PaperFlow: Check if a backend is needed

Considering Tauri is being used and the frontend is with react, will a backend be still needed for such an app or would it be possible to ship everything together like with Snappub Next.Js

Some questions I have?

• Would it be possible to do it all from the frontend?

• Even if it is, could I look at rust to do some more of the heavy lifting parts of the app, such as fetching data from the API and processing?
