How to use this skill

Build a menu in your Tauri app setup:

use tauri::menu::{Menu, Submenu, MenuItem, PredefinedMenuItem};
tauri::Builder::default()
    .setup(|app| {
        let file_menu = Submenu::with_items(app, "File", true, &[
            &MenuItem::with_id(app, "new", "New", true, Some("CmdOrCtrl+N"))?,
            &MenuItem::with_id(app, "open", "Open", true, Some("CmdOrCtrl+O"))?,
            &PredefinedMenuItem::separator(app)?,
            &MenuItem::with_id(app, "quit", "Quit", true, Some("CmdOrCtrl+Q"))?,
        ])?;
        let menu = Menu::with_items(app, &[&file_menu])?;
        app.set_menu(menu)?;
        Ok(())
    })
    .on_menu_event(|app, event| match event.id.as_ref() {
        "new" => { /* handle new */ }
        "quit" => { app.exit(0); }
        _ => {}
    })

Assign keyboard accelerators using the
```
Some("CmdOrCtrl+N")
```
format
Handle menu events in the
```
on_menu_event
```
callback with match on event IDs
Adapt for platform conventions: macOS has the app menu (About, Preferences, Quit); Windows uses File/Edit/Help
Use PredefinedMenuItem for standard items like separator, copy, paste, and quit

Outputs

Native menu setup with submenus and items
Keyboard accelerator bindings
Cross-platform menu convention guidance
