On linux install dependencies of rfd as applicable. Copied from https://docs.rs/rfd/latest/rfd/#linux--bsd-backends

Distribution	Installation Command
Fedora	dnf install gtk3-devel
Arch	pacman -S gtk3
Debian & Ubuntu	apt install libgtk-3-dev

cargo run

For web:

rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown

cargo install --locked trunk
