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.

Dart's single purpose was supposed to be a JS successor for browsers.

I can understand trepidation about committing to a sibling of Google Reader, but I'm also glad Dart is getting a second shake. It's very much a general-purpose language.

I personally enjoy writing Dart a lot more than Go. It really added to my experience learning and working with Flutter.
