I don’t have much to say, only that I expected flutter to be a bloated fragile abstraction on top of different native GUI APIs, but no.
It’s quite fast, relatively easy to develop and it just works.
I’m working on a desktop app that needs a high-perf rust impl, and (for now) flutter looks like a much better choice than tauri.
I wanted to get into Flutter but it seems like there are some bugs that are either unfixable or that they have actively decided not to fix. I didn’t want to end up wasting my time building on such a foundation, but it’s definitely nice for certain projects that fit within the supported functionality.
What bugs do you mean? Anything serious i should know about?
The main one that jumped out to me was a scroll issue on iOS when using multiple fingers. I just looked it up to share a link and it may be fixed? It’s the mentality of “Eh, we might fix it one day” that is the bulk of why I didn’t stick with Flutter. A bug this annoying lingering for as long as it did said volumes to me.
