"file_explorer" example does not work

[matthiasbeyer]

Problem

I am trying to get something working, but dioxus seems not to work at all for me:

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• dx serve --desktop inside the file_explorer example

Screenshots

Environment:

• Dioxus version: main
• Rust version: 1.93.1
• OS info: NixOS 25.11
• App platform: desktop

---

Desktop Environment is KDE.

Using the provided flake and running nixpkgs#dioxus-cli -- serve --desktop gives the same (presumably) broken output for me as well.

I am also on nixos (although I am using unstable).

Hi!

I don't think this targeted the right issue.

Even with latest master, this happens.

Yes, this is either an issue with how we are resolving assets on linux (#5328 changes this when bundled, unsure if it will fix this issue during debug builds where we use the path directly) or an issue with the webview itself

To maybe help a bit:

CSS seems to load fine

The console only logs:

[Error] Failed to load resource: TLS support is not available (icon, line 0) (which is a fonts.googleapi.com url)

Looking at the individual elements gives this:

Which I think might be a symptom? Could also be unrelated, I have 0 knowledge in this area.
