fnv.go`) of
+`<Receiver>.<Name>(<Signature>)` becomes the *method ID* used at runtime.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Code Generation
+
+### Templates
+
+`internal/generator/render/` contains text/template files:
+
+| Template | Target |
+|----------|--------|
+| `go_bindings.tmpl` | `pkg/application/bindings.go` |
+| `ts_bindings.tmpl` | `frontend/wailsjs/go/models.d.ts` |
+| `ts_index.tmpl`    | `frontend/wailsjs/index.ts` |
+
+Add or adjust templates here to customise generation.
+
+### Go Output
+
+`bindings.go` registers a lookup table:
+
+```go
+var bindings = []application.BoundMethod{
+    {ID: 0x7A1201D3, Name: "ChatService.Send", Call: chatServiceSend},
+}
+
+func chatServiceSend(ctx context.Context, in []byte) ([]byte, error) {
+    var req struct{ Msg string }
+    if err := json.Unmarshal(in, &req); err != nil { return nil, err }
+    res, err := chatService.Send(req.Msg)
+    return json.Marshal(res), err
+}
+```
+
+Key points:
+
+* **Zero reflection** at runtime → performance.
+* Marshal/Unmarshal is **per-method** with generated struct wrappers.
+
+### TypeScript Output
+
+```ts
+export namespace backend {
+  export namespace ChatService {
+    function Send(msg: string): Promise<string>;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+* Emitted as **ES modules** so any bundler can tree-shake.
+* Method IDs are embedded in an auto-generated `bindings.json` for the JS
+  runtime.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Runtime Invocation Protocol
+
+### JavaScript Side
+
+```ts
+import { invoke } from "@wailsio/runtime";
+
+await invoke(0x7a1201d3 /* ChatService.Send */, ["Hello"]);
+```
+
+Implementation: `runtime/desktop/@wailsio/runtime/invoke.ts`
+
+1. Packs `{t:"c", id:<methodID>, p:[...args]}` into JSON.
+2. Calls `window.external.invoke(payload)` (WebView2) or equivalent.
+3. Returns a `Promise` that resolves/rejects based on the reply.
+
+### Go Side
+
+1. `messageprocessor_call.go` receives the JSON.
+2. Looks up `methodID` in the `bindings` slice.
+3. Executes the generated stub (`chatServiceSend`).
+4. Serialises `{result, error}` back to JS.
+
+### Error Mapping
+
+| Go | JavaScript |
+|----|------------|
+| `error == nil` | `Promise` resolves with result |
+| `errors.New(...)` | `Promise` rejects with `{message, stack, code}` |
+
+The mapping code lives in `runtime/desktop/@wailsio/runtime/errors.ts`.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Calling JavaScript from Go
+
+*Browser → Go* is covered above.  
+*Go → Browser* uses **Events** or **Eval**:
+
+```go
+window.Eval(`alert("Hi")`)
+app.Publish("chat:new-message", msg)
+```
+
+Binding generation is one-way (Go methods).  
+For JS-exposed functions use `runtime.EventsOn` in JS and `application.Publish`
+from Go.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Extending & Troubleshooting
+
+### Adding Custom Serialisers
+
+* Implement `generator.TypeConverter` interface.
+* Register in `generator.Config.Converters`.
+* Update JS runtime deserialisation if needed.
+
+### Unsupported Type Error
+
+```
+error: field "Client" uses unsupported type: chan struct{}
+```
+
+→ wrap the channel in a struct with an exposed API or redesign.
+
+### Version Skew
+
+Bindings are regenerated on **every** `wails3 dev` / `wails3 build`.  
+If IDE intellisense shows stale stubs, delete `frontend/wailsjs` and rebuild.
+
+### Performance Tips
+
+* Prefer **value** receivers for small structs to reduce allocations.
+* Avoid large byte slices over the bridge; use `application.FileServer` instead.
+* Batch multiple quick calls into one method to minimise bridge latency.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Key Files Map
+
+| Concern | File |
+|---------|------|
+| Static analysis entry | `internal/generator/analyse.go` |
+| Render pipeline | `internal/generator/generate.go` |
+| Template assets | `internal/generator/render/*.tmpl` |
+| Go binding table | `pkg/application/bindings.go` (generated) |
+| Call processor | `pkg/application/messageprocessor_call.go` |
+| JS runtime | `runtime/desktop/@wailsio/runtime/invoke.ts` |
+| Errors mapping | `runtime/desktop/@wailsio/runtime/errors.ts` |
+
+Keep this cheat-sheet handy when you trace a bridge bug.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Recap
+
+1. **Generator** scans your Go code → semantic model.  
+2. **Templates** emit **Go stubs** + **TypeScript definitions**.  
+3. **Message Processor** executes stubs at runtime.  
+4. **JS Runtime** wraps it all in idiomatic promises.
+
+All without reflection, without IPC servers, and without you writing a single
+line of boilerplate. That’s the Wails v3 binding system. Go forth and bind!

+title: Build & Packaging Pipeline
+description: What happens under the hood when you run `wails3 build`, how cross-platform binaries are produced, and how installers are generated for each OS.
+sidebar:
+  order: 6
+---
+
+`wails3 build` is a **single command** that drives a _multi-stage_ pipeline:
+
+1. **Frontend production build** (Vite / React / …)  
+2. **Asset embedding** into Go sources  
+3. **Native compilation** for the target OS/arch  
+4. **Post-processing** (icon injection, version info, codesign)  
+5. **Packaging** into a distributable artefact (AppImage, DMG, MSI, …)
+
+This document follows every stage, shows where the code lives, and explains how
+to customise or debug it.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Entry Point: `internal/commands/build-assets.go`
+
+```
+wails3 build                 # cmd/wails3/main.go
+└─ internal/commands.Build() # build-assets.go
+```
+
+High-level tasks are delegated to **Taskfile** targets so the same logic runs in
+CI or locally.
+
+| Stage | Taskfile target | Go implementation |
+|-------|-----------------|-------------------|
+| Frontend build | `frontend:build` | `internal/commands/task.go` |
+| Embed assets   | `embed:assets`  | generated `bundled_assetserver.go` |
+| Go compile     | `build:go`      | `tool_buildinfo.go`, `tool_package.go` |
+| Package        | `package:*`     | `internal/packager`, `internal/commands/*` |
+
+---
+
+## 2. Frontend Production Build
+
+1. The CLI changes into `frontend/` and executes the `build` task found in the
+   project `Taskfile.yml` (`npm run build` by default).
+2. Output is written to `frontend/dist/`.
+3. A **content hash** manifest is produced (`manifest.json`) so cache-busting
+   works out of the box.
+
+If the task fails the pipeline aborts early, returning the exit code of your
+build tool.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Embedding Assets
+
+Implemented in `internal/assetserver/build_production.go`:
+
+* Walks `frontend/dist` and generates a `go:embed` file
+  `bundled_assetserver.go` (ignored by git).
+* Adds the `production` build tag.
+
+Result: the final binary contains every HTML/JS/CSS byte, so the executable is
+self-contained.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Native Compilation
+
+### Build Flags
+
+| Flag | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `-tags production` | Select prod asset server & runtime stubs |
+| `-ldflags "-s -w"` | Strip symbol table & DWARF (smaller binaries) |
+| `-X internal/buildinfo.BuildTime=$(date)` | Embed reproducible metadata |
+
+`internal/commands/tool_buildinfo.go` collects version, git commit, and build
+time then injects them using `go build -ldflags`.
+
+### Cross Compilation Matrix
+
+| OS | Arch | Build Tag | CGO | Notes |
+|----|------|-----------|-----|-------|
+| Windows | amd64 / arm64 | `windows` | cgo enabled for WebView2 | Generates `.syso` via `internal/commands/syso.go` |
+| macOS   | amd64 / arm64 | `darwin`  | cgo enabled (Objective-C) | Codesign & notarisation tasks available |
+| Linux   | amd64 / arm64 | `linux`   | pure Go (webkit option)   | GTK/WebKitGTK headers required for CGO build |
+
+`wails3 build -platform darwin/arm64` overrides GOOS/GOARCH.  
+If CGO is needed on the host that can't compile the target (e.g. building
+Windows from Linux), the CLI falls back to **Docker** images (`ghcr.io/wailsapp/cross-compiler`).
+
+---
+
+## 5. Post-Processing
+
+### Icons & Resources
+
+* **Windows** – `syso.go` merges your PNG/ICO into a `.syso` that `go build`
+  links automatically.  Also writes `manifest.xml` enabling High-DPI support.
+* **macOS** – `icons.go` turns `icon.png` → `.icns`, injects into
+  `MyApp.app/Contents/Resources`.
+* **Linux** – `.desktop` files are generated in `/usr/share/applications`
+  by each packager backend.
+
+### Code Signing (Optional)
+
+* macOS: `codesign` + `xcrun altool --notarize-app`
+* Windows: `signtool.exe`
+* Linux: Not common (repository GPG handled externally)
+
+Task targets: `sign:mac`, `sign:windows`.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Packaging Back-Ends
+
+### Linux
+
+| Artefact | Code Path | Tooling |
+|----------|-----------|---------|
+| **AppImage** (default) | `internal/commands/appimage.go` | `linuxdeploy` + `linuxdeploy-plugin-gtk` |
+| **deb / rpm / pacman** | `internal/packager` | `fpm` (invoked via Go) |
+
+Flags:
+
+```
+wails3 build -package deb   # produces myapp_1.0.0_amd64.deb
+wails3 build -package rpm
+```
+
+### macOS
+
+* **DMG** – `internal/commands/packager.go` calls `appdmg` to generate a
+  drag-&-drop installer.
+* **ZIP** – fallback if `appdmg` is missing.
+* Sets CFBundle identifiers and version plist automatically.
+
+### Windows
+
+* **MSI** – `internal/commands/packager.go` wraps **WiX** candle & light tools.  
+  Heat autogenerates the component tree from the built `.exe`.
+
+Extra resources:
+
+* `internal/commands/windows_resources/` contains templated **.wxs** fragments.
+* Version info injected via `rsrc` utility.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Build Artefact Layout
+
+After a successful build the CLI prints:
+
+```
+build/bin/
+├── myapp-linux-amd64
+└── myapp-linux-amd64.AppImage
+
+build/package/
+└── myapp_1.0.0_amd64.deb
+```
+
+The exact files depend on `-platform` and `-package` flags.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Customising the Pipeline
+
+| Need | Approach |
+|------|----------|
+| Run a linter before build | Add a `lint` task in **Taskfile.yml** and make `build` depend on it. |
+| Extra linker flags | `wails3 build -ldflags "-H windowsgui"` |
+| Skip packaging | `wails3 build -skip-package` (keeps raw binary). |
+| Bring your own packager | Implement `internal/packager/<name>.go`, register in `packager.go`. |
+
+All Taskfile targets use environment variables exported by the CLI, so you can
+reference values like `$WAILS_VERSION` or `$WAILS_PLATFORM` inside custom tasks.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom | Likely Cause | Fix |
+|---------|--------------|-----|
+| **`ld: framework not found WebKit` (mac)** | Xcode CLI tools missing | `xcode-select --install` |
+| **Blank window in prod build** | Frontend build failed or SPA routing | Check `frontend/dist/index.html` exists and `History API Fallback` is set. |
+| **`wixl` not found** (Linux MSI cross-build) | WiX toolset not installed in Docker image | Use `--docker` build or install WiX manually. |
+| **Duplicated symbol `_WinMain`** | Mixed `windowsgui` flag and syso | Remove custom `-ldflags` or let Wails manage resources. |
+
+Verbose mode: `wails3 build -verbose` dumps every command executed.
+
+---
+
+## 10. Key Source Map
+
+| Concern | File |
+|---------|------|
+| Task runner glue | `internal/commands/task_wrapper.go` |
+| Build dispatcher | `internal/commands/build-assets.go` |
+| AppImage builder | `internal/commands/appimage.go` |
+| Generic packager interface | `internal/packager/packager.go` |
+| Windows resource generator | `internal/commands/syso.go` |
+| Build info injector | `internal/commands/tool_buildinfo.go` |
+| Version constants | `internal/version/version.go` |
+
+Keep this table handy when you trace a build failure.
+
+---
+
+You now have the full picture from **source code** to **installer**. Armed with
+this knowledge you can tweak the pipeline, add new packaging targets, or debug
+cross-compilation issues without fear. Happy shipping!

+1. **`pkg/`** exposes *what application developers import*  
+2. **`internal/`** contains *how the magic is implemented*  
+3. **`cmd/wails3`** drives *project lifecycle & builds*  
+4. **`examples/`** double as *living tests* and *reference code*

+Everything else supports those three pillars.

+
+## `cmd/` – Commands
+
+| Path | Notes |
+|------|-------|
+| `v3/cmd/wails3` | The **CLI entrypoint**. A tiny `main.go` delegates all logic to packages in `internal/commands`. |
+| `internal/commands/*` | Sub-commands (init, dev, build, doctor, …). Each lives in its own file for easy discoverability. |
+| `internal/commands/task_wrapper.go` | Bridges between CLI flags and the Taskfile build pipeline. |
+
+The CLI owns:
+
+* **Project scaffolding** (`init`, template generation)  
+* **Dev server orchestration** (`dev`, live-reload)  
+* **Production builds & packaging** (`build`, `package`, platform wrappers)  
+* **Diagnostics** (`doctor`)

+### Key Sub-Packages
+
+| Package | Responsibility | Where It Connects |
+|---------|----------------|-------------------|
+| `runtime` | Window/event loop, clipboard, dialogs, system tray. One file per OS with build-tags (`*_darwin.go`, `*_linux.go`, …). | Called by `pkg/application` and message processor. |
+| `assetserver` | Dual-mode file server:<br>• Dev: serves from disk & proxies Vite<br>• Prod: embeds assets via `go:embed` | Initialized by `pkg/application` during startup. |
+| `generator` | Parses Go source to build **binding metadata** which later produces TypeScript stub files and Go marshal/unmarshal code. | Triggered by `wails3 init` / `wails3 generate`. |
+| `packager` | Wraps platform-specific packaging CLIs (eg. `electron-builder` equivalents) into Go for cross-platform automation. | Invoked by `wails3 package`. |
+
+Supporting utilities (eg. `s/`, `hash/`, `flags/`) keep internal concerns decoupled.
+
+---
+
+## `pkg/` – Public API
+
+```
+pkg/
+├── application/   # Core API: windows, menus, dialogs, events, …
+├── runtime/       # JS-side helpers (bridge, events, screen, ...)
+├── options/       # Strongly-typed configuration structs
+├── menu/          # Declarative menu DSL
+└── ...            # Platform helpers (mac/, windows/, assetserver/, …)
+```
+
+`pkg/application` bootstraps a Wails program:
+
+```go
+func main() {
+    app := application.New(application.Options{
+        Name: "MyApp",
+        Assets: application.NewAssetsFS(assetsFS),
+    })
+    window := app.NewWebviewWindow(&application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+        Title:  "Hello",
+        Width:  1024,
+        Height: 768,
+    })
+    app.Run()
+}
+```
+
+Under the hood it:
+
+1. Spins up `internal.runtime.*`
+2. Sets up an `assetserver`
+3. Registers bindings generated by `internal.generator`
+4. Enters the OS main thread
+
+---
+
+## `examples/` – Living Specs
+
+Each sub-folder is a **self-contained application** exercising one feature.  
+Patterns you’ll see mirrored in real code:
+
+* Binding services (`examples/binding/`)  
+* Multi-window (`examples/window/`)  
+* System tray (`examples/systray-*`)  
+* Packaging (`examples/file-association/`)  
+
+When in doubt, start here and drill into implementation.
+
+---
+
+## `templates/` – Scaffolding Blueprints
+
+`internal/templates` ships **base templates** (Go layout) and **frontend skins**
+(React, Svelte, Vue, …).  
+At `wails3 init -t react`, the CLI:
+
+1. Copies `_common` Go files
+2. Merges desired frontend pack
+3. Runs `npm install` + `task deps`
+
+Editing templates **does not** affect existing apps, only future `init`s.
+
+---
+
+## `tasks/` – Release Automation
+
+Taskfiles wrap complex cross-compilation, version bumping, and changelog
+generation. They are consumed programmatically by `internal/commands/task.go`
+so the same logic powers **CLI** and **CI**.
+
+---
+
+## How the Pieces Interact
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    A[wails3 CLI] -- build/generate --> B[internal.generator]
+    A -- dev --> C[assetserver (dev)]
+    A -- package --> P[internal.packager]

+        F --> G[OS APIs]
+        E --> C
+    end
+
+    B --> E  %% generated bindings registered at init
+```
+
+*CLI → generator → runtime* forms the core path from **source** to **running
+desktop app**.
+
+---
+
+## Orientation Tips
+
+| Need to understand… | Look at… |
+|---------------------|----------|
+| Platform shims | `internal/runtime/*_DARWIN.go`, `*_windows.go`, … |
+| Bridge protocol | `pkg/application/messageprocessor_*.go` |
+| Asset workflow | `internal/assetserver`, `v3/templates/base/assets` |
+| Packaging flow | `internal/commands/appimage.go`, `internal/packager` |
+| Template engine | `internal/templates/templates.go` |
+| Static analysis | `internal/generator/*` |
+
+---
+
+You now have a **mental map** of the repository.  
+Use it with `ripgrep`, your IDE’s “Go to File/Symbol”, and the example apps to
+navigate deeper into any feature. Happy hacking!

+title: Extending Wails
+description: Practical guide to adding new features and platforms to Wails v3
+sidebar:
+  order: 8
+---
+
+> Wails is designed to be **hackable**.  
+> Every major subsystem lives in Go code you can read, modify, and ship.  
+> This page shows _where_ to start and _how_ to stay cross-platform when you:
+
+* Add a **Service** (file server, KV store, custom IPC…)
+* Create a **new CLI command** (`wails3 <foo>`)
+* Extend the **Runtime** (window API, dialogs, events)
+* Introduce a **Platform capability** (Wayland, Apple Vision OS…)
+* Keep **cross-platform compatibility** without drowning in `//go:build` tags
+
+---
+
+## 1. Adding a Service
+
+Services are background Go components exposed to apps via the `application.Context`.
+
+```
+internal/service/
+├── template/            # Boilerplate for new services
+│   ├── template.go
+│   └── README.md
+└── service.go           # Registration + lifecycle interfaces
+```
+
+### 1.1 Define the Service
+
+```go
+package chat
+
+type Service struct {
+    messages []string
+}
+
+func New() *Service { return &Service{} }
+
+func (s *Service) Send(msg string) string {
+    s.messages = append(s.messages, msg)
+    return "ok"
+}
+```
+
+### 1.2 Implement `service.Service`
+
+```go
+func (s *Service) Init(ctx *application.Context) error { return nil }
+func (s *Service) Shutdown() error                     { return nil }
+```
+
+### 1.3 Register Generator
+
+*Add to* `internal/generator/collect/services.go`
+
+```go
+services.Register("chat", chat.New)
+```
+
+> Now `wails3 generate` emits bindings so JS can call
+> `window.backend.chat.Send("hi")`.
+
+### 1.4 Ship an Example
+
+Copy `v3/examples/services/` and adjust.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Writing a New CLI Command
+
+CLI logic lives under `internal/commands/`.  
+Each command is **one file** that mounts itself in `init()`.
+
+### 2.1 Create the File
+
+`v3/internal/commands/hello.go`
+
+```go
+package commands
+
+import (
+    "github.com/spf13/cobra"
+)
+
+func init() {
+    Add(&cobra.Command{
+        Use:   "hello",
+        Short: "Prints Hello World",
+        RunE: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) error {
+            cmd.Println("Hello Wails!")
+            return nil
+        },
+    })
+}
+```
+
+`Add()` registers with the root in `cmd/wails3/main.go`.
+
+### 2.2 Re-compile CLI
+
+```
+go install ./v3/cmd/wails3
+wails3 hello
+```
+
+If your command needs **Taskfile** integration, reuse helpers in
+`internal/commands/task_wrapper.go`.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Modifying the Runtime
+
+Common reasons:
+
+* New window feature (`SetOpacity`, `Shake`, …)
+* Extra dialog (`ColorPicker`)
+* System-level API (screen brightness)
+
+### 3.1 Public API
+
+Add to `pkg/application/window.go`:
+
+```go
+func (w *WebviewWindow) SetOpacity(o float32) {
+    w.ctx.Call("window:setOpacity", o)
+}
+```
+
+### 3.2 Message Processor
+
+Create `messageprocessor_window_opacity.go`:
+
+```go
+const MsgSetOpacity = "window:setOpacity"
+
+func init() { register(MsgSetOpacity, handleSetOpacity) }
+
+func handleSetOpacity(ctx *Context, params json.RawMessage) ([]byte, error) {
+    var req struct {
+        ID      uint64  `json:"id"`
+        Opacity float32 `json:"o"`
+    }
+    json.Unmarshal(params, &req)
+    return nil, runtime.SetOpacity(req.ID, req.Opacity)
+}
+```
+
+### 3.3 Platform Implementation
+
+```
+internal/runtime/
+    webview_window_darwin.go
+    webview_window_linux.go
+    webview_window_windows.go
+```
+
+Add `SetOpacity()` to each, guarded by build tags.  
+If a platform can’t support it, return `ErrCapability`.
+
+### 3.4 Capability Flag
+
+Expose via `internal/capabilities`.
+
+```go
+const CapOpacity = "window:opacity"
+```
+
+Runtime files `*_darwin.go` etc. should `registerCapability(CapOpacity)` when
+successfully initialised.
+
+Apps can query:
+
+```go
+if application.HasCapability(application.CapOpacity) { ... }
+```
+
+---
+
+## 4. Adding New Platform Capabilities
+
+Example: **Wayland** clipboard on Linux.
+
+1. Fork `internal/runtime/clipboard_linux.go`.
+2. Split file:
+   * `clipboard_linux_x11.go` → `//go:build linux && !wayland`
+   * `clipboard_linux_wayland.go` → `//go:build linux && wayland`
+3. Add CLI flag `--tags wayland` in `internal/commands/dev.go`
+   (`goEnv.BuildTags += ",wayland"`).
+4. Document in **Asset Server** & README.
+
+> Keep default build tags minimal; reserve opt-in tags for niche features.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Cross-Platform Compatibility Checklist
+
+| ✅ Step | Why |
+|---------|-----|
+| Provide **every** public method in all platform files (even if stub) | Keeps build green on all OS/arch |
+| Gate platform specifics behind **capabilities** | Let apps degrade gracefully |
+| Use **pure Go** first, CGO only when needed | Simplifies cross-compiles |
+| Test with `task matrix:test` | Runs `go test ./...` on linux/mac/windows in Docker |
+| Document new build tags in `docs/getting-started/installation.mdx` | Users must know flags |
+
+---
+
+## 6. Debug Builds & Iteration Speed
+
+* `wails3 dev -tags debug` adds extra log hooks (`logger_dev*.go`).
+* Use `task reload` to rebuild runtime without restarting the whole app.
+* Race detector: `wails3 dev -race` (see `pkg/application/RACE.md`).
+
+---
+
+## 7. Upstream Contributions
+
+1. Open an **issue** to discuss the idea & design.
+2. Follow the techniques above to implement.
+3. Add:
+   * Unit tests (`*_test.go`)
+   * Example (`v3/examples/<feat>/`)
+   * Docs (this file or API reference)
+4. Ensure `go vet`, `golangci-lint`, and CI matrix pass.
+

+title: Runtime Internals
+description: Deep-dive into how Wails v3 boots, runs, and talks to the OS
+sidebar:
+  order: 3
+---
+
+The **runtime** is the layer that transforms ordinary Go functions into a
+cross-platform desktop application.  
+This document explains the moving parts you will meet when tracing through the
+source code.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Application Lifecycle
+
+| Phase | Code Path | What Happens |
+|-------|-----------|--------------|
+| **Bootstrap** | `pkg/application/application.go:init()` | Registers build-time data, creates a global `application` singleton. |
+| **New()** | `application.New(...)` | Validates `Options`, spins up the **AssetServer**, initialises logging. |
+| **Run()** | `application.(*App).Run()` | 1. Calls platform `mainthread.X()` to enter the OS UI thread.<br>2. Boots the **runtime** (`internal/runtime`).<br>3. Blocks until the last window closes or `Quit()` is called. |
+| **Shutdown** | `application.(*App).Quit()` | Broadcasts `application:shutdown` event, flushes log, tears down windows & services. |
+
+The lifecycle is strictly **single-entry**: you may create many windows, but the
+application object itself is initialised once.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Window Management
+
+### Public API
+
+```go
+win := app.NewWebviewWindow(&application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+    Title:  "Dashboard",
+    Width:  1280,
+    Height: 720,
+})
+win.Show()
+```
+
+`NewWebviewWindow` delegates to `internal/runtime/webview_window_*.go` where
+platform-specific constructors live:
+
+```
+internal/runtime/
+├── webview_window_darwin.go
+├── webview_window_linux.go
+└── webview_window_windows.go
+```
+
+Each file:
+
+1. Creates a native webview (WKWebView, WebKitGTK, WebView2).
+2. Registers a **Message Processor** callback.
+3. Maps Wails events (`WindowResized`, `Focus`, `DropFile`, …) to runtime
+   event IDs.
+
+Windows are tracked by `screenmanager.go` which offers **query APIs** (all
+displays, DPI, active window) and centralises resize / move bookkeeping.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Message Processing Pipeline
+
+The bridge between JavaScript and Go is implemented by the **Message
+Processor** family in `pkg/application/messageprocessor_*.go`.
+
+Flow:
+
+1. **JavaScript** calls `window.runtime.Invoke("Greet", "Alice")`.
+2. The runtime serialises the request:  
+   `{"t":"c","id":"123","m":"Greet","p":["Alice"]}`  
+   (`t` = type, `c` = call).
+3. **Go** receives this JSON via the webview callback.
+4. `messageprocessor_call.go` looks up the bound method in the
+   generated table (`application.bindings.go`) and executes it.
+5. The result or error is marshalled back to JS where a `Promise` resolves.
+
+Specialised processors:
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `messageprocessor_window.go` | Window actions (hide, maximize, …) |
+| `messageprocessor_dialog.go` | Native dialogs (`OpenFile`, `MessageBox`, …) |
+| `messageprocessor_clipboard.go` | Clipboard read/write |
+| `messageprocessor_events.go` | Event subscribe / emit |
+| `messageprocessor_browser.go` | Browser navigation, devtools |
+
+Processors are **stateless** – they pull everything they need from the
+`ApplicationContext` passed with each message.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Events System
+
+Events are namespaced strings dispatched across three layers:
+
+1. **Application events**: global lifecycle (`application:ready`,
+   `application:shutdown`).
+2. **Window events**: per-window (`window:focus`, `window:resize`).
+3. **Custom events**: user-defined (`chat:new-message`).
+
+Implementation details:
+
+* Constants are generated from `internal/events/defaults.go`.
+* Go side:  
+  `app.On("window:focus", func(e application.WindowEvent) {...})`
+* JS side:  
+  `window.runtime.EventsOn("chat:new-message", cb)`
+
+Under the hood both map to the same **EventBus** in
+`pkg/application/events.go`.  
+Subscribers are reference-counted; when a window closes, its callbacks are
+auto-unregistered to avoid leaks.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Platform-Specific Implementations
+
+Conditional compilation keeps the public API identical while hiding OS wrinkles.
+
+| Concern | Darwin | Linux | Windows |
+|---------|--------|-------|---------|
+| Main Thread | `mainthread_darwin.go` (Cgo to Foundation) | `mainthread_linux.go` (GTK) | `mainthread_windows.go` (Win32 `AttachThreadInput`) |
+| Dialogs | `dialogs_darwin.*` (NSAlert) | `dialogs_linux.go` (GtkFileChooser) | `dialogs_windows.go` (IFileOpenDialog) |
+| Clipboard | `clipboard_darwin.go` | `clipboard_linux.go` | `clipboard_windows.go` |
+| Tray Icons | `systemtray_darwin.*` | `systemtray_linux.go` (DBus) | `systemtray_windows.go` (Shell_NotifyIcon) |
+
+Key principles:
+
+* **No Cgo on Windows/Linux** unless unavoidable (performance, portability).
+* Use **build tags** (`//go:build darwin && !production`) to keep files readable.
+* Expose **capabilities** via `internal/capabilities` so higher layers can
+  degrade gracefully.
+
+---
+
+## 6. File Guide
+
+| File | Why You’d Touch It |
+|------|--------------------|
+| `internal/runtime/runtime_*.go` | Change global startup logic, add debug hooks. |
+| `internal/runtime/webview_window_*.go` | Implement a new window hint or behaviour. |
+| `pkg/application/messageprocessor_*.go` | Add a new bridge command callable from JS. |
+| `pkg/application/events_*.go` | Extend built-in event definitions. |
+| `internal/assetserver/*` | Tweak dev/production asset handling. |
+
+---
+
+## 7. Debugging Tips
+
+* Launch with `WAILS_LOG_LEVEL=debug` to print every message crossing the bridge.
+* Use `wails3 dev -verbose` to see live reload & asset requests.
+* On macOS run under `lldb --` to catch Objective-C exceptions early.
+* For Windows Chromium issues, enable WebView2 debug logs:  
+  `set WEBVIEW2_ADDITIONAL_BROWSER_ARGUMENTS=--remote-debugging-port=9222`
+
+---
+
+## 8. Extending the Runtime
+
+1. Define a **capability flag** in `internal/capabilities`.
+2. Implement the feature in each platform file using build tags.
+3. Add public API in `pkg/application`.
+4. Register a new message type or event if JS needs to call it.
+5. Update at least one example in `v3/examples/` exercising the feature.
+
+Follow this checklist and you'll keep the cross-platform contract intact.
+
+---
+
+You now have a guided tour of the runtime internals. Combine this knowledge with
+the **Codebase Layout** map and the **Asset Server** docs to navigate confidently
+and make impactful contributions. Happy coding!

+title: Template System
+description: How Wails v3 scaffolds new projects, how templates are organised, and how to build your own.
+sidebar:
+  order: 7
+---
+
+Wails ships with a **template system** that lets `wails3 init` produce a ready-to-run
+project for **any** modern frontend stack (React, Svelte, Vue, Solid, Vanilla
+JS …).
+
+This page covers:
+
+1. Template directory layout  
+2. How the CLI chooses & renders templates  
+3. Creating a new template step-by-step  
+4. Updating or overriding existing templates  
+5. Troubleshooting and best practices  
+
+---
+
+## 1. Where Templates Live
+
+```
+v3/
+└── internal/templates/
+    ├── _common/           # Files copied into EVERY project (main.go, .gitignore)
+    ├── base/              # Backend-only “plain Go” template
+    ├── react/             # React + Vite
+    ├── react-ts/
+    ├── svelte/
+    ├── vue/
+    ├── ... (others)
+    └── templates.go       # Registry + helper functions
+```
+
+* **`_common/`** – universal boilerplate (Go modules, Taskfile, README stub,  
+  VS Code settings).  
+* **Framework folders** – contain **frontend/** and any stack-specific config.  
+* Folder names match the **template ID** you pass to the CLI  
+  (`wails3 init -t react-ts`).
+
+> The whole directory is compiled into the CLI binary via `go:embed`, so users
+> can scaffold projects offline.
+
+---
+
+## 2. How `wails3 init` Uses Templates
+
+Call chain:
+
+```
+cmd/wails3/init.go
+       │
+       ▼
+internal/commands/init.go  ← parses flags, target dir
+       │
+       ▼
+internal/templates.Load()  ← templates.go
+       │
+       ▼
+Template.CopyTo(dest)      ← filesystem copy + text substitutions
+```
+
+### Substitutions
+
+Placeholders wrapped in `{{ }}` are replaced at copy time:
+
+| Placeholder | Example | Source |
+|-------------|---------|--------|
+| `{{ProjectName}}` | `myapp` | CLI flag/dir name |
+| `{{ModulePath}}`  | `github.com/me/myapp` | if `--module` provided |
+| `{{WailsVersion}}`| `v3.0.0` | compiled constant |
+
+You can add **any** placeholder; just ensure it gets a value in
+`internal/commands/init.go`.
+
+### Post-Copy Hooks
+
+Each template may ship a **Taskfile** with a `deps` task.  
+After copy, the CLI runs:
+
+```
+task --taskfile Taskfile.yml deps
+```
+
+Typical work:
+
+* `go mod tidy`
+* `npm install`
+* git init & initial commit (optional)
+
+Hook behaviour defined in `_common/Taskfile.yml` but override-able per template.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Creating a New Template
+
+> Example: Add **Qwik-TS** template
+
+### 3.1 Folder & ID
+
+```
+internal/templates/qwik-ts/
+```
+
+The folder name = template ID. Keep it **kebab-case**.
+
+### 3.2 Minimal File Set
+
+```
+qwik-ts/
+├── README.md              # Shown in CLI with -list
+├── frontend/              # Your web project
+│   ├── src/
+│   ├── package.json
+│   └── vite.config.ts
+├── Taskfile.yml           # deps & dev tasks
+└── go/                    # Optional extra Go files
+```
+
+Start by copying `react-ts` and pruning files.
+
+### 3.3 Update Placeholders
+
+Search/replace:
+
+* `myapp` → `{{ProjectName}}`
+* `github.com/you/myapp` → `{{ModulePath}}`
+
+### 3.4 Register (optional)
+
+If the folder exists, **templates.go auto-detects it** via `embed`.  
+Only add explicit code if you need **custom validation**:
+
+```go
+func (t *Template) Validate() error {
+    // check Node ≥ 20 for this template
+}
+```
+
+### 3.5 Test
+
+```bash
+wails3 init -n demo -t qwik-ts
+cd demo
+wails3 dev
+```
+
+Ensure:
+
+* Dev server starts  
+* `wailsjs` bindings generate  
+* Hot-reload works  
+
+---
+
+## 4. Modifying Existing Templates
+
+1. Edit files under `internal/templates/<id>/`.
+2. Run `go generate ./v3/...` **or** just `go run ./v3/cmd/wails3 –help`; the
+   embed directive recompiles automatically.
+3. Bump any **dependency versions** in `frontend/package.json` & `Taskfile.yml`.
+4. Update `README.md` inside the template — users see it via  
+   `wails3 init -t react --help`.
+
+### Common Tweaks
+
+| Task | Where |
+|------|-------|
+| Change dev server port | `frontend/Taskfile.yml` (`vite dev --port {{DevPort}}`) |
+| Add environment variables | same Taskfile or `.env` |
+| Replace JS package manager | Switch `npm` → `pnpm` in Taskfile |
+
+---
+
+## 5. Template Authoring Tips
+
+* **Keep frontend generic** – avoid referencing Wails-specific globals; runtime
+  is injected automatically.
+* **No compiled artefacts** – exclude `node_modules`, `dist`, `.DS_Store` via
+  `.tmplignore`.
+* **Document prerequisites** – Node version, extra CLI tools, etc.
+* **Avoid breaking changes** – create a *new* template ID if overhaul is big.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
+|---------|-------|-----|
+| `unknown template id` | Folder name mismatch | Check `wails3 init -list` |
+| Placeholders not replaced | Missing entry in `Data` map | Edit `internal/commands/init.go` |
+| Dev server opens blank page | Wrong `DevPort` env | Ensure Taskfile echoes port to stdout |
+| Frontend fails to build in prod | Forgotten vite `base` path | Set `base: "./"` in `vite.config.ts` |
+
+Add `--verbose` to `wails3 init` to print every copied file and substitution.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Key Source File Map
+
+| File | Responsibility |
+|------|----------------|
+| `internal/templates/templates.go` | Embeds template FS, returns `[]Template` |
+| `internal/templates/<id>/**` | Actual template content |
+| `internal/commands/init.go` | CLI glue: picks template, fills placeholders |
+| `internal/commands/generate_template.go` | Utility to *export* a live project back into a template (handy for updates) |
+
+---
+
+## 8. Recap
+
+* Templates live in **`internal/templates/`** and are baked into the CLI.
+* `wails3 init -t <id>` copies `_common` + selected template, performs
+  substitutions, then runs a **deps** Taskfile hook.
+* Creating a template is as simple as **making a folder**, adding files, and
+  using placeholders.
+* The system is **extensible** and **self-contained** — perfect for sharing
+  custom stacks with your team or the community.
+
+Happy templating!

+---
+
+Robust desktop frameworks demand rock-solid testing.  
+Wails v3 employs a **layered strategy**:
+
+| Layer | Goal | Tooling |
+|-------|------|---------|
+| Unit tests | Fast feedback for isolated functions | `go test ./...` |
+| Integration / Example tests | Validate whole features across packages | Example apps + headless assertions |
+| Race detection | Catch data races in the runtime & bridge | `go test -race`, `wails3 dev -race` |
+| CI matrix | Cross-OS confidence on every PR | GitHub Actions |
+
+This document explains **where tests live**, **how to run them**, and **what happens in CI**.

+func TestColourParseHex(t *testing.T) {
+    c, err := colour.Parse("#FF00FF")
+    require.NoError(t, err)
+    assert.Equal(t, 255, c.R)
+}
+```
+
+Recommendations:
+
+* Use [`stretchr/testify`](https://github.com/stretchr/testify) – already vendor-imported.
+* Follow **table-driven** style for branches.
+* Stub platform quirks behind build tags (`_test_windows.go` etc.) when needed.
+
+### Running Locally
+
+```bash
+cd v3
+go test ./... -cover
+```
+
+Taskfile shortcut:
+
+```
+task test          # same as above + vet + lint
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. Integration & Example Tests
+
+Every folder under `v3/examples/` is a **self-contained app**.  
+Three techniques turn them into tests:
+
+| Technique | File | What it checks |
+|-----------|------|----------------|
+| `go test ./...` inside example | `*_test.go` spins up `wails dev` in headless mode | Build & startup |
+| CLI golden tests | `internal/commands/appimage_test.go` | Generated artefact hashes |
+| Scripted e2e | `tasks/events/generate.go` | Emits Go that launches example, asserts runtime logs |
+
+Run all with:
+
+```
+task integration
+```
+
+> Headless mode uses **Xvfb** on Linux runners; macOS & Windows start minimized.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Race Detection
+
+Data races are fatal in GUI runtimes.
+
+### Dedicated Doc
+
+See `v3/pkg/application/RACE.md` for:
+
+* Known benign races and suppression rationale
+* How to interpret stack-traces crossing Cgo boundaries
+
+### Local Race Suite
+
+```
+go test -race ./...
+```
+
+or
+
+```
+wails3 dev -race
+```
+
+*The latter rebuilds runtime with race flags and launches a demo window.  
+Close the window; any races print after exit.*
+
+CI runs the race suite on **linux/amd64** (fastest) for every PR.
+
+---
+
+## 5. GitHub Actions Workflows
+
+### 5.1 `build-and-test-v3.yml`
+
+Location: `.github/workflows/build-and-test-v3.yml`
+
+Key features:
+
+* **Matrix** over `os: [ubuntu-latest, windows-latest, macos-latest]`
+* Caches Go & npm deps for speed
+* Steps:
+  1. `setup-go` @ 1.23
+  2. `go vet ./...`
+  3. `go test ./... -v -coverprofile=cover.out`
+  4. Build CLI + sample app (`wails3 build -skip-package`)
+  5. Upload coverage to Codecov
+* Conditional **race** job on Ubuntu:
+  ```yaml
+  - name: Race Detector
+    if: matrix.os == 'ubuntu-latest'
+    run: go test -race ./...
+  ```
+
+### 5.2 Static Analysis
+
+* `semgrep.yml` – security/lint scanning (`.github/workflows/semgrep.yml`)
+* `qodana.yaml` – JetBrains Qodana cloud inspection (optional in PR)
+
+### 5.3 Release Pipeline
+
+`runtime.yml` builds and publishes the JS runtime to npm on tag push; out of testing scope but referenced by build matrix.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Local CI Parity
+
+Run the **exact** CI task set via Taskfile:
+
+```
+task ci
+```
+
+It executes:
+
+1. `lint` (golangci-lint, govet)
+2. `test` (unit + race)
+3. `integration`
+4. `build` (for host platform)
+
+---
+
+## 7. Troubleshooting Failing Tests
+
+| Symptom | Likely Cause | Fix |
+|---------|--------------|-----|
+| **Race in `runtime_darwin.go`** | Forgot to lock `mainthread.Call` | Use `mainthread.Sync` helper |
+| **Windows headless hangs** | Console window waiting for input | Pass `-verbose` and ensure no dialogs open |
+| **CI example build fails** | Template changed without bumping example deps | `task update-examples` regenerates lockfiles |
+| **Coverpkg errors** | Integration test importing `main` | Switch to build tags `//go:build integration` |
+
+---
+
+## 8. Adding New Tests
+
+1. **Unit** – create `*_test.go`, run `go test ./...`
+2. **Integration** – update or add example app + test harness
+3. **CI** – commit; the workflow auto-discovers tests  
+   If OS-specific, add skip tags:
+
+```go
+//go:build !windows
+```
+
+---
+
+## 9. Key File Map
+
+| What | Path |
+|------|------|
+| Unit test example | `internal/colour/colour_test.go` |
+| Integration harness | `internal/commands/appimage_test.go` |
+| Race guide | `pkg/application/RACE.md` |
+| Taskfile test targets | `v3/Taskfile.yaml` |
+| CI workflow | `.github/workflows/build-and-test-v3.yml` |
+
+---
+
+Quality isn’t an afterthought in Wails v3.  
+With unit tests, integration suites, race detection, and a cross-platform CI
+matrix you can contribute confidently, knowing your changes run green on every
+OS we support.  
+Happy testing!

+title: Custom Protocol Schemes (Deep Linking)
+description: Guide to implementing custom URL schemes for deep linking in Wails applications across macOS, Windows, and Linux.
+---
+
+import { Aside } from '@astrojs/starlight/components';
+
+# Custom Protocol Schemes (Deep Linking)
+
+Custom protocol schemes (also known as custom URL schemes or deep linking) allow your Wails application to be launched or brought to the foreground by clicking a URL with a scheme you define (e.g., `myapp://some/data`). This is useful for various purposes, such as:
+
+- OAuth authentication flows.
+- Inter-application communication.
+- Launching your app with a specific context or to perform a particular action.
+
+Wails provides a unified way to handle these custom URL invocations across macOS, Windows, and Linux through the `events.Common.ApplicationLaunchedWithUrl` event.
+
+## Defining Your Protocols
+
+First, you need to define the custom protocol schemes your application will use. This is done in your `wails.json` project configuration file. Wails reads this file during the build process (`wails build`) to configure the necessary platform-specific assets like `Info.plist` for macOS, NSIS installer scripts for Windows, and `.desktop` files for Linux.
+
+**Example: `wails.json`**
+
+```json title="wails.json"
+{
+  "name": "My App",
+  "description": "An amazing Wails app!",
+  "info": {
+    "companyName": "My Company",
+    "productName": "My Product",
+    // ... other info fields ...
+    "protocols": [
+      {
+        "scheme": "myapp",
+        "description": "My Application Custom Protocol"
+      },
+      {
+        "scheme": "anotherprotocol",
+        "description": "Another protocol for specific actions"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+  // ... other wails.json fields ...
+}
+```
+
+This `info.protocols` array is what Wails uses to generate the necessary entries in platform-specific files. For example, in template files, you might access this via a path like `{{.Info.Protocols}}`.
+
+<Aside type="note">
+While `application.Options` in your `main.go` is used for runtime application settings, the definition of custom protocols for build-time asset generation (like `Info.plist`, NSIS scripts, `.desktop` files) should be managed in `wails.json`.
+</Aside>
+
+## Handling the Event in Your Application
+
+When your application is launched or activated via a custom URL, Wails emits an `events.Common.ApplicationLaunchedWithUrl` event. You can listen for this event and retrieve the URL that triggered the launch.
+
+```go title="main.go"
+import (
+    "log"
+    "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+    "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/events"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    app := application.New(application.Options{
+        Name:        "My App", // Ensure this matches relevant info from wails.json if needed
+        Description: "An amazing Wails app!",
+        // ... other runtime options ...
+    })
+
+    app.OnApplicationEvent(events.Common.ApplicationLaunchedWithUrl, func(e *application.ApplicationEvent) {
+        launchedURL := e.Context().URL() // Retrieve the URL from the event context
+        log.Printf("Application launched with URL: %s", launchedURL)
+
+        // TODO: Process the URL (e.g., navigate, perform action, etc.)
+        // Example: app.EmitEvent("frontend:ShowURL", launchedURL)
+    })
+
+    // ... rest of your main function ...
+    err := app.Run()
+    if err != nil {
+        log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+<Aside type="note">
+The `e.Context().URL()` method returns the full URL string that was used to launch the application (e.g., `myapp://some/data?param=value`).
+</Aside>
+
+## Platform-Specific Setup and Behavior
+
+While Wails aims for a unified event, the underlying mechanism for custom protocol registration and URL delivery varies by operating system.
+
+### macOS
+
+-   **Setup:** Wails automatically configures your application's `Info.plist` file during the build process. It adds `CFBundleURLTypes` entries based on the `info.protocols` defined in your `wails.json` file.
+    ```xml title="Info.plist (excerpt generated by Wails)"
+    <key>CFBundleURLTypes</key>
+    <array>
+        <dict>
+            <key>CFBundleURLName</key>
+            <string>My Application Custom Protocol</string> <!-- From Protocol.Description in wails.json -->
+            <key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
+            <array>
+                <string>myapp</string> <!-- From Protocol.Scheme in wails.json -->
+            </array>
+        </dict>
+        <!-- ... other protocols ... -->
+    </array>
+    ```
+-   **How it Works:** When a URL like `myapp://` is opened, macOS uses LaunchServices to find the application registered for that scheme and sends it an Apple Event (`kAEGetURL`). Wails intercepts this event and translates it into the common `events.Common.ApplicationLaunchedWithUrl` Wails event, providing the URL via `e.Context().URL()`. 
+
+### Windows
+
+-   **Setup:** Custom protocol schemes on Windows are registered in the Windows Registry. Wails facilitates this through its NSIS installer template.
+    -   When you build your application with the `-nsis` flag, Wails uses the `v3/internal/commands/updatable_build_assets/windows/nsis/wails_tools.nsh.tmpl` file.
+    -   This template contains macros like `CUSTOM_PROTOCOL_ASSOCIATE` and `wails.associateCustomProtocols` which use the `info.protocols` from your `wails.json` (passed as `{{.Info.Protocols}}` to the template) to create the necessary registry entries during installation.
+        ```nsis title="wails_tools.nsh.tmpl (excerpt)"
+        !macro wails.associateCustomProtocols
+            ; Create custom protocols associations
+            {{range .Info.Protocols}}
+              !insertmacro CUSTOM_PROTOCOL_ASSOCIATE "{{.Scheme}}" "{{.Description}}" "$INSTDIR\${PRODUCT_EXECUTABLE},0" "$INSTDIR\${PRODUCT_EXECUTABLE} $\"%1$\""
+            {{end}}
+        !macroend
+        ```
+-   **How it Works:** The installer registers your application executable to be called with the URL as a command-line argument (`%1`). For example, `your_app.exe "myapp://some/data"`.
+    -   The Wails runtime for Windows (`v3/pkg/application/application_windows.go`) has been updated to check `os.Args` upon startup. If it detects an argument that looks like a URL (e.g., `os.Args[1]` contains `"://"`), it now emits the `events.Common.ApplicationLaunchedWithUrl` event with this URL.
+
+<Aside type="important">
+For Windows, custom protocol schemes are typically only registered when your application is installed via an installer (like the one generated by Wails with NSIS). Running the bare executable might not have the schemes registered system-wide.
+</Aside>
+
+### Linux
+
+-   **Setup:** On Linux, custom protocol handling is typically managed via `.desktop` files and the MIME type system.
+    -   Wails uses a `.desktop` file template (e.g., `v3/internal/commands/updatable_build_assets/linux/desktop.tmpl`) which is populated during the build using information from `wails.json`.
+        ```desktop title="desktop.tmpl (excerpt)"
+        [Desktop Entry]
+        Name={{.ProductName}}
+        Exec=/usr/local/bin/{{.BinaryName}} %u
+        MimeType={{range $index, $protocol := .Info.Protocols}}x-scheme-handler/{{$protocol.Scheme}};{{end}}
+        ```
+        The `Exec` line uses `%u` which gets replaced by the URL. The `MimeType` line registers your application as a handler for `x-scheme-handler/your-scheme` for each protocol defined in `wails.json` (via `{{.Info.Protocols}}`).
+    -   When packaging for Linux (e.g., using `nfpm`), this `.desktop` file is installed to `/usr/share/applications/`.
+    -   A `postinstall.sh` script (e.g., `v3/internal/commands/build_assets/linux/nfpm/scripts/postinstall.sh`) is used to update the system's application and MIME databases:
+        ```sh title="postinstall.sh (excerpt)"
+        #!/bin/sh
+        update-desktop-database -q /usr/share/applications
+        update-mime-database -n /usr/share/mime
+        ```
+-   **How it Works:** When a URL like `myapp://` is opened, the desktop environment uses the MIME database to find the associated `.desktop` file and executes the command specified in its `Exec` line, substituting `%u` with the URL. Your application receives this URL as a command-line argument.
+    -   The Wails runtime for Linux (`v3/pkg/application/application_linux.go`) checks `os.Args` on startup. If it detects an argument that looks like a URL, it emits the `events.Common.ApplicationLaunchedWithUrl` event.
+
+## Testing Your Custom Protocols
+
+-   **macOS:** Open Terminal and type `open "your-scheme://your/data"`.
+-   **Linux:** Open a terminal and type `xdg-open "your-scheme://your/data"` (requires `xdg-utils` to be installed and the app to be properly packaged and registered).
+-   **Windows:** After installation via NSIS:
+    -   You can try running `start your-scheme://your/data` from Command Prompt or PowerShell.
+    -   Create a simple HTML file with a link `<a href="your-scheme://your/data">Test Link</a>` and open it in a browser.
+
+<Aside type="tip">
+Always ensure your application is properly built and installed (especially for Windows and Linux) for the system to recognize the custom protocol schemes.
+</Aside>
+
+By following this guide, you can effectively use custom protocol schemes to enhance your Wails application's interactivity and integration with other applications or web services.

+title: Events Guide
+description: A practical guide to using events in Wails v3 for application communication and lifecycle management
+---
+
+**NOTE: This guide is a work in progress**
+
+# Events Guide
+
+Events are the heartbeat of communication in Wails applications. They allow different parts of your application to talk to each other without being tightly coupled. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about using events effectively in your Wails application.
+
+## Understanding Wails Events
+
+Think of events as messages that get broadcast throughout your application. Any part of your application can listen for these messages and react accordingly. This is particularly useful for:
+
+- **Responding to window changes**: Know when your window is minimized, maximized, or moved
+- **Handling system events**: React to theme changes or power events
+- **Custom application logic**: Create your own events for features like data updates or user actions
+- **Cross-component communication**: Let different parts of your app communicate without direct dependencies
+
+## Event Naming Convention
+
+All Wails events follow a namespace pattern to clearly indicate their origin:
+
+- `common:` - Cross-platform events that work on Windows, macOS, and Linux
+- `windows:` - Windows-specific events
+- `mac:` - macOS-specific events  
+- `linux:` - Linux-specific events
+
+For example:
+- `common:WindowFocus` - Window gained focus (works everywhere)
+- `windows:APMSuspend` - System is suspending (Windows only)
+- `mac:ApplicationDidBecomeActive` - App became active (macOS only)
+
+## Getting Started with Events
+
+### Listening to Events (Frontend)
+
+The most common use case is listening for events in your frontend code:
+
+```javascript
+import { Events } from '@wailsio/runtime';
+
+// Listen for when the window gains focus
+Events.On('common:WindowFocus', () => {
+    console.log('Window is now focused!');
+    // Maybe refresh some data or resume animations
+});
+
+// Listen for theme changes
+Events.On('common:ThemeChanged', (event) => {
+    console.log('Theme changed:', event.data);
+    // Update your app's theme accordingly
+});
+
+// Listen for custom events from your Go backend
+Events.On('my-app:data-updated', (event) => {
+    console.log('Data updated:', event.data);
+    // Update your UI with the new data
+});
+```
+
+### Emitting Events (Backend)
+
+From your Go code, you can emit events that your frontend can listen to:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/events"
+    "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+)
+
+func (a *App) UpdateData() {
+    // Do some data processing...
+    
+    // Notify the frontend
+    a.app.EmitEvent("my-app:data-updated", map[string]interface{}{
+        "timestamp": time.Now(),
+        "count": 42,
+    })
+}
+```
+
+### Removing Event Listeners
+
+Always clean up your event listeners when they're no longer needed:
+
+```javascript
+// Store the handler reference
+const focusHandler = () => {
+    console.log('Window focused');
+};
+
+// Add the listener
+Events.On('common:WindowFocus', focusHandler);
+
+// Later, remove it when no longer needed
+Events.Off('common:WindowFocus', focusHandler);
+
+// Or remove all listeners for an event
+Events.Off('common:WindowFocus');
+```
+
+## Common Use Cases
+
+### 1. Pause/Resume on Window Focus
+
+Many applications need to pause certain activities when the window loses focus:
+
+```javascript
+let animationRunning = true;
+
+Events.On('common:WindowLostFocus', () => {
+    animationRunning = false;
+    pauseBackgroundTasks();
+});
+
+Events.On('common:WindowFocus', () => {
+    animationRunning = true;
+    resumeBackgroundTasks();
+});
+```
+
+### 2. Responding to Theme Changes
+
+Keep your app in sync with the system theme:
+
+```javascript
+Events.On('common:ThemeChanged', (event) => {
+    const isDarkMode = event.data.isDark;
+    
+    if (isDarkMode) {
+        document.body.classList.add('dark-theme');
+        document.body.classList.remove('light-theme');
+    } else {
+        document.body.classList.add('light-theme');
+        document.body.classList.remove('dark-theme');
+    }
+});
+```
+
+### 3. Handling File Drops
+
+Make your app accept dragged files:
+
+```javascript
+Events.On('common:WindowFilesDropped', (event) => {
+    const files = event.data.files;
+    
+    files.forEach(file => {
+        console.log('File dropped:', file);
+        // Process the dropped files
+        handleFileUpload(file);
+    });
+});
+```
+
+### 4. Window Lifecycle Management
+
+Respond to window state changes:
+
+```javascript
+Events.On('common:WindowClosing', () => {
+    // Save user data before closing
+    saveApplicationState();
+    
+    // You could also prevent closing by returning false
+    // from a registered window close handler
+});
+
+Events.On('common:WindowMaximise', () => {
+    // Adjust UI for maximized view
+    adjustLayoutForMaximized();
+});
+
+Events.On('common:WindowRestore', () => {
+    // Return UI to normal state
+    adjustLayoutForNormal();
+});
+```
+
+### 5. Platform-Specific Features
+
+Handle platform-specific events when needed:
+
+```javascript
+// Windows-specific power management
+Events.On('windows:APMSuspend', () => {
+    console.log('System is going to sleep');
+    saveState();
+});
+
+Events.On('windows:APMResumeSuspend', () => {
+    console.log('System woke up');
+    refreshData();
+});
+
+// macOS-specific app lifecycle
+Events.On('mac:ApplicationWillTerminate', () => {
+    console.log('App is about to quit');
+    performCleanup();
+});
+```
+
+## Creating Custom Events
+
+You can create your own events for application-specific needs:
+
+### Backend (Go)
+
+```go
+// Emit a custom event when data changes
+func (a *App) ProcessUserData(userData UserData) error {
+    // Process the data...
+    
+    // Notify all listeners
+    a.app.EmitEvent("user:data-processed", map[string]interface{}{
+        "userId": userData.ID,
+        "status": "completed",
+        "timestamp": time.Now(),
+    })
+    
+    return nil
+}
+
+// Emit periodic updates
+func (a *App) StartMonitoring() {
+    ticker := time.NewTicker(5 * time.Second)
+    go func() {
+        for range ticker.C {
+            stats := a.collectStats()
+            a.app.EmitEvent("monitor:stats-updated", stats)
+        }
+    }()
+}
+```
+
+### Frontend (JavaScript)
+
+```javascript
+// Listen for your custom events
+Events.On('user:data-processed', (event) => {
+    const { userId, status, timestamp } = event.data;
+    
+    showNotification(`User ${userId} processing ${status}`);
+    updateUIWithNewData();
+});
+
+Events.On('monitor:stats-updated', (event) => {
+    updateDashboard(event.data);
+});
+```
+
+## Event Reference
+
+### Common Events (Cross-platform)
+
+These events work on all platforms:
+
+| Event | Description | When to Use |
+|-------|-------------|-------------|
+| `common:ApplicationStarted` | Application has fully started | Initialize your app, load saved state |
+| `common:WindowRuntimeReady` | Wails runtime is ready | Start making Wails API calls |
+| `common:ThemeChanged` | System theme changed | Update app appearance |
+| `common:WindowFocus` | Window gained focus | Resume activities, refresh data |
+| `common:WindowLostFocus` | Window lost focus | Pause activities, save state |
+| `common:WindowMinimise` | Window was minimized | Pause rendering, reduce resource usage |
+| `common:WindowMaximise` | Window was maximized | Adjust layout for full screen |
+| `common:WindowRestore` | Window restored from min/max | Return to normal layout |
+| `common:WindowClosing` | Window is about to close | Save data, cleanup resources |

+| `common:WindowDidResize` | Window was resized | Adjust layout, rerender charts |
+| `common:WindowDidMove` | Window was moved | Update position-dependent features |
+
+### Platform-Specific Events
+
+#### Windows Events
+
+Key events for Windows applications:
+
+| Event | Description | Use Case |
+|-------|-------------|----------|
+| `windows:SystemThemeChanged` | Windows theme changed | Update app colors |
+| `windows:APMSuspend` | System suspending | Save state, pause operations |
+| `windows:APMResumeSuspend` | System resumed | Restore state, refresh data |
+| `windows:APMPowerStatusChange` | Power status changed | Adjust performance settings |
+
+#### macOS Events
+
+Important macOS application events:
+
+| Event | Description | Use Case |
+|-------|-------------|----------|
+| `mac:ApplicationDidBecomeActive` | App became active | Resume operations |
+| `mac:ApplicationDidResignActive` | App became inactive | Pause operations |
+| `mac:ApplicationWillTerminate` | App will quit | Final cleanup |
+| `mac:WindowDidEnterFullScreen` | Entered fullscreen | Adjust UI for fullscreen |
+| `mac:WindowDidExitFullScreen` | Exited fullscreen | Restore normal UI |
+
+#### Linux Events

+| `linux:SystemThemeChanged` | Desktop theme changed | Update app theme |
+| `linux:WindowFocusIn` | Window gained focus | Resume activities |
+| `linux:WindowFocusOut` | Window lost focus | Pause activities |
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. Use Event Namespaces
+
+When creating custom events, use namespaces to avoid conflicts:
+
+```javascript
+// Good - namespaced events
+Events.Emit('myapp:user:login');
+Events.Emit('myapp:data:updated');
+Events.Emit('myapp:network:connected');
+
+// Avoid - generic names that might conflict
+Events.Emit('login');
+Events.Emit('update');
+```
+
+### 2. Clean Up Listeners
+
+Always remove event listeners when components unmount:
+
+```javascript
+// React example
+useEffect(() => {
+    const handler = (event) => {
+        // Handle event
+    };
+    
+    Events.On('common:WindowResize', handler);
+    
+    // Cleanup
+    return () => {
+        Events.Off('common:WindowResize', handler);
+    };
+}, []);
+```
+
+### 3. Handle Platform Differences
+
+Check platform availability when using platform-specific events:
+
+```javascript
+import { Platform } from '@wailsio/runtime';
+
+if (Platform.isWindows) {
+    Events.On('windows:APMSuspend', handleSuspend);
+} else if (Platform.isMac) {
+    Events.On('mac:ApplicationWillTerminate', handleTerminate);
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Don't Overuse Events
+
+While events are powerful, don't use them for everything:
+
+- ✅ Use events for: System notifications, lifecycle changes, broadcast updates
+- ❌ Avoid events for: Direct function returns, single component updates, synchronous operations
+
+## Debugging Events
+
+To debug event issues:
+
+```javascript
+// Log all events (development only)
+if (isDevelopment) {
+    const originalOn = Events.On;
+    Events.On = function(eventName, handler) {
+        console.log(`[Event Registered] ${eventName}`);
+        return originalOn.call(this, eventName, function(event) {
+            console.log(`[Event Fired] ${eventName}`, event);
+            return handler(event);
+        });
+    };
+}
+```
+
+## Source of Truth
+
+The complete list of available events can be found in the Wails source code:
+- Frontend events: [`v3/internal/runtime/desktop/@wailsio/runtime/src/event_types.ts`](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/blob/main/v3/internal/runtime/desktop/@wailsio/runtime/src/event_types.ts)
+- Backend events: [`v3/pkg/events/events.go`](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/blob/main/v3/pkg/events/events.go)
+
+Always refer to these files for the most up-to-date event names and availability.
+
+## Summary
+
+Events in Wails provide a powerful, decoupled way to handle communication in your application. By following the patterns and practices in this guide, you can build responsive, platform-aware applications that react smoothly to system changes and user interactions.
+
+Remember: start with common events for cross-platform compatibility, add platform-specific events when needed, and always clean up your event listeners to prevent memory leaks.

+title: Using Gin for Routing
+description: A comprehensive guide to integrating Gin web framework with Wails v3 applications
+---
+
+This guide demonstrates how to integrate the [Gin web framework](https://github.com/gin-gonic/gin) with Wails v3. Gin is a high-performance HTTP web framework written in Go that makes it easy to build web applications and APIs.
+
+## Introduction
+
+Wails v3 provides a flexible asset system that allows you to use any HTTP handler, including popular web frameworks like Gin. This integration enables you to:
+
+- Serve web content using Gin's powerful routing and middleware capabilities
+- Create RESTful APIs that can be accessed from your Wails application
+- Leverage Gin's extensive feature set whilst maintaining the benefits of Wails
+
+## Setting Up Gin with Wails
+
+To integrate Gin with Wails, you need to create a Gin router and configure it as the asset handler in your Wails application. Here's a step-by-step guide:
+
+### 1. Install Dependencies
+
+First, ensure you have the Gin package installed:
+
+```bash
+go get -u github.com/gin-gonic/gin
+```
+
+### 2. Create a Middleware for Gin
+
+Create a middleware function that will handle the integration between Wails and Gin:
+
+```go
+// GinMiddleware creates a middleware that passes requests to Gin if they're not handled by Wails
+func GinMiddleware(ginEngine *gin.Engine) application.Middleware {
+	return func(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
+		return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+			// Let Wails handle the `/wails` route
+			if strings.HasPrefix(r.URL.Path, "/wails") {
+				next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
+				return
+			}
+			// Let Gin handle everything else
+			ginEngine.ServeHTTP(w, r)
+		})
+	}
+}
+```
+
+This middleware passes all HTTP requests to the Gin router.
+
+### 3. Configure Your Gin Router
+
+Set up your Gin router with routes, middlewares, and handlers:
+
+```go
+// Create a new Gin router
+ginEngine := gin.New() // Using New() instead of Default() to add custom middleware
+
+// Add middlewares
+ginEngine.Use(gin.Recovery())
+ginEngine.Use(LoggingMiddleware()) // Your custom middleware
+
+// Define routes
+ginEngine.GET("/", func(c *gin.Context) {
+    // Serve your main page
+})
+
+ginEngine.GET("/api/hello", func(c *gin.Context) {
+    c.JSON(http.StatusOK, gin.H{
+        "message": "Hello from Gin API!",
+        "time":    time.Now().Format(time.RFC3339),
+    })
+})
+```
+
+### 4. Integrate with Wails Application
+
+Configure your Wails application to use the Gin router as its asset handler:
+
+```go
+// Create a new Wails application
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Name:        "Gin Example",
+    Description: "A demo of using Gin with Wails",
+    Mac: application.MacOptions{
+        ApplicationShouldTerminateAfterLastWindowClosed: true,
+    },
+    Assets: application.AssetOptions{
+        Handler:    ginEngine,
+        Middleware: GinMiddleware(ginEngine),
+    },
+})
+
+// Create window
+app.NewWebviewWindowWithOptions(application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+    Title:    "Wails + Gin Example",
+    Width:    900,
+    Height:   700,
+    Centered: true,
+    URL:      "/", // This will load the route handled by Gin
+})
+```
+
+## Serving Static Content
+
+There are several ways to serve static content with Gin in a Wails application:
+
+### Option 1: Using Go's embed Package
+
+The recommended approach is to use Go's `embed` package to embed static files into your binary:
+
+```go
+//go:embed static
+var staticFiles embed.FS
+
+// In your main function:
+ginEngine.StaticFS("/static", http.FS(staticFiles))
+
+// Serve index.html
+ginEngine.GET("/", func(c *gin.Context) {
+    file, err := staticFiles.ReadFile("static/index.html")
+    if err != nil {
+        c.String(http.StatusInternalServerError, "Error reading index.html")
+        return
+    }
+    c.Data(http.StatusOK, "text/html; charset=utf-8", file)
+})
+```
+
+### Option 2: Serving from Disk
+
+For development purposes, you might prefer to serve files directly from disk:
+
+```go
+// Serve static files from the "static" directory
+ginEngine.Static("/static", "./static")
+
+// Serve index.html
+ginEngine.GET("/", func(c *gin.Context) {
+    c.File("./static/index.html")
+})
+```
+
+## Custom Middleware
+
+Gin allows you to create custom middleware for various purposes. Here's an example of a logging middleware:
+
+```go
+// LoggingMiddleware is a Gin middleware that logs request details
+func LoggingMiddleware() gin.HandlerFunc {
+    return func(c *gin.Context) {
+        // Start timer
+        startTime := time.Now()
+
+        // Process request
+        c.Next()
+
+        // Calculate latency
+        latency := time.Since(startTime)
+
+        // Log request details
+        log.Printf("[GIN] %s | %s | %s | %d | %s",
+            c.Request.Method,
+            c.Request.URL.Path,
+            c.ClientIP(),
+            c.Writer.Status(),
+            latency,
+        )
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Handling API Requests
+
+Gin makes it easy to create RESTful APIs. Here's how to define API endpoints:
+
+```go
+// GET endpoint
+ginEngine.GET("/api/users", func(c *gin.Context) {
+    c.JSON(http.StatusOK, users)
+})
+
+// POST endpoint with JSON binding
+ginEngine.POST("/api/users", func(c *gin.Context) {
+    var newUser User
+    if err := c.ShouldBindJSON(&newUser); err != nil {
+        c.JSON(http.StatusBadRequest, gin.H{"error": err.Error()})
+        return
+    }
+    // Process the new user...
+    c.JSON(http.StatusCreated, newUser)
+})
+
+// Path parameters
+ginEngine.GET("/api/users/:id", func(c *gin.Context) {
+    id := c.Param("id")
+    // Find user by ID...
+    c.JSON(http.StatusOK, user)
+})
+
+// Query parameters
+ginEngine.GET("/api/search", func(c *gin.Context) {
+    query := c.DefaultQuery("q", "")
+    limit := c.DefaultQuery("limit", "10")
+    // Perform search...
+    c.JSON(http.StatusOK, results)
+})
+```
+
+## Event Communication
+
+One of the powerful features of Wails is its event system, which allows for communication between the frontend and backend. When using Gin as a service, you can still leverage this event system by serving the Wails runtime.js file to your frontend.
+
+### Serving the Wails Runtime
+
+To enable event communication, you need to serve the Wails runtime.js file at the `/wails/runtime.js` path. Here's how to implement this in your Gin service:
+
+```go
+import (
+    "io"
+    "net/http"
+    
+    "github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
+    "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+    "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/runtime"
+)
+
+// GinService implements a Wails service that uses Gin for HTTP handling
+type GinService struct {
+    ginEngine *gin.Engine
+    app       *application.App
+    // Other fields...
+}
+
+// ServeHTTP implements the http.Handler interface
+func (s *GinService) ServeHTTP(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    // Special handling for Wails runtime.js
+    if r.URL.Path == "/wails/runtime.js" {
+        s.serveWailsRuntime(w, r)
+        return
+    }
+
+    // All other requests go to the Gin router
+    s.ginEngine.ServeHTTP(w, r)
+}
+
+// serveWailsRuntime serves the Wails runtime.js file
+func (s *GinService) serveWailsRuntime(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    // Open the runtime.js file from the public runtime package
+    runtimeFile, err := runtime.Assets.Open(runtime.RuntimeJSPath)
+    if err != nil {
+        http.Error(w, "Failed to access runtime assets", http.StatusInternalServerError)
+        return
+    }
+    defer runtimeFile.Close()
+
+    // Set the content type
+    w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "application/javascript")
+    
+    // Copy the file to the response
+    _, err = io.Copy(w, runtimeFile)
+    if err != nil {
+        http.Error(w, "Failed to serve runtime.js", http.StatusInternalServerError)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Handling Events
+
+You'll also need to add an endpoint to handle events from the frontend. This endpoint will bridge the gap between the HTTP requests and the Wails event system:
+
+```go
+// In your setupRoutes method
+func (s *GinService) setupRoutes() {
+    // Event handling endpoint
+    s.ginEngine.POST("/events/emit", func(c *gin.Context) {
+        var eventData struct {
+            Name string      `json:"name" binding:"required"`
+            Data interface{} `json:"data"`
+        }
+
+        if err := c.ShouldBindJSON(&eventData); err != nil {
+            c.JSON(http.StatusBadRequest, gin.H{"error": err.Error()})
+            return
+        }
+
+        // Process the event using the Wails event system
+        s.app.EmitEvent(eventData.Name, eventData.Data)
+
+        c.JSON(http.StatusOK, gin.H{
+            "success": true,
+            "message": "Event processed successfully",
+        })
+    })
+    
+    // Other routes...
+}
+```
+
+### Using Events in the Frontend
+
+In your frontend HTML, include the Wails runtime.js script and use the event API:
+
+```html
+<!DOCTYPE html>
+<html>
+<head>
+    <script src="/wails/runtime.js"></script>
+</head>
+<body>
+    <button id="triggerEvent">Trigger Event</button>
+    <pre id="eventResponse"></pre>
+    
+    <script>
+        // Emit an event to the backend
+        document.getElementById('triggerEvent').addEventListener('click', () => {
+            ce.Events.Emit("my-event", { 
+                message: "Hello from the frontend!",
+                timestamp: new Date().toISOString() 
+            });
+        });
+        
+        // Listen for events from the backend
+        ce.Events.On("response-event", (data) => {
+            document.getElementById('eventResponse').textContent = 
+                JSON.stringify(data, null, 2);
+        });
+        
+        // For the runtime.js stub implementation, add this polyfill
+        if (window.ce && !window.ce._isNative) {
+            const originalFetch = window.fetch;
+            window.fetch = async function(url, options) {
+                if (typeof url === 'string' && url.includes('/wails/events/emit')) {
+                    const req = new Request(url, options);
+                    const data = await req.json();
+                    // Forward the event to the backend through a regular API call
+                    await fetch('/api/events/emit', {
+                        method: 'POST',
+                        headers: {
+                            'Content-Type': 'application/json'
+                        },
+                        body: JSON.stringify(data)
+                    });
+                    return new Response(JSON.stringify({ success: true }), {
+                        headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }
+                    });
+                }
+                return originalFetch.apply(this, arguments);
+            };
+        }
+    </script>
+</body>
+</html>
+```
+
+This approach allows you to use the Wails event system seamlessly with your Gin service, providing a consistent experience across your application.
+
+## Interacting with Wails
+
+Your Gin-served web content can interact with Wails features like events and bindings. To enable this interaction, you
+must use the JavaScript API package `@wailsio/runtime`.
+
+### Handling Wails Events in Go
+
+```go
+// Register event handler
+app.OnEvent("my-event", func(event *application.CustomEvent) {
+    log.Printf("Received event from frontend: %v", event.Data)
+    // Process the event...
+})
+```
+
+### Emitting Events from JavaScript
+
+```html
+    <script>
+        document.getElementById('callApi').addEventListener('click', async () => {
+            try {
+                const response = await fetch('/api/hello');
+                const data = await response.json();
+                document.getElementById('apiResult').textContent = JSON.stringify(data, null, 2);
+            } catch (error) {
+                console.error('Error calling API:', error);
+                document.getElementById('apiResult').textContent = 'Error: ' + error.message;
+            }
+        });
+    </script>
+```
+
+## Advanced Configuration
+
+### Customising Gin's Mode
+
+Gin has three modes: debug, release, and test. For production applications, you should use release mode:
+
+```go
+// Set Gin to release mode
+gin.SetMode(gin.ReleaseMode)
+
+// Create a new Gin router
+ginEngine := gin.New()
+```
+
+You can use Go's build tags to set the mode based on the build environment:
+
+```go[main_prod.go]
+// +build production
+
+var ginMode = gin.ReleaseMode
+```
+
+```go[main_dev.go]
+// +build !production
+
+var ginMode = gin.DebugMode
+```
+
+```go [main.go]
+// In your main function:
+gin.SetMode(ginMode)
+```
+
+### Handling WebSockets
+
+You can integrate WebSockets with Gin using libraries like Gorilla WebSocket:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/gorilla/websocket"
+
+var upgrader = websocket.Upgrader{
+    ReadBufferSize:  1024,
+    WriteBufferSize: 1024,
+    CheckOrigin: func(r *http.Request) bool {
+        return true // Allow all connections
+    },
+}
+
+// In your route handler:
+ginEngine.GET("/ws", func(c *gin.Context) {
+    conn, err := upgrader.Upgrade(c.Writer, c.Request, nil)
+    if err != nil {
+        log.Println(err)
+        return
+    }
+    defer conn.Close()
+    
+    // Handle WebSocket connection...
+})
+```
+
+## Complete Example
+
+Here's a complete example of integrating Gin with Wails:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+	"embed"
+	"log"
+	"net/http"
+	"time"
+
+	"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
+	"github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+)
+
+//go:embed static

+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Use Go's embed Package:** Embed static files into your binary for better distribution.
+- **Separate Concerns:** Keep your API logic separate from your UI logic.
+- **Error Handling:** Implement proper error handling in both Gin routes and frontend code.
+- **Security:** Be mindful of security considerations, especially when handling user input.
+- **Performance:** Use Gin's release mode in production for better performance.
+- **Testing:** Write tests for your Gin routes using Gin's testing utilities.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+Integrating Gin with Wails provides a powerful combination for building desktop applications with web technologies. Gin's performance and feature set complement Wails' desktop integration capabilities, allowing you to create sophisticated applications that leverage the best of both worlds.

+title: Using Gin for Services
+description: A guide to integrating the Gin web framework with Wails v3 Services
+---
+
+# Using Gin for Services
+
+The Gin web framework is a popular choice for building HTTP services in Go. With Wails v3, you can easily integrate Gin-based services into your application, providing a powerful way to handle HTTP requests, implement RESTful APIs, and serve web content.
+
+This guide will walk you through creating a Gin-based service that can be mounted at a specific route in your Wails application. We'll build a complete example that demonstrates how to:
+
+1. Create a Gin-based service
+2. Implement the Wails Service interface
+3. Set up routes and middleware
+4. Integrate with the Wails event system
+5. Interact with the service from the frontend
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before you begin, make sure you have:
+
+- Wails v3 installed
+- Basic knowledge of Go and the Gin framework
+- Familiarity with HTTP concepts and RESTful APIs
+
+You'll need to add the Gin framework to your project:
+
+```bash
+go get github.com/gin-gonic/gin
+```
+
+## Creating a Gin-Based Service
+
+Let's start by creating a Gin service that implements the Wails Service interface. Our service will manage a collection of users and provide API endpoints for retrieving and creating user records.
+
+### 1. Define Your Data Models
+
+First, define the data structures your service will work with:
+
+```go
+package services
+
+import (
+	"context"
+	"net/http"
+	"strconv"
+	"sync"
+	"time"
+
+	"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
+	"github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+)
+
+// User represents a user in the system
+type User struct {
+	ID        int       `json:"id"`
+	Name      string    `json:"name"`
+	Email     string    `json:"email"`
+	CreatedAt time.Time `json:"createdAt"`
+}
+
+// EventData represents data sent in events
+type EventData struct {
+	Message   string `json:"message"`
+	Timestamp string `json:"timestamp"`
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Create Your Service Structure
+
+Next, define the service structure that will hold your Gin router and any state your service needs to maintain:
+
+```go
+// GinService implements a Wails service that uses Gin for HTTP handling
+type GinService struct {
+	ginEngine *gin.Engine
+	users     []User
+	nextID    int
+	mu        sync.RWMutex
+	app       *application.App
+}
+
+// NewGinService creates a new GinService instance
+func NewGinService() *GinService {
+	// Create a new Gin router
+	ginEngine := gin.New()
+
+	// Add middlewares
+	ginEngine.Use(gin.Recovery())
+	ginEngine.Use(LoggingMiddleware())
+
+	service := &GinService{
+		ginEngine: ginEngine,
+		users: []User{
+			{ID: 1, Name: "Alice", Email: "alice@example.com", CreatedAt: time.Now().Add(-72 * time.Hour)},
+			{ID: 2, Name: "Bob", Email: "bob@example.com", CreatedAt: time.Now().Add(-48 * time.Hour)},
+			{ID: 3, Name: "Charlie", Email: "charlie@example.com", CreatedAt: time.Now().Add(-24 * time.Hour)},
+		},
+		nextID: 4,
+	}
+
+	// Define routes
+	service.setupRoutes()
+
+	return service
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Implement the Service Interface
+
+Implement the required methods for the Wails Service interface:
+
+```go
+// ServiceName returns the name of the service
+func (s *GinService) ServiceName() string {
+	return "Gin API Service"
+}
+
+// ServiceStartup is called when the service starts
+func (s *GinService) ServiceStartup(ctx context.Context, options application.ServiceOptions) error {
+	// Store the application instance for later use
+	s.app = application.Get()
+
+	// Register an event handler that can be triggered from the frontend
+	s.app.OnEvent("gin-api-event", func(event *application.CustomEvent) {
+		// Log the event data
+		s.app.Logger.Info("Received event from frontend", "data", event.Data)
+
+		// Emit an event back to the frontend
+		s.app.EmitEvent("gin-api-response", map[string]interface{}{
+			"message": "Response from Gin API Service",
+			"time":    time.Now().Format(time.RFC3339),
+		})
+	})
+
+	return nil
+}
+
+// ServiceShutdown is called when the service shuts down
+func (s *GinService) ServiceShutdown(ctx context.Context) error {
+	// Clean up resources if needed
+	return nil
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Implement the http.Handler Interface
+
+To make your service mountable at a specific route, implement the `http.Handler` interface. This single method, `ServeHTTP`, is the gateway for all HTTP requests to your service. It delegates the request handling to the Gin router, allowing you to use all of Gin's powerful features for routing and middleware.
+
+```go
+// ServeHTTP implements the http.Handler interface
+func (s *GinService) ServeHTTP(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+	// All requests go to the Gin router
+	s.ginEngine.ServeHTTP(w, r)
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Set Up Your Routes
+
+Define your API routes in a separate method for better organisation. This approach keeps your code clean and makes it easier to understand the structure of your API. The Gin router provides a fluent API for defining routes, including support for route groups, which help organise related endpoints.
+
+```go
+// setupRoutes configures the API routes
+func (s *GinService) setupRoutes() {
+	// Basic info endpoint
+	s.ginEngine.GET("/info", func(c *gin.Context) {
+		c.JSON(http.StatusOK, gin.H{
+			"service": "Gin API Service",
+			"version": "1.0.0",
+			"time":    time.Now().Format(time.RFC3339),
+		})
+	})
+
+	// Users group
+	users := s.ginEngine.Group("/users")
+	{
+		// Get all users
+		users.GET("", func(c *gin.Context) {
+			s.mu.RLock()
+			defer s.mu.RUnlock()
+			c.JSON(http.StatusOK, s.users)
+		})
+
+		// Get user by ID
+		users.GET("/:id", func(c *gin.Context) {
+			id, err := strconv.Atoi(c.Param("id"))
+			if err != nil {
+				c.JSON(http.StatusBadRequest, gin.H{"error": "Invalid user ID"})
+				return
+			}
+
+			s.mu.RLock()
+			defer s.mu.RUnlock()
+
+			for _, user := range s.users {
+				if user.ID == id {
+					c.JSON(http.StatusOK, user)
+					return
+				}
+			}
+
+			c.JSON(http.StatusNotFound, gin.H{"error": "User not found"})
+		})
+
+		// Create a new user
+		users.POST("", func(c *gin.Context) {
+			var newUser User
+			if err := c.ShouldBindJSON(&newUser); err != nil {
+				c.JSON(http.StatusBadRequest, gin.H{"error": err.Error()})
+				return
+			}
+
+			s.mu.Lock()
+			defer s.mu.Unlock()
+
+			// Set the ID and creation time
+			newUser.ID = s.nextID
+			newUser.CreatedAt = time.Now()
+			s.nextID++
+
+			// Add to the users slice
+			s.users = append(s.users, newUser)
+
+			c.JSON(http.StatusCreated, newUser)
+
+			// Emit an event to notify about the new user
+			s.app.EmitEvent("user-created", newUser)
+		})
+
+		// Delete a user
+		users.DELETE("/:id", func(c *gin.Context) {
+			id, err := strconv.Atoi(c.Param("id"))
+			if err != nil {
+				c.JSON(http.StatusBadRequest, gin.H{"error": "Invalid user ID"})
+				return
+			}
+
+			s.mu.Lock()
+			defer s.mu.Unlock()
+
+			for i, user := range s.users {
+				if user.ID == id {
+					// Remove the user from the slice
+					s.users = append(s.users[:i], s.users[i+1:]...)
+					c.JSON(http.StatusOK, gin.H{"message": "User deleted"})
+					return
+				}
+			}
+
+			c.JSON(http.StatusNotFound, gin.H{"error": "User not found"})
+		})
+	}
+}
+```
+
+### 5. Create Custom Middleware
+
+You can create custom Gin middleware to enhance your service. Middleware functions in Gin are executed in the order they are added to the router and can perform tasks such as logging, authentication, and error handling. This example shows a simple logging middleware that records request details.
+
+```go
+// LoggingMiddleware is a Gin middleware that logs request details
+func LoggingMiddleware() gin.HandlerFunc {
+	return func(c *gin.Context) {
+		// Start timer
+		start := time.Now()
+
+		// Process request
+		c.Next()
+
+		// Calculate latency
+		latency := time.Since(start)
+
+		// Log request details
+		log.Printf("[GIN] %s %s %d %s", c.Request.Method, c.Request.URL.Path, c.Writer.Status(), latency)
+	}
+}
+```
+
+## Registering Your Service
+
+To use your Gin-based service in a Wails application, you need to register it with the application and specify the route where it should be mounted. This is done when creating the Wails application instance. The route you specify becomes the base path for all endpoints defined in your Gin router.
+
+```go
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Name:        "Gin Service Demo",
+    Description: "A demo of using Gin in Wails services",
+    Mac: application.MacOptions{
+        ApplicationShouldTerminateAfterLastWindowClosed: true,
+    },
+    LogLevel: slog.LevelDebug,
+    Services: []application.Service{
+        application.NewServiceWithOptions(services.NewGinService(), application.ServiceOptions{
+            Route: "/api",
+        }),
+    },
+    Assets: application.AssetOptions{
+        Handler: application.BundledAssetFileServer(assets),
+    },
+})
+```
+
+In this example, the Gin service is mounted at the `/api` route. This means that if your Gin router has an endpoint defined as `/info`, it will be accessible at `/api/info` in your application. This approach allows you to organise your API endpoints logically and avoid conflicts with other parts of your application.
+
+## Integrating with the Wails Event System
+
+One of the powerful features of using Gin with Wails Services is the ability to seamlessly integrate with the Wails event system. This allows for real-time communication between your backend service and the frontend.
+
+In your service's `ServiceStartup` method, you can register event handlers to process events from the frontend:
+
+```go
+s.app.OnEvent("gin-api-event", func(event *application.CustomEvent) {
+    // Log the event data
+    s.app.Logger.Info("Received event from frontend", "data", event.Data)
+
+    // Emit an event back to the frontend
+    s.app.EmitEvent("gin-api-response", map[string]interface{}{
+        "message": "Response from Gin API Service",
+        "time":    time.Now().Format(time.RFC3339),
+    })
+})
+```
+
+You can also emit events to the frontend from your Gin routes or other parts of your service:
+
+```go
+// After creating a new user
+s.app.EmitEvent("user-created", newUser)
+```
+
+## Frontend Integration
+
+To interact with your Gin service from the frontend, you'll need to import the Wails runtime, make HTTP requests to your API endpoints, and use the Wails event system for real-time communication.
+
+For production use, it's recommended to use the `@wailsio/runtime` package instead of directly importing `/wails/runtime.js`. This ensures type safety, better IDE support, version management through npm, and compatibility with modern JavaScript tooling.
+
+Install the package:
+```bash
+npm install @wailsio/runtime
+```
+
+Then use it in your code:
+```javascript
+import * as wails from '@wailsio/runtime';
+
+// Event emission
+wails.Events.Emit('gin-api-event',  eventData);
+```
+
+Here's an example of how to set up frontend integration:

+## Closing Thoughts
+
+Integrating the Gin web framework with Wails v3 Services provides a powerful and flexible approach to building modular, maintainable web applications. By leveraging Gin's routing and middleware capabilities alongside the Wails event system, you can create rich, interactive applications with clean separation of concerns.

+title: MSIX Packaging (Windows)
+description: Guide for creating MSIX packages with Wails v3
+---
+
+# MSIX Packaging (Windows)
+
+Wails v3 can generate modern **MSIX** installers for Windows applications, providing a cleaner, safer and Store-ready alternative to traditional **NSIS** or plain `.exe` bundles.
+
+This guide walks through:
+
+* Prerequisites & tool installation  
+* Building your app as an MSIX package  
+* Signing the package  
+* Command-line reference  
+* Troubleshooting  
+
+---
+
+## 1. Prerequisites
+
+| Requirement | Notes |
+|-------------|-------|
+| **Windows 10 1809+ / Windows 11** | MSIX is only supported on Windows. |
+| **Windows SDK** (for `MakeAppx.exe` & `signtool.exe`) | Install from the [Windows SDK download page](https://developer.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/windows-sdk/). |
+| **Microsoft MSIX Packaging Tool** (optional) | Available from the Microsoft Store – provides a GUI & CLI. |
+| **Code-signing certificate** (recommended) | A `.pfx` file generated by your CA or `New-SelfSignedCertificate`. |
+
+> **Tip:** Wails ships a Task that opens the download pages for you:
+
+```bash
+# installs MakeAppx / signtool (via Windows SDK) and the MSIX Packaging Tool
+wails3 task windows:install:msix:tools
+```
+
+---
+
+## 2. Building an MSIX package
+
+### 2.1 Quick CLI
+
+```bash
+# Production build + MSIX
+wails3 tool msix \
+  --name MyApp                   \  # executable name
+  --executable build/bin/MyApp.exe \
+  --arch x64                     \  # x64, x86 or arm64
+  --out build/bin/MyApp-x64.msix
+```
+
+The command will:
+
+1. Create a temporary layout (`AppxManifest.xml`, `Assets/`).
+2. Call **MakeAppx.exe** (default) or **MsixPackagingTool.exe** if `--use-msix-tool` is passed.
+3. Optionally sign the package (see §3).
+
+### 2.2 Using the generated Taskfile
+
+When you ran `wails init`, Wails created `build/windows/Taskfile.yml`.  
+Packaging with MSIX is a one-liner:
+
+```bash
+# default=nsis, override FORMAT
+wails3 task windows:package FORMAT=msix
+```
+
+Output goes to `build/bin/MyApp-<arch>.msix`.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Signing the package
+
+Windows will refuse unsigned MSIX packages unless you enable developer-mode, so signing is strongly recommended.
+
+```bash
+wails3 tool msix \
+  --cert build/cert/CodeSign.pfx \
+  --cert-password "pfx-password" \
+  --publisher "CN=MyCompany" \
+  --out build/bin/MyApp.msix
+```
+
+* If you pass `--cert`, Wails automatically runs `signtool sign …`.
+* `--publisher` sets the `Publisher` field inside `AppxManifest.xml`.  
+  It **must** match the subject of your certificate.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Command-line reference
+
+| Flag | Default | Description |
+|------|---------|-------------|
+| `--config` | `wails.json` | Project config with **Info** & `fileAssociations`. |
+| `--name` | — | Executable name inside the package (no spaces). |
+| `--executable` | — | Path to the built `.exe`. |
+| `--arch` | `x64` | `x64`, `x86`, or `arm64`. |
+| `--out` | `<name>.msix` | Output path / filename. |
+| `--publisher` | `CN=<CompanyName>` | Publisher string in the manifest. |
+| `--cert` | ― | Path to `.pfx` certificate for signing. |
+| `--cert-password` | ― | Password for the `.pfx`. |
+| `--use-msix-tool` | `false` | Use **MsixPackagingTool.exe** instead of **MakeAppx.exe**. |
+| `--use-makeappx` | `true` | Force MakeAppx even if the MSIX Tool is installed. |
+
+---
+
+## 5. File associations
+
+Wails automatically injects file associations declared in `wails.json` into the package manifest:
+
+```json
+"fileAssociations": [
+  { "ext": "wails", "name": "Wails Project", "description": "Wails file", "role": "Editor" }
+]
+```
+
+After installation, Windows will offer your app as a handler for these extensions.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Troubleshooting
+
+| Problem | Solution |
+|---------|----------|
+| `MakeAppx.exe not found` | Install the Windows SDK and restart the terminal. |
+| `signtool.exe not found` | Same as above – both live in the SDK’s *bin* folder. |
+| *Package cannot be installed because publisher mismatch* | The certificate subject (CN) must match `--publisher`. |
+| *The certificate is not trusted* | Import the certificate into **Trusted Root Certification Authorities** or use a publicly trusted code-signing cert. |
+| Need GUI | Install **MSIX Packaging Tool** from the store and run `MsixPackagingTool.exe`. The template generated by Wails is fully compatible. |
+

+Relevant Platforms: <Badge text="Windows" variant="note" />
+<br/>
+
+Windows User Account Control (UAC) determines the execution privileges of your Wails application. By default, Wails v3 applications include explicit UAC configuration in their Windows manifest, ensuring consistent behavior across different machines.
+
+## UAC Execution Levels
+
+Windows applications can request different execution levels through their manifest file. Wails v3 automatically includes UAC configuration with a default execution level that you can customize based on your application's needs.
+
+### Available Execution Levels
+
+| Level | Description | Use Case |
+|-------|-------------|----------|
+| `asInvoker` | Runs with the same privileges as the parent process | Default for most applications |
+| `highestAvailable` | Runs with the highest privileges available to the user | Applications that may need elevated access |
+| `requireAdministrator` | Always requires administrator privileges | System utilities, installers |
+
+### Default Configuration
+
+Wails v3 applications include a default UAC configuration in their Windows manifest:
+
+```xml
+<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
+    <security>
+        <requestedPrivileges>
+            <requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false"/>
+        </requestedPrivileges>
+    </security>
+</trustInfo>
+```
+
+This configuration ensures your application:
+- Runs with the same privileges as the launching process
+- Does not require elevation by default
+- Works consistently across different machines
+- Does not trigger UAC prompts for normal users
+
+## Customizing UAC Configuration
+
+Since Wails v3 encourages users to customize their build assets, you can modify the UAC configuration by editing your Windows manifest template directly.
+
+### Locating the Manifest Template
+
+The Windows manifest template is located at:
+```
+build/windows/wails.exe.manifest
+```
+
+### Modifying the Execution Level
+
+To change the execution level, edit the `level` attribute in the `requestedExecutionLevel` element:
+
+```xml title="build/windows/wails.exe.manifest"
+<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
+    <security>
+        <requestedPrivileges>
+            <requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false"/>
+        </requestedPrivileges>
+    </security>
+</trustInfo>
+```
+
+### Examples
+
+#### Standard Application (Default)
+Most applications should use the default `asInvoker` level:
+
+```xml
+<requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false"/>
+```
+
+#### System Utility
+Applications that need elevated access when available:
+
+```xml
+<requestedExecutionLevel level="highestAvailable" uiAccess="false"/>
+```
+
+#### Administrative Tool
+Applications that always require administrator privileges:
+
+```xml
+<requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false"/>
+```
+
+## UI Access
+
+The `uiAccess` attribute controls whether your application can interact with higher-privilege UI elements. In most cases, this should remain `false`.
+
+Set to `true` only if your application needs to:
+- Send input to other applications
+- Drive the UI of other applications
+- Access UI elements of higher-privilege processes
+
+:::caution[UI Access Requirements]
+Setting `uiAccess="true"` requires your application to be:
+- Digitally signed with a certificate from a trusted certificate authority
+- Installed in a secure location (Program Files or Windows\System32)
+:::
+
+## Building with Custom UAC Settings
+
+After modifying your manifest template, build your application normally:
+
+```bash
+wails3 build
+```
+
+The build process will automatically embed your custom UAC configuration into the executable.
+
+## Verifying UAC Configuration
+
+You can verify that your UAC settings are properly embedded using the `go-winres` tool:
+
+```bash
+go-winres extract --in your-app.exe --out extracted-resources/
+```
+
+Then examine the extracted manifest file to confirm your UAC configuration is present.
+
+:::tip[Manifest Persistence]
+Unlike some other frameworks, Wails v3's UAC configuration is embedded directly into the executable during compilation, ensuring it persists when the application is copied to other machines.
+:::
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### UAC Prompts Not Appearing
+If you set `requireAdministrator` but don't see UAC prompts:
+- Verify the manifest is properly embedded in your executable
+- Check that you're not running from an already-elevated process
+- Ensure the manifest syntax is valid XML
+
+### Application Not Starting
+If your application fails to start after UAC changes:
+- Check the manifest syntax for XML errors
+- Verify the execution level value is valid
+- Try reverting to `asInvoker` to isolate the issue
+
+### Inconsistent Behavior Across Machines
+If UAC behavior differs between machines:
+- Ensure the manifest is embedded in the executable (not external)
+- Check that the executable wasn't modified after building
+- Verify Windows UAC settings are enabled on the target machine

+title: Advanced Binding Techniques
+sidebar:
+  order: 22
+---
+
+import { FileTree } from "@astrojs/starlight/components";
+
+This guide covers advanced techniques for customizing and optimizing the binding generation process in Wails v3.
+
+## Customizing Generated Code with Directives
+
+### Injecting Custom Code
+
+The `//wails:inject` directive allows you to inject custom JavaScript/TypeScript code into the generated bindings:
+
+```go
+//wails:inject console.log("Hello from Wails!");
+type MyService struct {}
+
+func (s *MyService) Greet(name string) string {
+    return "Hello, " + name
+}
+```
+
+This will inject the specified code into the generated JavaScript/TypeScript file for the `MyService` service.
+
+You can also use conditional injection to target specific output formats:
+
+```go
+//wails:inject j*:console.log("Hello JS!");  // JavaScript only
+//wails:inject t*:console.log("Hello TS!");  // TypeScript only
+```
+
+### Including Additional Files
+
+The `//wails:include` directive allows you to include additional files with the generated bindings:
+
+```go
+//wails:include js/*.js
+package mypackage
+```
+
+This directive is typically used in package documentation comments to include additional JavaScript/TypeScript files with the generated bindings.
+
+### Marking Internal Types and Methods
+
+The `//wails:internal` directive marks a type or method as internal, preventing it from being exported to the frontend:
+
+```go
+//wails:internal
+type InternalModel struct {
+    Field string
+}
+
+//wails:internal
+func (s *MyService) InternalMethod() {}
+```
+
+This is useful for types and methods that are only used internally by your Go code and should not be exposed to the frontend.
+
+### Ignoring Methods
+
+The `//wails:ignore` directive completely ignores a method during binding generation:
+
+```go
+//wails:ignore
+func (s *MyService) IgnoredMethod() {}
+```
+
+This is similar to `//wails:internal`, but it completely ignores the method rather than marking it as internal.
+
+### Custom Method IDs
+
+The `//wails:id` directive specifies a custom ID for a method, overriding the default hash-based ID:
+
+```go
+//wails:id 42
+func (s *MyService) CustomIDMethod() {}
+```
+
+This can be useful for maintaining compatibility when refactoring code.
+
+## Working with Complex Types
+
+### Nested Structs
+
+The binding generator handles nested structs automatically:
+
+```go
+type Address struct {
+    Street string
+    City   string
+    State  string
+    Zip    string
+}
+
+type Person struct {
+    Name    string
+    Address Address
+}
+
+func (s *MyService) GetPerson() Person {
+    return Person{
+        Name: "John Doe",
+        Address: Address{
+            Street: "123 Main St",
+            City:   "Anytown",
+            State:  "CA",
+            Zip:    "12345",
+        },
+    }
+}
+```
+
+The generated JavaScript/TypeScript code will include classes for both `Person` and `Address`.
+
+### Maps and Slices
+
+Maps and slices are also handled automatically:
+
+```go
+type Person struct {
+    Name       string
+    Attributes map[string]string
+    Friends    []string
+}
+
+func (s *MyService) GetPerson() Person {
+    return Person{
+        Name: "John Doe",
+        Attributes: map[string]string{
+            "hair": "brown",
+            "eyes": "blue",
+        },
+        Friends: []string{"Jane", "Bob", "Alice"},
+    }
+}
+```
+
+In JavaScript, maps are represented as objects and slices as arrays. In TypeScript, maps are represented as `Record<K, V>` and slices as `T[]`.
+
+### Generic Types
+
+The binding generator supports generic types:
+
+```go
+type Result[T any] struct {
+    Data  T
+    Error string
+}
+
+func (s *MyService) GetResult() Result[string] {
+    return Result[string]{
+        Data:  "Hello, World!",
+        Error: "",
+    }
+}
+```
+
+The generated TypeScript code will include a generic class for `Result`:
+
+```typescript
+export class Result<T> {
+    "Data": T;
+    "Error": string;
+
+    constructor(source: Partial<Result<T>> = {}) {
+        if (!("Data" in source)) {
+            this["Data"] = null as any;
+        }
+        if (!("Error" in source)) {
+            this["Error"] = "";
+        }
+
+        Object.assign(this, source);
+    }
+
+    static createFrom<T>(source: string | object = {}): Result<T> {
+        let parsedSource = typeof source === "string" ? JSON.parse(source) : source;
+        return new Result<T>(parsedSource as Partial<Result<T>>);
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Interfaces
+
+The binding generator can generate TypeScript interfaces instead of classes using the `-i` flag:
+
+```bash
+wails3 generate bindings -ts -i
+```
+
+This will generate TypeScript interfaces for all models:
+
+```typescript
+export interface Person {
+    Name: string;
+    Attributes: Record<string, string>;
+    Friends: string[];
+}
+```
+
+## Optimizing Binding Generation
+
+### Using Names Instead of IDs
+
+By default, the binding generator uses hash-based IDs for method calls. You can use the `-names` flag to use names instead:
+
+```bash
+wails3 generate bindings -names
+```
+
+This will generate code that uses method names instead of IDs:
+
+```javascript
+export function Greet(name) {
+    let $resultPromise = $Call.ByName("Greet", name);
+    return $resultPromise;
+}
+```
+
+This can make the generated code more readable and easier to debug, but it may be slightly less efficient.
+
+### Bundling the Runtime
+
+By default, the generated code imports the Wails runtime from the `@wailsio/runtime` npm package. You can use the `-b` flag to bundle the runtime with the generated code:
+
+```bash
+wails3 generate bindings -b
+```
+
+This will include the runtime code directly in the generated files, eliminating the need for the npm package.
+
+### Disabling Index Files
+
+If you don't need the index files, you can use the `-noindex` flag to disable their generation:
+
+```bash
+wails3 generate bindings -noindex
+```
+
+This can be useful if you prefer to import services and models directly from their respective files.
+
+## Real-World Examples
+
+### Authentication Service
+
+Here's an example of an authentication service with custom directives:
+
+```go
+package auth
+
+//wails:inject console.log("Auth service initialized");
+type AuthService struct {
+    // Private fields
+    users map[string]User
+}
+
+type User struct {
+    Username string
+    Email    string
+    Role     string
+}
+
+type LoginRequest struct {
+    Username string
+    Password string
+}
+
+type LoginResponse struct {
+    Success bool
+    User    User
+    Token   string
+    Error   string
+}
+
+// Login authenticates a user

+}
+
+// Internal helper method
+//wails:internal
+func (s *AuthService) validateCredentials(username, password string) bool {
+    // Implementation...
+}
+```
+
+### Data Processing Service
+
+Here's an example of a data processing service with generic types:
+
+```go
+package data
+
+type ProcessingResult[T any] struct {
+    Data  T
+    Error string
+}
+
+type DataService struct {}
+
+// Process processes data and returns a result
+func (s *DataService) Process(data string) ProcessingResult[map[string]int] {
+    // Implementation...
+}
+
+// ProcessBatch processes multiple data items
+func (s *DataService) ProcessBatch(data []string) ProcessingResult[[]map[string]int] {
+    // Implementation...
+}
+
+// Internal helper method
+//wails:internal
+func (s *DataService) parseData(data string) (map[string]int, error) {
+    // Implementation...
+}
+```
+
+### Conditional Code Injection
+
+Here's an example of conditional code injection for different output formats:
+
+```go
+//wails:inject j*:/**
+//wails:inject j*: * @param {string} arg
+//wails:inject j*: * @returns {Promise<void>}
+//wails:inject j*: */
+//wails:inject j*:export async function CustomMethod(arg) {
+//wails:inject t*:export async function CustomMethod(arg: string): Promise<void> {
+//wails:inject     await InternalMethod("Hello " + arg + "!");
+//wails:inject }
+type Service struct{}
+```
+
+This injects different code for JavaScript and TypeScript outputs, providing appropriate type annotations for each language.

+
+## Introduction
+
+Wails provides a cross-platform badge service for desktop applications. This service allows you to display badges on your application tile or dock icon, which is useful for indicating unread messages, notifications, or other status information.
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+### Creating the Service
+
+First, initialize the badge service:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+import "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/services/badge"
+
+// Create a new badge service
+badgeService := badge.New()
+
+// Register the service with the application
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Services: []application.Service{
+        application.NewService(badgeService),
+    },
+})
+```
+
+### Creating the Service with Custom Options (Windows Only)
+
+On Windows, you can customize the badge appearance with various options:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+import "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/services/badge"
+import "image/color"
+
+// Create a badge service with custom options
+options := badge.Options{
+    TextColour:       color.RGBA{255, 255, 255, 255}, // White text
+    BackgroundColour: color.RGBA{0, 0, 255, 255},     // Blue background
+    FontName:         "consolab.ttf",                 // Bold Consolas font
+    FontSize:         20,                             // Font size for single character
+    SmallFontSize:    14,                             // Font size for multiple characters
+}
+
+badgeService := badge.NewWithOptions(options)
+
+// Register the service with the application
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Services: []application.Service{
+        application.NewService(badgeService),
+    },
+})
+```
+
+## Badge Operations
+
+### Setting a Badge
+
+Set a badge on the application tile/dock icon:
+
+```go
+// Set a default badge
+badgeService.SetBadge("")
+
+// Set a numeric badge
+badgeService.SetBadge("3")
+
+// Set a text badge
+badgeService.SetBadge("New")
+```
+
+### Setting a Custom Badge
+
+Set a badge on the application tile/dock icon with one-off options applied:
+
+#### Go
+```go
+options := badge.Options{
+    BackgroundColour: color.RGBA{0, 255, 255, 255},
+    FontName: "arialb.ttf", // System font
+    FontSize: 16,
+    SmallFontSize: 10,
+    TextColour: color.RGBA{0, 0, 0, 255},
+}
+
+// Set a default badge
+badgeService.SetCustomBadge("", options)
+
+// Set a numeric badge
+badgeService.SetCustomBadge("3", options)
+
+// Set a text badge
+badgeService.SetCustomBadge("New", options)
+```
+
+### Removing a Badge
+
+Remove the badge from the application icon:
+
+```go
+badgeService.RemoveBadge()
+```
+
+## Platform Considerations
+
+<Tabs>
+  <TabItem label="macOS" icon="fa-brands:apple">
+    
+    On macOS, badges:
+    
+    - Are displayed directly on the dock icon
+    - Support text values
+    - Automatically handle dark/light mode appearance
+    - Use the standard macOS dock badge styling
+    - Automatically handle label overflow
+    - Do not support customization options (any options passed to NewWithOptions will be ignored)
+    - Will display "●" as the default badge if an empty label is provided
+    
+  </TabItem>
+  
+  <TabItem label="Windows" icon="fa-brands:windows">
+    
+    On Windows, badges:
+    
+    - Are displayed as an overlay icon in the taskbar
+    - Support text values
+    - Allow customization of colors, font, and font sizes
+    - Adapt to Windows theme settings
+    - Require the application to have a window
+    - Use smaller font size automatically for badges with multiple characters
+    - Do not handle label overflow
+    - Support the following customization options:
+      - TextColour: Text color (default: white)
+      - BackgroundColour: Badge background color (default: red)
+      - FontName: Font file name (default: "segoeuib.ttf")
+      - FontSize: Font size for single character (default: 18)
+      - SmallFontSize: Font size for multiple characters (default: 14)
+    
+  </TabItem>
+  
+  <TabItem label="Linux" icon="fa-brands:linux">
+    
+    On Linux:
+    
+    - Badge functionality is not available
+    
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. Use badges sparingly:
+   - Too many badge updates can distract users
+   - Reserve badges for important notifications
+
+2. Keep badge text short:
+   - Numeric badges are most effective
+   - On macOS, text badges should be brief
+
+3. For Windows customization:
+   - Ensure high contrast between text and background colors
+   - Test with different text lengths as font size decreases with length
+   - Use common system fonts to ensure availability

+
+This guide provides best practices and patterns for using the Wails binding system effectively in your applications.
+
+## Service Design Patterns
+
+### Service Organization
+
+Organize your services based on functionality rather than technical concerns. For example, instead of having a single large service, split it into smaller, focused services:
+
+```go
+// Instead of this:
+type AppService struct {}
+
+func (s *AppService) GetUser() User { /* ... */ }
+func (s *AppService) UpdateUser(user User) error { /* ... */ }
+func (s *AppService) GetProducts() []Product { /* ... */ }
+func (s *AppService) AddProduct(product Product) error { /* ... */ }
+
+// Do this:
+type UserService struct {}
+func (s *UserService) GetUser() User { /* ... */ }
+func (s *UserService) UpdateUser(user User) error { /* ... */ }
+
+type ProductService struct {}
+func (s *ProductService) GetProducts() []Product { /* ... */ }
+func (s *ProductService) AddProduct(product Product) error { /* ... */ }
+```
+
+This makes your code more maintainable and easier to understand.
+
+### Use JSON Tags
+
+Use JSON tags to control how your models are serialized:
+
+```go
+type User struct {
+    ID        int       `json:"id"`
+    Name      string    `json:"name"`
+    Email     string    `json:"email"`
+    Password  string    `json:"-"`  // Exclude from JSON
+    CreatedAt time.Time `json:"created_at"`
+    UpdatedAt time.Time `json:"updated_at"`
+}
+```
+
+### Separate Frontend and Backend Models
+
+Consider using different models for the frontend and backend:
+
+```go
+// Backend model
+type User struct {
+    ID        int
+    Name      string
+    Email     string
+    Password  string  // Sensitive data
+    CreatedAt time.Time
+    UpdatedAt time.Time
+}
+
+// Frontend model
+type UserDTO struct {
+    ID        int       `json:"id"`
+    Name      string    `json:"name"`
+    Email     string    `json:"email"`
+    CreatedAt time.Time `json:"created_at"`
+}
+
+func (s *UserService) GetUser() UserDTO {
+    user := getUserFromDatabase()
+    return UserDTO{
+        ID:        user.ID,
+        Name:      user.Name,
+        Email:     user.Email,
+        CreatedAt: user.CreatedAt,
+    }
+}
+```
+
+This gives you more control over what data is exposed to the frontend.
+
+### Use Context for Cancellation
+
+Use context for cancellation to avoid wasting resources on abandoned requests:
+
+```go
+func (s *ProductService) GetProducts(ctx context.Context, req ProductsRequest) (ProductsResponse, error) {
+    // Check if the request has been cancelled
+    select {
+    case <-ctx.Done():
+        return ProductsResponse{}, ctx.Err()
+    default:
+        // Continue processing
+    }
+
+    products, total, err := getProductsFromDatabase(ctx, req.Page, req.PageSize, req.Filter)
+    if err != nil {
+        return ProductsResponse{}, err
+    }
+
+    return ProductsResponse{
+        Products: products,
+        Total:    total,
+        Page:     req.Page,
+        PageSize: req.PageSize,
+    }, nil
+}
+```

+
+import { FileTree } from "@astrojs/starlight/components";
+
+This guide explains how the Wails binding system works internally, providing insights for developers who want to understand the mechanics behind the automatic code generation.
+
+## Architecture Overview
+
+The Wails binding system consists of three main components:
+
+1. **Collection**: Analyzes Go code to extract information about services, models, and other declarations
+2. **Configuration**: Manages settings and options for the binding generation process
+3. **Rendering**: Generates JavaScript/TypeScript code based on the collected information
+
+<FileTree>
+- internal/generator/
+  - collect/     # Package analysis and information extraction
+  - config/      # Configuration structures and interfaces
+  - render/      # Code generation for JS/TS
+</FileTree>
+
+## Collection Process
+
+The collection process is responsible for analyzing Go packages and extracting information about services, models, and other declarations. This is handled by the `collect` package.
+
+### Key Components
+
+- **Collector**: Manages package information and caches collected data
+- **Package**: Represents a Go package being analyzed and stores collected services, models, and directives
+- **Service**: Collects information about service types and their methods
+- **Model**: Collects detailed information about model types, including fields, values, and type parameters
+- **Directive**: Parses and interprets `//wails:` directives in Go source code
+
+### Collection Flow
+
+1. The collector scans the Go packages specified in the project
+2. It identifies service types (structs with methods that will be exposed to the frontend)
+3. For each service, it collects information about its methods
+4. It identifies model types (structs used as parameters or return values in service methods)
+5. For each model, it collects information about its fields and type parameters
+6. It processes any `//wails:` directives found in the code
+
+## Rendering Process
+
+The rendering process is responsible for generating JavaScript/TypeScript code based on the collected information. This is handled by the `render` package.
+
+### Key Components
+
+- **Renderer**: Orchestrates the rendering of service, model, and index files
+- **Module**: Represents a single generated JavaScript/TypeScript module
+- **Templates**: Text templates used for code generation
+
+### Rendering Flow
+
+1. For each service, the renderer generates a JavaScript/TypeScript file with functions that mirror the service methods
+2. For each model, the renderer generates a JavaScript/TypeScript class that mirrors the model struct
+3. The renderer generates index files that re-export all services and models
+4. The renderer applies any custom code injections specified by `//wails:inject` directives
+
+## Type Mapping
+
+One of the most important aspects of the binding system is how Go types are mapped to JavaScript/TypeScript types. Here's a summary of the mapping:
+
+| Go Type | JavaScript Type | TypeScript Type |
+|---------|----------------|----------------|
+| `bool` | `boolean` | `boolean` |
+| `int`, `int8`, `int16`, `int32`, `int64`, `uint`, `uint8`, `uint16`, `uint32`, `uint64`, `float32`, `float64` | `number` | `number` |
+| `string` | `string` | `string` |
+| `[]byte` | `Uint8Array` | `Uint8Array` |
+| `[]T` | `Array<T>` | `T[]` |
+| `map[K]V` | `Object` | `Record<K, V>` |
+| `struct` | `Object` | Custom class |
+| `interface{}` | `any` | `any` |
+| `*T` | `T \| null` | `T \| null` |
+| `func` | Not supported | Not supported |
+| `chan` | Not supported | Not supported |
+
+## Directives System
+
+The binding system supports several directives that can be used to customize the generated code. These directives are added as comments in your Go code.
+
+### Available Directives
+
+- `//wails:inject`: Injects custom JavaScript/TypeScript code into the generated bindings
+- `//wails:include`: Includes additional files with the generated bindings
+- `//wails:internal`: Marks a type or method as internal, preventing it from being exported to the frontend
+- `//wails:ignore`: Completely ignores a method during binding generation
+- `//wails:id`: Specifies a custom ID for a method, overriding the default hash-based ID
+
+### Directive Processing
+
+1. During the collection phase, the collector identifies and parses directives in the Go code
+2. The directives are stored with the corresponding declarations (services, methods, models, etc.)
+3. During the rendering phase, the renderer applies the directives to customize the generated code
+
+## Advanced Features
+
+### Conditional Code Generation
+
+The binding system supports conditional code generation using a two-character condition prefix for `include` and `inject` directives:
+
+```
+<language><style>:<content>
+```
+
+Where:
+- `<language>` can be:
+  - `*` - Both JavaScript and TypeScript
+  - `j` - JavaScript only
+  - `t` - TypeScript only
+
+- `<style>` can be:
+  - `*` - Both classes and interfaces
+  - `c` - Classes only
+  - `i` - Interfaces only
+
+For example:
+```go
+//wails:inject j*:console.log("JavaScript only");
+//wails:inject t*:console.log("TypeScript only");
+```
+
+### Custom Method IDs
+
+By default, methods are identified by a hash-based ID. However, you can specify a custom ID using the `//wails:id` directive:
+
+```go
+//wails:id 42
+func (s *Service) CustomIDMethod() {}
+```
+
+This can be useful for maintaining compatibility when refactoring code.
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+The binding generator is designed to be efficient, but there are a few things to keep in mind:
+
+1. The first run will be slower as it builds up a cache of packages to scan
+2. Subsequent runs will be faster as they use the cached information
+3. The generator processes all packages in the project, which can be time-consuming for large projects
+4. You can use the `-clean` flag to clean the output directory before generation
+
+## Debugging
+
+If you encounter issues with the binding generation, you can use the `-v` flag to enable debug output:
+
+```bash
+wails3 generate bindings -v
+```
+
+This will provide detailed information about the collection and rendering process, which can help identify the source of the issue.

 ```
+
+In fact, the runtime returns a special promise wrapper
+that provides cancellation support for arbitrarily long promise chains.
+For example:
+
+```javascript
+import { CancelError } from "@wailsio/runtime";
+
+// Call the method and process its output
+const promise = MyService.LongRunningTask("input").then((result) => {
+    console.log(result);

+// cancel() accepts an optional cause parameter
+// that will be attached to the cancellation error:
+promise.cancel("I'm tired of waiting!").then(() => {
+    // Cancellation has been requested successfully
+    // and all handlers attached above have run.
+    console.log("Ready for the next adventure!");
+});
+```
+
+The `cancel` method returns a promise that fulfills always (and never rejects)
+after the cancellation request has been submitted successfully
+and all previously attached handlers have run.
+
+:::note
+Calling the `cancel` method on a settled promise is safe and has no effect;
+if the task completes before the call to `cancel`, the code above is going to log:
+
+```
+completed
+Ready for the next adventure!
+```
+
+However, if `cancel` is called before the task finishes, the output will be:
+
+```
+Cancelled. I'm tired of waiting!
+Ready for the next adventure!
+```
+:::
+
+The approach discussed above requires storing and chaining promises manually,
+which can be cumbersome for code written in `async`/`await` style.
+If you target plaforms that support the `AbortController`/`AbortSignal` idiom,
+you can call the `cancelOn` method and tie call cancellation to an `AbortSignal` instead:
+
+```javascript
+async function callBinding(signal) {
+    try {
+        await MyService.LongRunningTask("input").cancelOn(signal);

+
+### Handling errors
+
+As you may have noticed above, bound methods can return errors, which are handled specially.
+When a result field has type `error`, it is omitted by default from the values returned to JS.
+When such a field is _non-nil_, the promise rejects with a `RuntimeError` exception
+that wraps the Go error message:
+
+```go
+func (*MyService) FailingMethod(name string) error {
+    return fmt.Errorf("Welcome to an imperfect world, %s", name)
+}
+```
+
+```js
+import { MyService } from './bindings/changeme';
+
+try {
+    await MyService.FailingMethod("CLU")
+} catch (err) {
+    if (err.name === 'RuntimeError') {
+        console.log(err.message); // Prints 'Welcome to an imperfect world, CLU'
+    }
+}
+```
+
+The exception will be an instance of the `Call.RuntimeError` class from the wails runtime,
+hence you can also test its type like this:
+
+```js
+import { Call } from '@wailsio/runtime';
+
+try {
+    // ...
+} catch (err) {
+    if (err instanceof Call.RuntimeError) {
+        // ...
+    }
+}
+```
+
+If the Go error value supports JSON marshaling, the exception's `cause` property
+will hold the marshaled version of the error:
+
+```go
+type ImperfectWorldError struct {
+    Name string `json:"name"`
+}
+
+func (err *ImperfectWorldError) Error() {
+    return fmt.Sprintf("Welcome to an imperfect world, %s", err.Name)
+}
+
+func (*MyService) FailingMethod(name string) error {
+    return &ImperfectWorldError{
+        Name: name,
+    }
+}
+```
+
+```js
+import { MyService } from './bindings/changeme';
+
+try {
+    await MyService.FailingMethod("CLU")
+} catch (err) {
+    if (err.name === 'RuntimeError') {
+        console.log(err.cause.name); // Prints 'CLU'
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Generally, many Go error values will only have limited or no support for marshaling to JSON.
+If you so wish, you can customise the value provided as cause
+by specifying either a global or per-service error marshaling function:
+
+```go
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    MarshalError: func(err error) []byte {
+        // ...
+    },
+    Services: []application.Service{
+        application.NewServiceWithOptions(&MyService{}, application.ServiceOptions{
+            MarshalError: func(err error) []byte {
+                // ...
+            },
+        }),
+    },
+})
+```
+
+Per-service functions override the global function,
+which in turn overrides the default behaviour of using `json.Marshal`.
+If a marshaling function returns `nil`, it falls back to the outer function:
+per-service functions fall back to the global function,
+which in turn falls back to the default behaviour.
+
+:::tip
+If you wish to omit the `cause` property on the resulting exception,
+let the marshaling function return a falsy JSON value like `[]byte("null")`.
+:::
+
+Here's an example marshaling function that unwraps path errors and reports the file path:
+
+```go
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    MarshalError: func(err error) []byte {
+        var perr *fs.PathError
+        if !errors.As(err, &perr) {
+            // Not a path error, fall back to default handling.
+            return nil
+        }
+
+        // Marshal path string
+        path, err := json.Marshal(&perr.Path)
+        if err != nil {
+            // String marshaling failed, fall back to default handling.
+            return nil
+        }
+
+        return []byte(fmt.Sprintf(`{"path":%s}`, path))
+    },
+})
+```
+
+:::note
+Error marshaling functions are not allowed to fail.
+If they are not able to process a given error and return valid JSON,
+they should return `nil` and fall back to a more generic handler.
+If no strategy succeeds, the exception will not have a `cause` property.
+:::
+
+Binding call promises may also reject with a `TypeError`
+when the method has been passed the wrong number of arguments,
+when the conversion of arguments from JSON to their Go types fails,
+or when the conversion of results to JSON fails.
+These problems will usually be caught early by the type system.
+If your code typechecks but you still get type errors,
+it might be that some of your Go types are not supported by the `encoding/json` package:
+look for warnings from the binding generator to catch these.
+
+:::caution
+If you see a `ReferenceError` complaining about unknown methods,
+it could mean that your JS bindings have gotten out of sync with Go code
+and must be regenerated.

+title: Browser Integration
+sidebar:
+  order: 58
+---
+
+import { Tabs, TabItem } from "@astrojs/starlight/components";
+
+Wails provides simple browser integration through the BrowserManager API, allowing your application to open URLs and files in the user's default web browser. This is useful for opening external links, documentation, or files that should be handled by the browser.
+
+## Accessing the Browser Manager
+
+The browser manager is accessed through the `Browser` property on your application instance:
+
+```go
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Name: "Browser Integration Demo",
+})
+
+// Access the browser manager
+browser := app.Browser
+```
+
+## Opening URLs
+
+### Open Web URLs
+
+Open URLs in the user's default web browser:
+
+```go
+// Open a website
+err := app.Browser.OpenURL("https://wails.io")
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open URL", "error", err)
+}
+
+// Open specific pages
+err = app.Browser.OpenURL("https://github.com/wailsapp/wails")
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open GitHub", "error", err)
+}
+```
+
+### Open Local URLs
+
+Open local development servers or local network resources:
+
+```go
+// Open local development server
+err := app.Browser.OpenURL("http://localhost:3000")
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open local server", "error", err)
+}
+
+// Open network resource
+err = app.Browser.OpenURL("http://192.168.1.100:8080")
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open network resource", "error", err)
+}
+```
+
+## Opening Files
+
+### Open HTML Files
+
+Open local HTML files in the browser:
+
+```go
+// Open an HTML file
+err := app.Browser.OpenFile("/path/to/documentation.html")
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open HTML file", "error", err)
+}
+
+// Open generated reports
+reportPath := "/tmp/report.html"
+err = app.Browser.OpenFile(reportPath)
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open report", "error", err)
+}
+```
+
+### Open Other File Types
+
+Open various file types that browsers can handle:
+
+```go
+// Open PDF files
+err := app.Browser.OpenFile("/path/to/document.pdf")
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open PDF", "error", err)
+}
+
+// Open image files
+err = app.Browser.OpenFile("/path/to/image.png")
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open image", "error", err)
+}
+
+// Open text files
+err = app.Browser.OpenFile("/path/to/readme.txt")
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open text file", "error", err)
+}
+```
+
+## Common Use Cases
+
+### Help and Documentation
+
+Provide easy access to help resources:
+
+```go
+// Create help menu
+func setupHelpMenu(app *application.App) {
+    menu := app.Menu.New()
+    helpMenu := menu.AddSubmenu("Help")
+    
+    helpMenu.Add("Online Documentation").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        err := app.Browser.OpenURL("https://docs.yourapp.com")
+        if err != nil {
+            app.Dialog.Error().
+                SetTitle("Error").
+                SetMessage("Could not open documentation").
+                Show()
+        }
+    })
+    
+    helpMenu.Add("GitHub Repository").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        app.Browser.OpenURL("https://github.com/youruser/yourapp")
+    })
+    
+    helpMenu.Add("Report Issue").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        app.Browser.OpenURL("https://github.com/youruser/yourapp/issues/new")
+    })
+}
+```
+
+### External Links in Content
+
+Handle external links from your application content:
+
+```go
+func handleExternalLink(app *application.App, url string) {
+    // Validate the URL before opening
+    if !isValidURL(url) {
+        app.Logger.Warn("Invalid URL", "url", url)
+        return
+    }
+    
+    // Optionally confirm with user
+    dialog := app.Dialog.Question()
+    dialog.SetTitle("Open External Link")
+    dialog.SetMessage(fmt.Sprintf("Open %s in your browser?", url))
+    
+    dialog.AddButton("Open").OnClick(func() {
+        err := app.Browser.OpenURL(url)
+        if err != nil {
+            app.Logger.Error("Failed to open URL", "url", url, "error", err)
+        }
+    })
+    
+    dialog.AddButton("Cancel")
+    dialog.Show()
+}
+
+func isValidURL(url string) bool {
+    parsed, err := url.Parse(url)
+    return err == nil && (parsed.Scheme == "http" || parsed.Scheme == "https")
+}
+```
+
+### Export and View Reports
+
+Generate and open reports in the browser:
+
+```go
+import (
+    "html/template"
+    "os"
+    "path/filepath"
+)
+
+func generateAndOpenReport(app *application.App, data interface{}) error {
+    // Create temporary file for the report
+    tmpDir := os.TempDir()
+    reportPath := filepath.Join(tmpDir, "report.html")
+    
+    // Generate HTML report
+    tmpl := `
+<!DOCTYPE html>
+<html>
+<head>
+    <title>Application Report</title>
+    <style>
+        body { font-family: Arial, sans-serif; margin: 40px; }
+        .header { border-bottom: 2px solid #333; padding-bottom: 10px; }
+        .data { margin-top: 20px; }
+    </style>
+</head>
+<body>
+    <div class="header">
+        <h1>Application Report</h1>
+        <p>Generated: {{.Timestamp}}</p>
+    </div>
+    <div class="data">
+        <!-- Report content here -->
+        {{range .Items}}
+        <p>{{.}}</p>
+        {{end}}
+    </div>
+</body>
+</html>`
+    
+    // Write report to file
+    file, err := os.Create(reportPath)
+    if err != nil {
+        return err
+    }
+    defer file.Close()
+    
+    t, err := template.New("report").Parse(tmpl)
+    if err != nil {
+        return err
+    }
+    
+    err = t.Execute(file, data)
+    if err != nil {
+        return err
+    }
+    
+    // Open in browser
+    return app.Browser.OpenFile(reportPath)
+}
+```
+
+### Development Tools
+
+Open development resources during development:
+
+```go
+func setupDevelopmentMenu(app *application.App) {
+    if !app.Environment.Info().Debug {
+        return // Only show in debug mode
+    }
+    
+    menu := app.Menu.New()
+    devMenu := menu.AddSubmenu("Development")
+    
+    devMenu.Add("Open DevTools").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        // This would open browser devtools if available
+        window := app.Window.Current()
+        if window != nil {
+            window.OpenDevTools()
+        }
+    })
+    
+    devMenu.Add("View Source").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        // Open source code repository
+        app.Browser.OpenURL("https://github.com/youruser/yourapp")
+    })
+    
+    devMenu.Add("API Documentation").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        // Open local API docs
+        app.Browser.OpenURL("http://localhost:8080/docs")
+    })
+}
+```
+
+## Error Handling
+
+### Graceful Error Handling
+
+Always handle potential errors when opening URLs or files:
+
+```go
+func openURLWithFallback(app *application.App, url string, fallbackMessage string) {
+    err := app.Browser.OpenURL(url)
+    if err != nil {
+        app.Logger.Error("Failed to open URL", "url", url, "error", err)
+        
+        // Show fallback dialog with URL
+        dialog := app.Dialog.Info()
+        dialog.SetTitle("Unable to Open Link")
+        dialog.SetMessage(fmt.Sprintf("%s\n\nURL: %s", fallbackMessage, url))
+        dialog.Show()
+    }
+}
+
+// Usage
+openURLWithFallback(app, 
+    "https://docs.example.com", 
+    "Please open the following URL manually in your browser:")
+```
+
+### User Feedback
+
+Provide feedback when operations succeed or fail:
+
+```go
+func openURLWithFeedback(app *application.App, url string) {
+    err := app.Browser.OpenURL(url)
+    if err != nil {
+        // Show error dialog
+        app.Dialog.Error().
+            SetTitle("Browser Error").
+            SetMessage(fmt.Sprintf("Could not open URL: %s", err.Error())).
+            Show()
+    } else {
+        // Optionally show success notification
+        app.Logger.Info("URL opened successfully", "url", url)
+    }
+}
+```

+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Always Handle Errors**: Browser operations can fail for various reasons:
+   ```go
+   if err := app.Browser.OpenURL(url); err != nil {
+       app.Logger.Error("Failed to open browser", "error", err)
+       // Provide fallback or user notification
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Validate URLs**: Ensure URLs are well-formed before opening:
+   ```go
+   func isValidHTTPURL(str string) bool {
+       u, err := url.Parse(str)
+       return err == nil && (u.Scheme == "http" || u.Scheme == "https")
+   }
+   ```
+
+3. **User Confirmation**: For external links, consider asking user permission:
+   ```go
+   // Show confirmation dialog before opening external links
+   confirmAndOpen(app, "https://external-site.com")
+   ```
+
+4. **Secure File Paths**: When opening files, ensure paths are safe:
+   ```go
+   func openSafeFile(app *application.App, filename string) error {
+       // Ensure file exists and is readable
+       if _, err := os.Stat(filename); err != nil {
+           return err
+       }
+       return app.Browser.OpenFile(filename)
+   }
+   ```
+

+import { Tabs, TabItem } from "@astrojs/starlight/components";
+
+Wails provides comprehensive environment information through the EnvironmentManager API. This allows your application to detect system properties, theme preferences, and integrate with the operating system's file manager.
+
+## Accessing the Environment Manager
+
+The environment manager is accessed through the `Env` property on your application instance:
+
+```go
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Name: "Environment Demo",
+})
+
+// Access the environment manager
+env := app.Env
+```
+
+## System Information
+
+### Get Environment Information
+
+Retrieve comprehensive information about the runtime environment:
+
+```go
+envInfo := app.Env.Info()
+
+app.Logger.Info("Environment information",
+    "os", envInfo.OS,           // "windows", "darwin", "linux"
+    "arch", envInfo.Arch,       // "amd64", "arm64", etc.
+    "debug", envInfo.Debug,     // Debug mode flag
+)
+
+// Operating system details
+if envInfo.OSInfo != nil {
+    app.Logger.Info("OS details",
+        "name", envInfo.OSInfo.Name,
+        "version", envInfo.OSInfo.Version,
+    )
+}
+
+// Platform-specific information
+for key, value := range envInfo.PlatformInfo {
+    app.Logger.Info("Platform info", "key", key, "value", value)
+}
+```
+
+### Environment Structure
+
+The environment information includes several important fields:
+
+```go
+type EnvironmentInfo struct {
+    OS           string                 // Operating system: "windows", "darwin", "linux"
+    Arch         string                 // Architecture: "amd64", "arm64", "386", etc.
+    Debug        bool                   // Whether running in debug mode
+    OSInfo       *operatingsystem.OS    // Detailed OS information
+    PlatformInfo map[string]any         // Platform-specific details
+}
+```
+
+## Theme Detection
+
+### Dark Mode Detection
+
+Detect whether the system is using dark mode:
+
+```go
+if app.Env.IsDarkMode() {
+    app.Logger.Info("System is in dark mode")
+    // Apply dark theme to your application
+    applyDarkTheme()
+} else {
+    app.Logger.Info("System is in light mode")
+    // Apply light theme to your application
+    applyLightTheme()
+}
+```
+
+### Theme Change Monitoring
+
+Listen for theme changes to update your application dynamically:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/events"
+
+// Listen for theme changes
+app.OnApplicationEvent(events.Common.ThemeChanged, func(event *application.ApplicationEvent) {
+    if app.Env.IsDarkMode() {
+        app.Logger.Info("Switched to dark mode")
+        updateApplicationTheme("dark")
+    } else {
+        app.Logger.Info("Switched to light mode")
+        updateApplicationTheme("light")
+    }
+})
+
+func updateApplicationTheme(theme string) {
+    // Update your application's theme
+    // This could emit an event to the frontend
+    app.Event.Emit("theme:changed", theme)
+}
+```
+
+## File Manager Integration
+
+### Open File Manager
+
+Open the system's file manager at a specific location:
+
+```go
+// Open file manager at a directory
+err := app.Env.OpenFileManager("/Users/username/Documents", false)
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open file manager", "error", err)
+}
+
+// Open file manager and select a specific file
+err = app.Env.OpenFileManager("/Users/username/Documents/report.pdf", true)
+if err != nil {
+    app.Logger.Error("Failed to open file manager with selection", "error", err)
+}
+```
+
+### Common Use Cases
+
+Show files or folders in the file manager from your application:
+
+```go
+func showInFileManager(app *application.App, path string) {
+    err := app.Env.OpenFileManager(path, true)
+    if err != nil {
+        // Fallback: try opening just the directory
+        dir := filepath.Dir(path)
+        err = app.Env.OpenFileManager(dir, false)
+        if err != nil {
+            app.Logger.Error("Could not open file manager", "path", path, "error", err)
+            
+            // Show error to user
+            app.Dialog.Error().
+                SetTitle("File Manager Error").
+                SetMessage("Could not open file manager").
+                Show()
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+// Usage examples
+func setupFileMenu(app *application.App) {
+    menu := app.Menu.New()
+    fileMenu := menu.AddSubmenu("File")
+    
+    fileMenu.Add("Show Downloads Folder").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        homeDir, _ := os.UserHomeDir()
+        downloadsDir := filepath.Join(homeDir, "Downloads")
+        showInFileManager(app, downloadsDir)
+    })
+    
+    fileMenu.Add("Show Application Data").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        configDir, _ := os.UserConfigDir()
+        appDir := filepath.Join(configDir, "MyApp")
+        showInFileManager(app, appDir)
+    })
+}
+```
+
+## Platform-Specific Behavior
+
+### Adaptive Application Behavior
+
+Use environment information to adapt your application's behavior:
+
+```go
+func configureForPlatform(app *application.App) {
+    envInfo := app.Env.Info()
+    
+    switch envInfo.OS {
+    case "darwin":
+        configureMacOS(app)
+    case "windows":
+        configureWindows(app)
+    case "linux":
+        configureLinux(app)
+    }
+    
+    // Adapt to architecture
+    if envInfo.Arch == "arm64" {
+        app.Logger.Info("Running on ARM architecture")
+        // Potentially optimize for ARM
+    }
+}
+
+func configureMacOS(app *application.App) {
+    app.Logger.Info("Configuring for macOS")
+    
+    // macOS-specific configuration
+    menu := app.Menu.New()
+    menu.AddRole(application.AppMenu) // Add standard macOS app menu
+    
+    // Handle dark mode
+    if app.Env.IsDarkMode() {
+        setMacOSDarkTheme()
+    }
+}
+
+func configureWindows(app *application.App) {
+    app.Logger.Info("Configuring for Windows")
+    
+    // Windows-specific configuration
+    // Set up Windows-style menus, key bindings, etc.
+}
+
+func configureLinux(app *application.App) {
+    app.Logger.Info("Configuring for Linux")
+    
+    // Linux-specific configuration
+    // Adapt to different desktop environments
+}
+```
+
+## Debug Mode Handling
+
+### Development vs Production
+
+Use debug mode information to enable development features:
+
+```go
+func setupApplicationMode(app *application.App) {
+    envInfo := app.Env.Info()
+    
+    if envInfo.Debug {
+        app.Logger.Info("Running in debug mode")
+        setupDevelopmentFeatures(app)
+    } else {
+        app.Logger.Info("Running in production mode")
+        setupProductionFeatures(app)
+    }
+}
+
+func setupDevelopmentFeatures(app *application.App) {
+    // Enable development-only features
+    menu := app.Menu.New()
+    
+    // Add development menu
+    devMenu := menu.AddSubmenu("Development")
+    devMenu.Add("Reload Application").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        // Reload the application
+        window := app.Window.Current()
+        if window != nil {
+            window.Reload()
+        }
+    })
+    
+    devMenu.Add("Open DevTools").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        window := app.Window.Current()
+        if window != nil {
+            window.OpenDevTools()
+        }
+    })
+    
+    devMenu.Add("Show Environment").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        showEnvironmentDialog(app)
+    })
+}
+
+func setupProductionFeatures(app *application.App) {
+    // Production-only features
+    // Disable debug logging, enable analytics, etc.
+}
+```
+
+## Environment Information Dialog
+
+### Display System Information
+
+Create a dialog showing environment information:
+
+```go
+func showEnvironmentDialog(app *application.App) {
+    envInfo := app.Env.Info()
+    
+    details := fmt.Sprintf(`Environment Information:
+
+Operating System: %s
+Architecture: %s
+Debug Mode: %t
+
+Dark Mode: %t
+
+Platform Information:`, 
+        envInfo.OS,

+        envInfo.Debug,
+        app.Env.IsDarkMode())
+    
+    // Add platform-specific details
+    for key, value := range envInfo.PlatformInfo {
+        details += fmt.Sprintf("\n%s: %v", key, value)
+    }
+    
+    if envInfo.OSInfo != nil {
+        details += fmt.Sprintf("\n\nOS Details:\nName: %s\nVersion: %s", 
+            envInfo.OSInfo.Name, 
+            envInfo.OSInfo.Version)
+    }
+

+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Cache Environment Information**: Environment info rarely changes during runtime:
+   ```go
+   type App struct {
+       envInfo *application.EnvironmentInfo
+   }
+   
+   func (a *App) getEnvInfo() application.EnvironmentInfo {
+       if a.envInfo == nil {
+           info := a.app.Env.Info()
+           a.envInfo = &info
+       }
+       return *a.envInfo
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Handle Theme Changes**: Listen for system theme changes:
+   ```go
+   app.OnApplicationEvent(events.Common.ThemeChanged, func(event *application.ApplicationEvent) {
+       updateTheme(app.Env.IsDarkMode())
+   })
+   ```
+
+3. **Graceful File Manager Failures**: Always handle file manager errors:
+   ```go
+   func openFileManagerSafely(app *application.App, path string) {
+       err := app.Env.OpenFileManager(path, false)
+       if err != nil {
+           // Provide fallback or user notification
+           app.Logger.Warn("Could not open file manager", "path", path)
+       }
+   }
+   ```
+
+4. **Platform-Specific Features**: Use environment info to enable platform features:
+   ```go
+   envInfo := app.Env.Info()
+   if envInfo.OS == "darwin" {
+       // Enable macOS-specific features
+   }
+   ```
+

+import { Tabs, TabItem } from "@astrojs/starlight/components";
+
+Wails provides a powerful key binding system that allows you to register global keyboard shortcuts that work across all windows in your application. This enables users to quickly access functionality without navigating through menus.
+
+## Accessing the Key Binding Manager
+
+The key binding manager is accessed through the `KeyBindings` property on your application instance:
+
+```go
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Name: "Keyboard Shortcuts Demo",
+})
+
+// Access the key binding manager
+keyBindings := app.KeyBinding
+```
+
+## Adding Key Bindings
+
+### Basic Key Binding
+
+Register a simple keyboard shortcut:
+
+```go
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+S", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // Handle save action
+    app.Logger.Info("Save shortcut triggered")
+    // Perform save operation...
+})
+```
+
+### Multiple Key Bindings
+
+Register multiple shortcuts for common operations:
+
+```go
+// File operations
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+N", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // New file
+    window.EmitEvent("file:new", nil)
+})
+
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+O", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // Open file
+    dialog := app.Dialog.OpenFile()
+    if file, err := dialog.PromptForSingleSelection(); err == nil {
+        window.EmitEvent("file:open", file)
+    }
+})
+
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+S", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // Save file
+    window.EmitEvent("file:save", nil)
+})
+
+// Edit operations
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+Z", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // Undo
+    window.EmitEvent("edit:undo", nil)
+})
+
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+Y", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // Redo (Windows/Linux)
+    window.EmitEvent("edit:redo", nil)
+})
+
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+Shift+Z", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // Redo (macOS)
+    window.EmitEvent("edit:redo", nil)
+})
+```
+
+## Key Binding Accelerators
+
+### Accelerator Format
+
+Key bindings use a standard accelerator format with modifiers and keys:
+
+```go
+// Modifier keys
+"Ctrl+S"        // Control + S
+"Cmd+S"         // Command + S (macOS)
+"Alt+F4"        // Alt + F4
+"Shift+Ctrl+Z"  // Shift + Control + Z
+
+// Function keys
+"F1"            // F1 key
+"Ctrl+F5"       // Control + F5
+
+// Special keys
+"Escape"        // Escape key
+"Enter"         // Enter key
+"Space"         // Spacebar
+"Tab"           // Tab key
+"Backspace"     // Backspace key
+"Delete"        // Delete key
+
+// Arrow keys
+"Up"            // Up arrow
+"Down"          // Down arrow
+"Left"          // Left arrow
+"Right"         // Right arrow
+```
+
+### Platform-Specific Accelerators
+
+Handle platform differences for common shortcuts:
+
+```go
+import "runtime"
+
+// Cross-platform save shortcut
+if runtime.GOOS == "darwin" {
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+S", saveHandler)
+} else {
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+S", saveHandler)
+}
+
+// Or register both
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+S", saveHandler)
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+S", saveHandler)
+```
+
+## Managing Key Bindings
+
+### Removing Key Bindings
+
+Remove key bindings when they're no longer needed:
+
+```go
+// Remove a specific key binding
+app.KeyBinding.Remove("Ctrl+S")
+
+// Example: Temporary key binding for a modal
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Escape", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // Close modal
+    window.EmitEvent("modal:close", nil)
+    // Remove this temporary binding
+    app.KeyBinding.Remove("Escape")
+})
+```
+
+### Getting All Key Bindings
+
+Retrieve all registered key bindings:
+
+```go
+allBindings := app.KeyBinding.GetAll()
+for _, binding := range allBindings {
+    app.Logger.Info("Key binding", "accelerator", binding.Accelerator)
+}
+```
+
+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Context-Aware Key Bindings
+
+Make key bindings context-aware by checking application state:
+
+```go
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+S", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // Check current application state
+    if isEditMode() {
+        // Save document
+        saveDocument()
+    } else if isInSettings() {
+        // Save settings
+        saveSettings()
+    } else {
+        app.Logger.Info("Save not available in current context")
+    }
+})
+```
+
+### Window-Specific Actions
+
+Key bindings receive the active window, allowing window-specific behavior:
+
+```go
+app.KeyBinding.Add("F11", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // Toggle fullscreen for the active window
+    if window.Fullscreen() {
+        window.SetFullscreen(false)
+    } else {
+        window.SetFullscreen(true)
+    }
+})
+
+app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+W", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+    // Close the active window
+    window.Close()
+})
+```
+
+### Dynamic Key Binding Management
+
+Dynamically add and remove key bindings based on application state:
+
+```go
+func enableEditMode() {
+    // Add edit-specific key bindings
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+B", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+        window.EmitEvent("format:bold", nil)
+    })
+    
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+I", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+        window.EmitEvent("format:italic", nil)
+    })
+    
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+U", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+        window.EmitEvent("format:underline", nil)
+    })
+}
+
+func disableEditMode() {
+    // Remove edit-specific key bindings
+    app.KeyBinding.Remove("Ctrl+B")
+    app.KeyBinding.Remove("Ctrl+I")
+    app.KeyBinding.Remove("Ctrl+U")
+}
+```
+
+## Platform Considerations
+
+<Tabs>
+  <TabItem label="macOS" icon="fa-brands:apple">
+    
+    On macOS:
+    
+    - Use `Cmd` instead of `Ctrl` for standard shortcuts
+    - `Cmd+Q` is typically reserved for quitting the application
+    - `Cmd+H` hides the application
+    - `Cmd+M` minimizes windows
+    - Consider standard macOS keyboard shortcuts
+    
+    Common macOS patterns:
+    ```go
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+N", newFileHandler)      // New
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+O", openFileHandler)     // Open
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+S", saveFileHandler)     // Save
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+Z", undoHandler)         // Undo
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+Shift+Z", redoHandler)   // Redo
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+C", copyHandler)         // Copy
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+V", pasteHandler)        // Paste
+    ```
+    
+  </TabItem>
+  
+  <TabItem label="Windows" icon="fa-brands:windows">
+    
+    On Windows:
+    
+    - Use `Ctrl` for standard shortcuts
+    - `Alt+F4` closes applications
+    - `F1` typically opens help
+    - Consider Windows keyboard conventions
+    
+    Common Windows patterns:
+    ```go
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+N", newFileHandler)     // New
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+O", openFileHandler)    // Open
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+S", saveFileHandler)    // Save
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+Z", undoHandler)        // Undo
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+Y", redoHandler)        // Redo
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+C", copyHandler)        // Copy
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+V", pasteHandler)       // Paste
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("F1", helpHandler)            // Help
+    ```
+    
+  </TabItem>
+  
+  <TabItem label="Linux" icon="fa-brands:linux">
+    
+    On Linux:
+    
+    - Generally follows Windows conventions with `Ctrl`
+    - May vary by desktop environment
+    - Consider GNOME/KDE standard shortcuts
+    - Some desktop environments reserve certain shortcuts
+    
+    Common Linux patterns:
+    ```go
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+N", newFileHandler)     // New
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+O", openFileHandler)    // Open
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+S", saveFileHandler)    // Save
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+Z", undoHandler)        // Undo
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+Shift+Z", redoHandler)  // Redo
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+C", copyHandler)        // Copy
+    app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+V", pasteHandler)       // Paste
+    ```
+    
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use Standard Shortcuts**: Follow platform conventions for common operations:
+   ```go
+   // Cross-platform save
+   if runtime.GOOS == "darwin" {
+       app.KeyBinding.Add("Cmd+S", saveHandler)
+   } else {
+       app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+S", saveHandler)
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Provide Visual Feedback**: Let users know when shortcuts are triggered:
+   ```go
+   app.KeyBinding.Add("Ctrl+S", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+       saveDocument()
+       // Show brief notification
+       window.EmitEvent("notification:show", "Document saved")
+   })
+   ```
+
+3. **Handle Conflicts**: Be careful not to override important system shortcuts:
+   ```go
+   // Avoid overriding system shortcuts like:
+   // Ctrl+Alt+Del (Windows)
+   // Cmd+Space (macOS Spotlight)
+   // Alt+Tab (Window switching)
+   ```
+
+4. **Document Shortcuts**: Provide help or documentation for available shortcuts:
+   ```go
+   app.KeyBinding.Add("F1", func(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+       // Show help dialog with available shortcuts
+       showKeyboardShortcutsHelp()
+   })
+   ```
+
+5. **Clean Up**: Remove temporary key bindings when they're no longer needed:
+   ```go
+   func enterEditMode() {
+       app.KeyBinding.Add("Escape", exitEditModeHandler)
+   }
+   
+   func exitEditModeHandler(window *application.WebviewWindow) {
+       exitEditMode()
+       app.KeyBinding.Remove("Escape") // Clean up temporary binding
+   }
+   ```
+
+## Complete Example
+
+Here's a complete example of a text editor with keyboard shortcuts:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "runtime"
+    "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"

+
+The Wails v3 Manager API provides an organized and discoverable way to access application functionality through focused manager structs. This new API structure groups related methods together while maintaining full backward compatibility with the traditional App API.
+
+## Overview
+
+The Manager API organizes application functionality into eleven focused areas:
+
+- **`app.Window`** - Window creation, management, and callbacks
+- **`app.ContextMenu`** - Context menu registration and management  
+- **`app.KeyBinding`** - Global key binding management
+- **`app.Browser`** - Browser integration (opening URLs and files)
+- **`app.Env`** - Environment information and system state
+- **`app.Dialog`** - File and message dialog operations
+- **`app.Event`** - Custom event handling and application events
+- **`app.Menu`** - Application menu management
+- **`app.Screen`** - Screen management and coordinate transformations
+- **`app.Clipboard`** - Clipboard text operations
+- **`app.SystemTray`** - System tray icon creation and management
+
+## Benefits

+
+## Introduction
+
+Wails provides a comprehensive cross-platform notification system for desktop applications. This service allows you to display native system notifications, with support for interactive elements like action buttons and text input fields.
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+### Creating the Service
+
+First, initialize the notifications service:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+import "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/services/notifications"
+
+// Create a new notification service
+notifier := notifications.New()
+
+//Register the service with the application
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Services: []application.Service{
+        application.NewService(notifier),
+    },
+})
+```
+
+## Notification Authorization
+
+Notifications on macOS require user authorization. Request and check authorization:
+
+```go
+authorized, err := notifier.CheckNotificationAuthorization()
+if err != nil {
+    // Handle authorization error
+}
+if authorized {
+    // Send notifications
+} else {
+    // Request authorization
+    authorized, err = notifier.RequestNotificationAuthorization()
+}
+```
+On Windows and Linux this always returns `true`.
+
+## Notification Types
+
+### Basic Notifications
+
+Send a basic notification with a unique id, title, optional subtitle (macOS and Linux), and body text to users:
+
+```go
+notifier.SendNotification(notifications.NotificationOptions{
+    ID: "unique-id",
+    Title: "New Calendar Invite",
+    Subtitle: "From: Jane Doe", // Optional
+    Body: "Tap to view the event",
+})
+
+```
+
+### Interactive Notifications
+Send a notification with action buttons and text inputs. These notifications require a notification category to be resgistered first:
+
+```go
+// Define a unique category id
+categoryID := "unique-category-id"
+
+// Define a category with actions
+category := notifications.NotificationCategory{
+    ID: categoryID,
+    Actions: []notifications.NotificationAction{
+        {
+            ID:    "OPEN", 
+            Title: "Open",
+        },
+        {
+            ID:          "ARCHIVE", 
+            Title:       "Archive", 
+            Destructive: true,  /* macOS-specific */
+        },
+    },
+    HasReplyField:    true,
+    ReplyPlaceholder: "message...",
+    ReplyButtonTitle: "Reply",
+}
+
+// Register the category
+notifier.RegisterNotificationCategory(category)
+
+// Send an interactive notification with the actions registered in the provided category
+notifier.SendNotificationWithActions(notifications.NotificationOptions{
+    ID:         "unique-id",
+    Title:      "New Message",
+    Subtitle:   "From: Jane Doe",
+    Body:       "Are you able to make it?",
+    CategoryID: categoryID,
+})
+```
+
+## Notification Responses
+
+Process user interactions with notifications:
+
+```go
+notifier.OnNotificationResponse(func(result notifications.NotificationResult) {
+    response := result.Response
+    fmt.Printf("Notification %s was actioned with: %s\n", response.ID, response.ActionIdentifier)
+
+    if response.ActionIdentifier == "TEXT_REPLY" {
+        fmt.Printf("User replied: %s\n", response.UserText)
+    }
+
+    if data, ok := response.UserInfo["sender"].(string); ok {
+        fmt.Printf("Original sender: %s\n", data)
+    }
+
+    // Emit an event to the frontend
+    app.Event.Emit("notification", result.Response)
+})
+```
+
+## Notification Customisation
+
+### Custom Metadata
+
+Basic and interactive notifications can include custom data:
+
+```go
+notifier.SendNotification(notifications.NotificationOptions{
+    ID: "unique-id",
+    Title: "New Calendar Invite",
+    Subtitle: "From: Jane Doe", // Optional
+    Body: "Tap to view the event",
+    Data: map[string]interface{}{
+        "sender": "jane.doe@example.com",
+        "timestamp": "2025-03-10T15:30:00Z",
+    }
+})
+
+```
+
+## Platform Considerations
+
+<Tabs>
+  <TabItem label="macOS" icon="fa-brands:apple">
+    
+    On macOS, notifications:
+    
+    - Require user authorization
+    - Require the app to be notorized for distribution
+    - Use system-standard notification appearances
+    - Support `subtitle`
+    - Support user text input
+    - Support the `Destructive` action option
+    - Automatically handle dark/light mode
+    
+  </TabItem>
+  
+  <TabItem label="Windows" icon="fa-brands:windows">
+    
+    On Windows, notifications:
+    
+    - Use Windows system toast styles
+    - Adapt to Windows theme settings
+    - Support user text input
+    - Support high DPI displays
+    - Do not support `subtitle`
+    
+  </TabItem>
+  
+  <TabItem label="Linux" icon="fa-brands:linux">
+    
+    On Linux, dialog behaviour depends on the desktop environment:
+    
+    - Use native notifications when available
+    - Follow desktop environment theme
+    - Position according to desktop environment rules
+    - Support `subtitle`
+    - Do not support user text input
+    
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. Check and request for authorization:
+   - macOS requires user authorization
+
+2. Provide clear and concise notifications:
+   - Use descriptive titles, subtitles, text, and action titles
+
+3. Handle dialog responses appropriately:
+   - Check for errors in notification responses
+   - Provide feedback for user actions
+
+4. Consider platform conventions:
+   - Follow platform-specific notification patterns
+   - Respect system settings

+
+Wails provides comprehensive screen management capabilities for multi-monitor setups and high-DPI displays. The ScreenManager API allows you to query screen information, handle coordinate transformations, and manage window placement across multiple displays.
+
+## Accessing the Screen Manager
+
+The screen manager is accessed through the `Screens` property on your application instance:
+
+```go
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Name: "Multi-Monitor App",
+})
+
+// Access the screen manager
+screens := app.Screen
+```
+
+## Getting Screen Information
+
+### Get All Screens
+
+Retrieve information about all connected displays:
+
+```go
+allScreens := app.Screen.GetAll()
+for i, screen := range allScreens {
+    app.Logger.Info("Screen info",
+        "index", i,
+        "name", screen.Name,
+        "id", screen.ID,
+        "primary", screen.IsPrimary,
+        "width", screen.Size.Width,
+        "height", screen.Size.Height,
+        "scaleFactor", screen.ScaleFactor,
+    )
+}
+```
+
+### Get Primary Screen
+
+Get the primary (main) display:
+
+```go
+primaryScreen := app.Screen.GetPrimary()
+if primaryScreen != nil {
+    app.Logger.Info("Primary screen",
+        "name", primaryScreen.Name,
+        "resolution", fmt.Sprintf("%dx%d", primaryScreen.Size.Width, primaryScreen.Size.Height),
+        "workArea", primaryScreen.WorkArea,
+    )
+}
+```
+
+## Screen Properties
+
+### Screen Structure
+
+Each screen provides comprehensive information about the display:
+
+```go
+type Screen struct {
+    ID               string  // Unique identifier for the display
+    Name             string  // Display name (e.g., "Built-in Retina Display")
+    ScaleFactor      float32 // DPI scale factor (1.0 = 96 DPI, 2.0 = 192 DPI)
+    X                int     // X coordinate of top-left corner
+    Y                int     // Y coordinate of top-left corner
+    Size             Size    // Logical size of the display
+    Bounds           Rect    // Display bounds in logical coordinates
+    PhysicalBounds   Rect    // Physical bounds before scaling
+    WorkArea         Rect    // Available area (excluding taskbars/docks)
+    PhysicalWorkArea Rect    // Physical work area
+    IsPrimary        bool    // Whether this is the primary display
+    Rotation         float32 // Display rotation in degrees
+}
+```
+
+### Coordinate Systems
+
+Wails handles two coordinate systems:
+
+- **Logical (DIP)**: Device-independent pixels, scaled for readability
+- **Physical**: Actual pixel coordinates on the hardware
+
+```go
+screen := app.Screen.GetPrimary()
+
+// Logical coordinates (what you typically work with)
+logicalWidth := screen.Size.Width
+logicalHeight := screen.Size.Height
+
+// Physical coordinates (actual hardware pixels)
+physicalWidth := screen.PhysicalBounds.Width
+physicalHeight := screen.PhysicalBounds.Height
+
+// Scale factor relationship
+scaleFactor := screen.ScaleFactor // e.g., 2.0 for Retina displays
+// physicalWidth = logicalWidth * scaleFactor
+```
+
+## Coordinate Transformations
+
+### Point Transformations
+
+Convert coordinates between logical and physical systems:
+
+```go
+// Convert logical point to physical coordinates
+logicalPoint := application.Point{X: 100, Y: 50}
+physicalPoint := app.Screen.DipToPhysicalPoint(logicalPoint)
+
+// Convert physical point to logical coordinates
+physicalPoint2 := application.Point{X: 200, Y: 100}
+logicalPoint2 := app.Screen.PhysicalToDipPoint(physicalPoint2)
+
+app.Logger.Info("Coordinate conversion",
+    "logical", logicalPoint,
+    "physical", physicalPoint,
+    "backToLogical", logicalPoint2,
+)
+```
+
+### Rectangle Transformations
+
+Convert rectangular areas between coordinate systems:
+
+```go
+// Define a logical rectangle
+logicalRect := application.Rect{
+    X: 100, Y: 100,
+    Width: 400, Height: 300,
+}
+
+// Convert to physical coordinates
+physicalRect := app.Screen.DipToPhysicalRect(logicalRect)
+
+// Convert back to logical coordinates
+logicalRect2 := app.Screen.PhysicalToDipRect(physicalRect)
+
+app.Logger.Info("Rectangle conversion",
+    "original", logicalRect,
+    "physical", physicalRect,
+    "converted", logicalRect2,
+)
+```
+
+## Screen Detection and Positioning
+
+### Find Screen by Point
+
+Determine which screen contains a specific point:
+
+```go
+// Find screen containing a logical point
+point := application.Point{X: 500, Y: 300}
+screen := app.Screen.ScreenNearestDipPoint(point)
+
+// Find screen containing a physical point
+physicalPoint := application.Point{X: 1000, Y: 600}
+screenPhys := app.Screen.ScreenNearestPhysicalPoint(physicalPoint)
+
+app.Logger.Info("Screen detection",
+    "point", point,
+    "screen", screen.Name,
+    "physicalPoint", physicalPoint,
+    "physicalScreen", screenPhys.Name,
+)
+```
+
+### Find Screen by Rectangle
+
+Determine which screen best contains or overlaps with a rectangle:
+
+```go
+// Find screen for a logical rectangle
+rect := application.Rect{X: 200, Y: 150, Width: 800, Height: 600}
+screen := app.Screen.ScreenNearestDipRect(rect)
+
+// Find screen for a physical rectangle
+physicalRect := application.Rect{X: 400, Y: 300, Width: 1600, Height: 1200}
+screenPhys := app.Screen.ScreenNearestPhysicalRect(physicalRect)
+
+app.Logger.Info("Screen detection by area",
+    "rect", rect,
+    "screen", screen.Name,
+    "physicalRect", physicalRect,
+    "physicalScreen", screenPhys.Name,
+)
+```
+
+## Window Positioning
+
+### Position Window on Specific Screen
+
+Place a window on a particular screen:
+
+```go
+func positionWindowOnScreen(window *application.WebviewWindow, targetScreen *application.Screen) {
+    // Calculate center position on target screen
+    centerX := targetScreen.WorkArea.X + (targetScreen.WorkArea.Width-800)/2
+    centerY := targetScreen.WorkArea.Y + (targetScreen.WorkArea.Height-600)/2
+    
+    // Position the window
+    window.SetPosition(centerX, centerY)
+    window.SetSize(800, 600)
+}
+
+// Usage
+primaryScreen := app.Screen.GetPrimary()
+if primaryScreen != nil {
+    window := app.Window.New()
+    positionWindowOnScreen(window, primaryScreen)
+}
+```
+
+### Multi-Monitor Window Management
+
+Manage windows across multiple screens:
+
+```go
+func distributeWindowsAcrossScreens(app *application.App) {
+    screens := app.Screen.GetAll()
+    if len(screens) == 0 {
+        return
+    }
+    
+    // Create one window per screen
+    for i, screen := range screens {
+        window := app.Window.NewWithOptions(application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+            Name:   fmt.Sprintf("window-%d", i),
+            Title:  fmt.Sprintf("Window on %s", screen.Name),
+            Width:  800,
+            Height: 600,
+        })
+        
+        // Position window in center of screen's work area
+        x := screen.WorkArea.X + (screen.WorkArea.Width-800)/2
+        y := screen.WorkArea.Y + (screen.WorkArea.Height-600)/2
+        window.SetPosition(x, y)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## High-DPI Support
+
+### Handling Different Scale Factors
+
+Properly handle displays with different DPI settings:
+
+```go
+func analyzeDisplayScaling(app *application.App) {
+    screens := app.Screen.GetAll()
+    
+    for _, screen := range screens {
+        scaleFactor := screen.ScaleFactor
+        
+        switch {
+        case scaleFactor == 1.0:
+            app.Logger.Info("Standard DPI display", "screen", screen.Name)
+        case scaleFactor == 1.25:
+            app.Logger.Info("125% scaled display", "screen", screen.Name)
+        case scaleFactor == 1.5:
+            app.Logger.Info("150% scaled display", "screen", screen.Name)
+        case scaleFactor == 2.0:
+            app.Logger.Info("High DPI display (200%)", "screen", screen.Name)
+        default:
+            app.Logger.Info("Custom scale display",
+                "screen", screen.Name,
+                "scale", scaleFactor,
+            )
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### DPI-Aware Measurements
+
+Convert measurements appropriately for different displays:
+
+```go
+func getDPIAwareSizes(screen *application.Screen, logicalSize int) (int, int) {
+    // Physical size in actual pixels
+    physicalSize := int(float32(logicalSize) * screen.ScaleFactor)
+    
+    return logicalSize, physicalSize
+}
+
+// Usage
+screen := app.Screen.GetPrimary()
+logicalWidth, physicalWidth := getDPIAwareSizes(screen, 400)
+app.Logger.Info("Size conversion",
+    "logical", logicalWidth,
+    "physical", physicalWidth,
+    "scaleFactor", screen.ScaleFactor,
+)
+```
+
+## Platform Considerations
+
+<Tabs>
+  <TabItem label="macOS" icon="fa-brands:apple">
+    
+    On macOS:
+    
+    - Screen coordinates start from bottom-left (different from Windows/Linux)
+    - Built-in Retina displays typically have 2.0 scale factor
+    - External displays may have different scale factors
+    - Mission Control and Spaces affect screen management
+    - Screen arrangement can be configured in System Preferences
+    
+    ```go
+    // macOS-specific screen handling
+    if runtime.GOOS == "darwin" {
+        // Handle coordinate system differences
+        screen := app.Screen.GetPrimary()

+  </TabItem>
+  
+  <TabItem label="Windows" icon="fa-brands:windows">
+    
+    On Windows:
+    
+    - Screen coordinates start from top-left
+    - Scale factors vary: 100%, 125%, 150%, 175%, 200%, etc.
+    - Multiple monitor configurations are common

+  <TabItem label="Linux" icon="fa-brands:linux">
+    
+    On Linux:
+    
+    - Screen coordinates start from top-left
+    - Scale factors depend on desktop environment
+    - X11 and Wayland have different behaviors
+    - Panel/dock configurations affect work areas
+    - Multi-monitor support varies by environment

+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Always Check for Screens**: Ensure screens are available before using them:
+   ```go
+   screens := app.Screen.GetAll()
+   if len(screens) == 0 {
+       app.Logger.Warn("No screens detected")
+       return
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Use Work Areas**: Position windows within work areas to avoid taskbars/docks:
+   ```go
+   screen := app.Screen.GetPrimary()
+   workArea := screen.WorkArea
+   // Position within workArea, not full screen bounds
+   ```
+
+3. **Handle Scale Factors**: Always consider DPI scaling for proper sizing:
+   ```go
+   screen := app.Screen.GetPrimary()
+   if screen.ScaleFactor > 1.0 {
+       // Adjust UI elements for high-DPI displays
+   }
+   ```
+
+4. **Monitor Screen Changes**: Listen for screen configuration changes:
+   ```go
+   app.OnApplicationEvent(events.Common.SystemDisplayChanged, func(event *application.ApplicationEvent) {
+       // Refresh screen information
+       screens := app.Screen.GetAll()
+       // Reposition windows if needed
+   })
+   ```
+

+
+Wails provides a comprehensive window management system through the WindowManager API. This allows you to create, manage, and control multiple windows in your application.
+
+## Accessing the Window Manager
+
+The window manager is accessed through the `Windows` property on your application instance:
+
+```go
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Name: "Multi-Window App",
+})
+
+// Access the window manager
+windowManager := app.Window
+```
+
+## Creating Windows
+
+### Basic Window Creation
+
+Create a new window with default settings:
+
+```go
+window := app.Window.New()
+```
+
+### Window Creation with Options
+
+Create a window with custom configuration:
+
+```go
+window := app.Window.NewWithOptions(application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+    Title:  "Custom Window",
+    Width:  800,
+    Height: 600,
+    Mac: application.MacOptions{
+        TitleBarAppearsTransparent: true,
+    },
+    Windows: application.WindowsOptions{
+        DisableWindowIcon: true,
+    },
+    Linux: application.LinuxOptions{
+        Icon: []byte{/* icon data */},
+    },
+})
+```
+
+## Finding Windows
+
+### Get Window by Name
+
+Retrieve a window using its name:
+
+```go
+window, exists := app.Window.GetByName("main-window")
+if exists {
+    // Work with the window
+    window.SetTitle("Found Window")
+}
+```
+
+### Get Window by ID
+
+Retrieve a window using its unique ID:
+
+```go
+window, exists := app.Window.GetByID(123)
+if exists {
+    // Work with the window
+}
+```
+
+### Get Current Window
+
+Get the currently active/focused window:
+
+```go
+// Get current window (may be nil)
+currentWindow := app.Window.Current()
+if currentWindow != nil {
+    currentWindow.SetTitle("Active Window")
+}
+
+// Get current window with existence check
+currentWindow, exists := app.Window.GetCurrent()
+if exists {
+    currentWindow.SetTitle("Active Window")
+}
+```
+
+### Get All Windows
+
+Retrieve all windows managed by the application:
+
+```go
+allWindows := app.Window.GetAll()
+for i, window := range allWindows {
+    window.SetTitle(fmt.Sprintf("Window %d", i+1))
+}
+```
+
+## Window Lifecycle Management
+
+### Window Creation Callbacks
+
+Register callbacks to be notified when new windows are created:
+
+```go
+app.Window.OnCreate(func(window application.Window) {
+    app.Logger.Info("New window created", "name", window.Name())
+    
+    // Configure the window
+    if webviewWindow, ok := window.(*application.WebviewWindow); ok {
+        webviewWindow.SetMinSize(400, 300)
+    }
+})
+```
+
+### Removing Windows
+
+Remove windows from the manager:
+
+```go
+// Remove by ID
+app.Window.Remove(windowID)
+
+// Remove by name
+removed := app.Window.RemoveByName("window-name")
+if removed {
+    app.Logger.Info("Window removed successfully")
+}
+```
+
+## Window Types
+
+### WebView Windows
+
+The primary window type in Wails v3 is the WebView window, which embeds a web browser:
+
+```go
+window := app.Window.New()
+
+// WebView-specific operations
+window.SetURL("https://example.com")
+window.SetHTML("<h1>Hello World</h1>")
+window.Reload()
+```
+
+### Window Interface
+
+All windows implement the `Window` interface, providing common functionality:
+
+```go
+type Window interface {
+    ID() uint
+    Name() string
+    SetTitle(title string)
+    SetSize(width, height int)
+    SetPosition(x, y int)
+    Show()
+    Hide()
+    Close()
+    // ... other methods
+}
+```
+
+## Advanced Window Management

+### Multi-Window Applications
+
+Create and manage multiple windows for complex applications:
+
+```go
+// Create main window
+mainWindow := app.Window.NewWithOptions(application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+    Title:  "Main Application",
+    Width:  1200,
+    Height: 800,
+})
+
+// Create settings window
+settingsWindow := app.Window.NewWithOptions(application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+    Title:  "Settings",
+    Width:  600,
+    Height: 400,
+    WindowState: application.WindowStateHidden, // Start hidden
+})
+
+// Show settings when needed
+settingsWindow.Show()
+```
+
+### Window Communication
+
+Windows can communicate through events:
+
+```go
+// In window A
+app.Event.Emit("data-updated", newData)
+
+// In window B
+app.Event.On("data-updated", func(event *application.CustomEvent) {
+    // Update UI with new data
+    data := event.Data
+    // Process data...
+})
+```

+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Window Naming**: Always provide meaningful names for windows to make them easy to find:
+   ```go
+   window := app.Window.NewWithOptions(application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+       Name: "settings-window",
+       Title: "Application Settings",
+   })
+   ```
+
+2. **Resource Management**: Properly clean up windows when they're no longer needed:
+   ```go
+   window.OnEvent(events.Common.WindowClosing, func(e *application.WindowEvent) {
+       app.Window.Remove(window.ID())
+   })
+   ```
+
+3. **Window State**: Consider starting secondary windows as hidden and showing them when needed:
+   ```go
+   window := app.Window.NewWithOptions(application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+       WindowState: application.WindowStateHidden,
+   })
+   ```
+
+4. **Error Handling**: Always check if windows exist before using them:
+   ```go
+   if window, exists := app.Window.GetByName("main"); exists {
+       window.SetTitle("New Title")
+   }
+   ```
+
+## Complete Example
+
+Here's a complete example of a multi-window application:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    app := application.New(application.Options{
+        Name: "Multi-Window Demo",
+    })
+
+    // Create main window
+    mainWindow := app.Window.NewWithOptions(application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+        Name:   "main",
+        Title:  "Main Window",
+        Width:  800,
+        Height: 600,
+    })
+
+    // Create hidden settings window
+    settingsWindow := app.Window.NewWithOptions(application.WebviewWindowOptions{
+        Name:        "settings",
+        Title:       "Settings",
+        Width:       400,
+        Height:      300,
+        WindowState: application.WindowStateHidden,
+    })
+
+    // Setup window creation callback
+    app.Window.OnCreate(func(window application.Window) {
+        app.Logger.Info("Window created", "name", window.Name())
+    })
+
+    // Setup menu to show settings
+    menu := app.Menu.New()
+    menu.AddRole(application.AppMenu)
+    
+    settingsMenu := menu.AddSubmenu("Settings")
+    settingsMenu.Add("Open Settings").OnClick(func(ctx *application.Context) {
+        if window, exists := app.Window.GetByName("settings"); exists {
+            window.Show()
+            window.Focus()
+        }
+    })
+
+    app.Menu.Set(menu)
+
+    err := app.Run()
+    if err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+:::tip[Pro Tip]
+Use the window manager's callback system to implement application-wide window policies, such as automatically setting minimum sizes or configuring window behaviors.
+:::
+
+:::danger[Warning]
+Always check if windows exist before performing operations on them, as they may have been closed or removed by the user or system.

+8. ## Supporting dynamic configurations
+
+    In the example above we used a hardcoded route `/qrservice`.
+    If you edit `main.go` and change the `Route` option without updating `main.js`,
+    the application will break:
+
+    ```go title="main.go" ins={3}
+            // ...
+                application.NewService(NewQRService(), application.ServiceOptions{
+                    Route: "/services/qr",
+                }),
+            // ...
+    ```
+
+    Hardcoded routes can be good for many applications,
+    but if you need more flexibility, method bindings and HTTP handlers
+    can work together to improve the development experience.
+
+    The `ServiceStartup` Lifecycle method provides access to service options at startup,
+    and a custom method can be used to announce the configured route to the frontend.
+
+    First, implement the `ServiceStartup` interface and add a new `URL` method:
+
+    ```go title="qrservice.go" ins={4,6,10,15,23-27,46-55}
+    package main
+
+    import (
+        "context"
+        "net/http"
+        "net/url"
+        "strconv"
+
+        "github.com/skip2/go-qrcode"
+        "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+    )
+
+    // QRService handles QR code generation
+    type QRService struct {
+        route string
+    }
+
+    // NewQRService creates a new QR service
+    func NewQRService() *QRService {
+        return &QRService{}
+    }
+
+    // ServiceStartup runs at application startup.
+    func (s *QRService) ServiceStartup(ctx context.Context, options application.ServiceOptions) error {
+        s.route = options.Route
+        return nil
+    }
+
+    // Generate creates a QR code from the given text
+    func (s *QRService) Generate(text string, size int) ([]byte, error) {
+        // Generate the QR code
+        qr, err := qrcode.New(text, qrcode.Medium)
+        if err != nil {
+            return nil, err
+        }
+
+        // Convert to PNG
+        png, err := qr.PNG(size)
+        if err != nil {
+            return nil, err
+        }
+
+        return png, nil
+    }
+
+    // URL returns an URL that may be used to fetch
+    // a QR code with the given text and size.
+    // It returns an error if the HTTP handler is not available.
+    func (s *QRService) URL(text string, size int) (string, error) {
+        if s.route == "" {
+            return "", errors.New("http handler unavailable")
+        }
+
+        return fmt.Sprintf("%s?text=%s&size=%d", s.route, url.QueryEscape(text), size), nil
+    }
+
+    func (s *QRService) ServeHTTP(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+        // Extract the text parameter from the request
+        text := r.URL.Query().Get("text")
+        if text == "" {
+            http.Error(w, "Missing 'text' parameter", http.StatusBadRequest)
+            return
+        }
+        // Extract Size parameter from the request
+        sizeText := r.URL.Query().Get("size")
+        if sizeText == "" {
+            sizeText = "256"
+        }
+        size, err := strconv.Atoi(sizeText)
+        if err != nil {
+            http.Error(w, "Invalid 'size' parameter", http.StatusBadRequest)
+            return
+        }
+
+        // Generate the QR code
+        qrCodeData, err := s.Generate(text, size)
+        if err != nil {
+            http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusInternalServerError)
+            return
+        }
+
+        // Write the QR code data to the response
+        w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "image/png")
+        w.Write(qrCodeData)
+    }
+    ```
+
+    Now update `main.js` to use the `URL` method in place of a hardcoded path:
+
+    ```js title="frontend/src/main.js" ins={1,11-12}
+    import { QRService } from "./bindings/changeme";
+
+    async function generateQR() {
+        const text = document.getElementById('text').value;
+        if (!text) {
+            alert('Please enter some text');
+            return;
+        }
+
+        const img = document.getElementById('qrcode');
+        // Invoke the URL method to obtain an URL for the given text.
+        img.src = await QRService.URL(text, 256);
+    }
+
+    export function initializeQRGenerator() {
+        const button = document.getElementById('generateButton');
+        if (button) {
+            button.addEventListener('click', generateQR);
+        } else {
+            console.error('Generate button not found');
+        }
+    }
+    ```
+
+    It should work just like the previous example,
+    but changing the service route in `main.go`
+    will not break the frontend anymore.
+
+    :::note
+    If a Go method returns a non-nil error,
+    the promise on the JS side will reject
+    and await statements will throw an exception.

+### Changed
+
+- Update linux webkit dependency to webkit2gtk-4.1 over webkitgtk2-4.0 to support Ubuntu 24.04 LTS by [atterpac](https://github.com/atterpac) in [#3461](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/3461)
+- The bundled JS runtime script is now an ESM module: script tags importing it must have the `type="module"` attribute. By [@fbbdev](https://github.com/fbbdev) in [#3295](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/3295)
+- The `@wailsio/runtime` package does not publish its API on the `window.wails` object, and does not start the WML system. This has been done to improve encapsulation. The WML system can be started manually if desired by calling the new `WML.Enable` method. The bundled JS runtime script still performs both operations automatically. By [@fbbdev](https://github.com/fbbdev) in [#3295](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/3295)
+- The Window API module `@wailsio/runtime/src/window` now exposes the containing window object as a default export. It is not possible anymore to import individual methods through ESM named or namespace import syntax.
+- The JS window API has been updated to match the current Go `WebviewWindow` API. Some methods have changed name or prototype, specifically: `Screen` becomes `GetScreen`; `GetZoomLevel`/`SetZoomLevel` become `GetZoom`/`SetZoom`; `GetZoom`, `Width` and `Height` now return values directly instead of wrapping them within objects. By [@fbbdev](https://github.com/fbbdev) in [#3295](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/3295)
+- The binding generator now uses calls by ID by default. The `-id` CLI option has been removed. Use the `-names` CLI option to switch back to calls by name. By [@fbbdev](https://github.com/fbbdev) in [#3468](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/3468)
+- New binding code layout: output files were previously organised in folders named after their containing package; now full Go import paths are used, including the module path. By [@fbbdev](https://github.com/fbbdev) in [#3468](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/3468)
+- The struct field `application.Options.Bind` has been renamed to `application.Options.Services`. By [@fbbdev](https://github.com/fbbdev) in [#3468](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/3468)
+- New syntax for binding services: service instances must now be wrapped in a call to `application.NewService`. By [@fbbdev](https://github.com/fbbdev) in [#3468](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/3468)
+- Modified the `contentTypeSniffer` struct to include the `http.CloseNotifier` interface. Now compatible with Gin framework. By [@AnalogJ](https://github.com/AnalogJ) in [#3537](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/3537)

+- Labels are defined in `issue-labeler.yml` and `file-labeler.yml`
+- Activates when issues are opened, edited, or reopened
+
+### 2. Issue Triage Automation (`issue-triage-automation.yml`)
+- Performs automated actions for issue triage
+- Requests more info for incomplete bug reports
+- Prioritizes security issues
+- Adds issues to appropriate project boards
+
+## Configuration Files
+
+### 1. Issue Content Labeler (`issue-labeler.yml`)
+- Defines patterns to match in issue title/body
+- Categorizes by version (v2/v3), component, type, and priority
+- Customize patterns as needed for your project
+
+### 2. File Path Labeler (`file-labeler.yml`)
+- Labels PRs based on which files they modify
+- Helps identify which areas of the codebase are affected
+- Customize file patterns as needed
+
+### 3. Stale Issues Config (`stale.yml`)
+- Marks issues as stale after 45 days of inactivity
+- Closes stale issues after an additional 10 days
+- Exempts issues with important labels
+
+## Helper Scripts
+
+### 1. Issue Triage Script (`scripts/issue-triage.ps1`)

+
+2. **Adjusting Automation Thresholds**:
+   - Modify `stale.yml` to change how long issues remain active
+   - Update `issue-triage-automation.yml` to change conditions for automated actions
+
+3. **Customizing Scripts**:
+   - Update the scripts with your specific GitHub username
+   - Add additional actions based on your workflow preferences
+   - Adjust time allocations based on which tasks need more attention
+
+## Benefits
+
+This automated issue management system will:
+
+1. **Save Time**: Reduce manual triage of most common issues
+2. **Improve Consistency**: Apply the same categorization rules every time
+3. **Increase Visibility**: Clear categorization helps community members find issues
+4. **Focus Development**: Clearer separation of v2 and v3 work
+5. **Reduce Backlog**: Better management of stale issues

+# Testing the Nightly Release Workflow
+
+## Method 1: Fork Testing (Recommended)
+
+1. **Create a fork** of the Wails repository
+2. **Push the workflow** to your fork
+3. **Test manually** using `workflow_dispatch`
+4. **Verify behavior** without affecting main repo
+
+```bash
+# In your fork
+git remote add upstream https://github.com/wailsapp/wails.git
+git push origin master  # Push workflow to your fork
+```
+
+## Method 2: Local Script Testing
+
+Create local test scripts to validate the logic:
+
+```bash
+# Test changelog parsing
+./test-changelog-extraction.sh
+
+# Test version increment logic  
+./test-version-logic.sh
+
+# Test commit analysis
+./test-commit-detection.sh
+```
+
+## Method 3: Dry Run Workflow
+
+Add a `dry_run` input parameter to test without creating releases:
+
+```yaml
+workflow_dispatch:
+  inputs:
+    dry_run:
+      description: 'Run in dry-run mode (no releases created)'
+      default: true
+      type: boolean
+```
+
+## Method 4: Act (GitHub Actions Local Runner)
+
+Use `act` to run GitHub Actions locally:
+
+```bash
+brew install act
+act workflow_dispatch -W .github/workflows/nightly-releases.yml
+```
+
+## Testing Checklist
+
+- [ ] Changelog parsing works correctly
+- [ ] Version increment logic is accurate  
+- [ ] Conventional commit detection works
+- [ ] Release notes format properly
+- [ ] Authorization checks function
+- [ ] Branch handling (master vs v3-alpha)
+- [ ] Error handling and fallbacks

+# Cross-Platform Testing Guide for Wails v3
+
+This document describes the comprehensive cross-platform testing system for Wails v3 examples, supporting Mac, Linux, and Windows compilation.
+
+## Overview
+
+The testing system ensures all Wails v3 examples build successfully across all supported platforms:
+- **macOS (Darwin)** - Native compilation
+- **Windows** - Cross-compilation from any platform
+- **Linux** - Multi-architecture Docker compilation (ARM64 + x86_64)
+
+## Test Directory Structure
+
+The testing infrastructure is organized in a dedicated test directory:
+
+```bash
+v3/
+├── test/
+│   └── docker/
+│       ├── Dockerfile.linux-arm64    # ARM64 native compilation
+│       └── Dockerfile.linux-x86_64   # x86_64 native compilation
+├── Taskfile.yaml                     # Build task definitions
+└── TESTING.md                        # This documentation
+```
+
+**Benefits of the organized structure:**
+- **Separation of Concerns**: Testing files are isolated from application code
+- **Clear Organization**: All Docker-related files in one location
+- **Easier Maintenance**: Centralized testing infrastructure
+- **Better Git Management**: Clean separation for .gitignore patterns
+
+## Available Commands
+
+### 🚀 Complete Cross-Platform Testing
+```bash
+# Build all examples for ALL platforms (macOS + Windows + Linux)
+task test:examples:all
+```
+**Total: 129 builds** (43 examples × 3 platforms) + CLI code testing
+
+### All Examples (No DIR Parameter Needed)
+```bash
+# Current platform only (all 43 examples + CLI code)
+task test:examples
+
+# All examples for specific Linux architectures
+task test:examples:linux:docker           # Auto-detect architecture
+task test:examples:linux:docker:arm64     # ARM64 native
+task test:examples:linux:docker:x86_64    # x86_64 native
+
+# CLI code testing only
+task test:cli
+```
+
+### Single Example Builds (Requires DIR=example)
+```bash
+# macOS/Darwin single example
+task test:example:darwin DIR=badge
+
+# Windows cross-compilation single example
+task test:example:windows DIR=badge
+
+# Linux native builds (on Linux systems)
+task test:example:linux DIR=badge
+
+# Linux Docker builds (multi-architecture)
+task test:example:linux:docker DIR=badge          # Auto-detect architecture
+task test:example:linux:docker:arm64 DIR=badge    # ARM64 native
+task test:example:linux:docker:x86_64 DIR=badge   # x86_64 native
+```
+
+## Build Artifacts
+
+All builds generate platform-specific binaries with clear naming:
+- **macOS**: `testbuild-{example}-darwin`
+- **Windows**: `testbuild-{example}-windows.exe` 
+- **Linux**: `testbuild-{example}-linux`
+- **Linux ARM64**: `testbuild-{example}-linux-arm64` (Docker)
+- **Linux x86_64**: `testbuild-{example}-linux-x86_64` (Docker)
+
+Example outputs:
+```text
+examples/badge/testbuild-badge-darwin
+examples/badge/testbuild-badge-windows.exe
+examples/badge/testbuild-badge-linux-arm64
+examples/badge/testbuild-badge-linux-x86_64
+```

+task test:examples:linux:docker:arm64
+
+# x86_64 builds  
+task test:example:linux:docker:x86_64 DIR=badge
+task test:examples:linux:docker:x86_64
+```
+
+#### Auto-Detection Tasks (Recommended)
+```bash
+# Single example (auto-detects host architecture)
+task test:example:linux:docker DIR=badge
+
+# All examples (auto-detects host architecture)
+task test:examples:linux:docker
+```
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Key Fixes Applied in v3.0.0-alpha
+
+#### 1. **Complete Example Coverage**
+- **Before**: 35 examples tested
+- **After**: 43 examples tested (100% coverage)
+- **Added**: dev, events-bug, gin-example, gin-routing, gin-service, html-dnd-api, notifications
+
+#### 2. **Go Module Resolution**
+- **Issue**: Inconsistent replace directives across examples
+- **Fix**: Standardized all examples to use `replace github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3 => ../..`
+- **Examples Fixed**: gin-example, gin-routing, notifications
+
+#### 3. **Frontend Asset Embedding**
+- **Issue**: Some examples referenced missing `frontend/dist` directories
+- **Fix**: Updated embed paths from `//go:embed all:frontend/dist` to `//go:embed all:frontend`
+- **Examples Fixed**: file-association, notifications
+
+#### 4. **Manager API Migration**
+- **Issue**: Windows badge service using deprecated API
+- **Fix**: Updated `app.CurrentWindow()` → `app.Windows.Current()`
+- **Files Fixed**: pkg/services/badge/badge_windows.go
+
+#### 5. **File Association Example**
+- **Issue**: Undefined window variable
+- **Fix**: Added proper window assignment from `app.Windows.NewWithOptions()`
+- **Files Fixed**: examples/file-association/main.go
+
+### Build Performance
+- **macOS**: ~2-3 minutes for all 43 examples
+- **Windows Cross-Compile**: ~2-3 minutes for all 43 examples
+- **Linux Docker**: ~5-10 minutes for all 43 examples (includes image build)
+- **Total Build Time**: ~10-15 minutes for complete cross-platform validation (129 builds)
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Single Example Testing (Requires DIR Parameter)
+```bash
+# Test the badge example on all platforms
+task test:example:darwin DIR=badge              # macOS native
+task test:example:windows DIR=badge             # Windows cross-compile
+task test:example:linux:docker DIR=badge        # Linux Docker (auto-detect arch)
+```
+
+### All Examples Testing (No DIR Parameter)
+```bash
+# Test everything - all 43 examples, all platforms
+task test:examples:all
+
+# This runs:
+# 1. All Darwin builds (43 examples)

+task test:examples           # Current platform only (43 builds)
+```
+
+## Build Process Details
+
+### macOS Builds
+1. Sets macOS-specific CGO flags for compatibility
+2. Runs `go mod tidy` in each example directory
+3. Compiles with `go build -o testbuild-{example}-darwin`
+4. Links against UniformTypeIdentifiers framework
+
+### Windows Cross-Compilation
+1. Sets `GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64` environment
+2. Runs `go mod tidy` in each example directory  
+3. Cross-compiles with `go build -o testbuild-{example}-windows.exe`
+4. No CGO dependencies required (uses Windows APIs)
+
+### Linux Docker Builds
+1. **Auto-Detection**: Detects host architecture (ARM64 or x86_64)
+2. **Image Selection**: Uses appropriate Ubuntu 24.04 image for target architecture
+3. **Native Compilation**: Eliminates cross-compilation CGO issues
+4. **Environment Setup**: Full GTK/WebKit development environment
+5. **Build Process**: Runs `go mod tidy && go build` with native toolchain
+6. **Output**: Architecture-specific binaries (`-linux-arm64` or `-linux-x86_64`)
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues (All Resolved in v3.0.0-alpha)
+
+#### **Go Module Resolution Errors**
+```bash
+Error: replacement directory ../wails/v3 does not exist
+```
+**Solution**: All examples now use standardized `replace github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3 => ../..`
+
+#### **Frontend Asset Embedding Errors**
+```bash
+Error: pattern frontend/dist: no matching files found
+```
+**Solution**: Updated to `//go:embed all:frontend` for examples without dist directories
+
+#### **Manager API Errors**
+```bash
+Error: app.CurrentWindow undefined
+```
+**Solution**: Updated to use new manager pattern `app.Windows.Current()`
+
+#### **Build Warnings**
+Some examples may show compatibility warnings (e.g., notifications using macOS 10.14+ APIs with 10.13 target). These are non-blocking warnings that can be addressed separately.
+
+### Performance Optimization
+
+#### **Parallel Builds**
+```bash
+# The task system automatically runs builds in parallel where possible
+task v3:test:examples:all    # Optimized for maximum throughput
+```
+
+#### **Selective Testing**
+```bash
+# Test specific examples to debug issues
+task v3:test:example:darwin DIR=badge
+task v3:test:example:windows DIR=contextmenus
+```
+
+### Performance Tips
+
+**Parallel Builds:**
+```bash
+# Build multiple examples simultaneously
+task v3:test:example:darwin DIR=badge &
+task v3:test:example:darwin DIR=binding &
+task v3:test:example:darwin DIR=build &
+wait
+```
+
+**Docker Image Caching:**
+```bash
+# Pre-build Docker images
+docker build -f Dockerfile.linux -t wails-v3-linux-builder .
+docker build -f Dockerfile.linux-simple -t wails-v3-linux-simple .
+```
+
+## Integration with Git
+
+### Ignored Files
+All build artifacts are automatically ignored via `.gitignore`:
+```gitignore
+/v3/examples/*/testbuild-*
+```
+
+### Clean Build Environment
+```bash
+# Remove all test build artifacts
+find v3/examples -name "testbuild-*" -delete
+```
+
+## Validation Results
+
+### Current Status (as of implementation):
+- ✅ **macOS**: All 43 examples compile successfully  
+- ✅ **Windows**: All 43 examples cross-compile successfully
+- ✅ **Linux**: Multi-architecture Docker system fully functional
+
+### Build Time Estimates:
+- **macOS**: ~2-3 minutes for all examples
+- **Windows**: ~2-3 minutes for all examples (cross-compile)
+- **Linux Docker**: ~5-10 minutes for all examples (includes image build and compilation)
+- **Complete Cross-Platform**: ~10-15 minutes for 129 total builds
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+### Planned Improvements:
+1. **Automated Testing**: Add runtime testing in addition to compilation
+2. **Multi-Architecture**: Support ARM64 builds for Apple Silicon and Windows ARM
+3. **Build Caching**: Implement Go build cache for faster repeated builds
+4. **Parallel Docker**: Multi-stage Docker builds for faster Linux compilation
+5. **Platform Matrix**: GitHub Actions integration for automated CI/CD
+
+### Platform Extensions:
+- **FreeBSD**: Add BSD build support
+- **Android/iOS**: Mobile platform compilation (when supported)
+- **WebAssembly**: WASM target compilation
+

+# Welcome to Your New Wails3 Project!
+Now that you have your project set up, it's time to explore the custom badge features that Wails3 offers on **Windows**.
+
+## Exploring Custom Badge Features
+
+### Creating the Service with Custom Options (Windows Only)
+
+On Windows, you can customize the badge appearance with various options:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/application"
+import "github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/services/badge"
+import "image/color"
+
+// Create a badge service with custom options
+options := badge.Options{
+    TextColour:       color.RGBA{255, 255, 255, 255}, // White text
+    BackgroundColour: color.RGBA{0, 0, 255, 255},     // Green background
+    FontName:         "consolab.ttf",                 // Bold Consolas font
+    FontSize:         20,                             // Font size for single character
+    SmallFontSize:    14,                             // Font size for multiple characters
+}
+
+badgeService := badge.NewWithOptions(options)
+
+// Register the service with the application
+app := application.New(application.Options{
+    Services: []application.Service{
+        application.NewService(badgeService),
+    },
+})
+```
+
+## Badge Operations
+
+### Setting a Badge
+
+Set a badge on the application tile/dock icon with the global options applied:
+
+#### Go
+```go
+// Set a default badge
+badgeService.SetBadge("")
+
+// Set a numeric badge
+badgeService.SetBadge("3")
+
+// Set a text badge
+badgeService.SetBadge("New")
+```
+
+#### JS
+```js
+import {SetBadge} from "../bindings/github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/services/badge/service";
+
+// Set a default badge
+SetBadge("")
+
+// Set a numeric badge
+SetBadge("3")
+
+// Set a text badge
+SetBadge("New")
+```
+
+### Setting a Custom Badge
+
+Set a badge on the application tile/dock icon with one-off options applied:
+
+#### Go
+```go
+// Set a default badge
+badgeService.SetCustomBadge("")
+
+// Set a numeric badge
+badgeService.SetCustomBadge("3")
+
+// Set a text badge
+badgeService.SetCustomBadge("New")
+```
+
+#### JS
+```js
+import {SetCustomBadge} from "../bindings/github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/services/badge/service";
+
+const options = {
+   BackgroundColour: RGBA.createFrom({
+         R: 0,
+         G: 255,
+         B: 255,
+         A: 255,
+      }),
+      FontName: "arialb.ttf", // System font
+      FontSize: 16,
+      SmallFontSize: 10,
+      TextColour: RGBA.createFrom({
+         R: 0,
+         G: 0,
+         B: 0,
+         A: 255,
+      }),
+}
+
+// Set a default badge
+SetCustomBadge("", options)
+
+// Set a numeric badge
+SetCustomBadge("3", options)
+
+// Set a text badge
+SetCustomBadge("New", options)
+```
+
+### Removing a Badge
+
+Remove the badge from the application icon:
+
+#### Go
+```go
+badgeService.RemoveBadge()
+```
+
+#### JS
+```js
+import {RemoveBadge} from "../bindings/github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/pkg/services/badge/service";
+
+RemoveBadge()
+```
