[v3] Can wails3 dev support starting a project without a front-end?

[learning-go123]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, running wails3 dev always starts the frontend development server along with the backend. This can be inconvenient when you only want to work on or debug the backend part of the application.

Describe the solution you’d like

Provide an option (e.g. a CLI flag or configuration setting) to start the backend development server without automatically launching the frontend dev server. This would allow developers to run only the backend when the frontend is already running elsewhere or not needed at all.

Describe alternatives you’ve considered

Manually disabling the frontend or modifying project files temporarily, but this is cumbersome and error-prone.

Additional context

This feature would improve development efficiency for teams where frontend and backend are developed separately or on different machines.

maybe you can start the backend by go run dirctly. example: FRONTEND_DEVSERVER_URL=http://localhost:3000 go run .
