Coming as a iOS Developer
Hello everyone! First time here and I’m coming here with an open mind. I’ve been an iOS developer for many years now and work mostly with Swift. For the longest time, I HATED the idea of cross platform mobile development like React Native. How can one language/framework truly build on both platforms? What if Apple decides to just shut apps off that’s not using native?Flutter has been getting more and more popular. I am intrigued by the language and also the amazing community behind it. What are some pros and cons to Flutter? As someone who exclusively develops in Swift, what are some things I should keep in mind if I end up doing the transition?Thanks!

How can you possibly call flutter web stable?
To be honest, I'm a bit disappointed by the 2.0 announcement. How is it justified to move flutter web to stable ? This feels like pure make belief to me.Since its conception, flutter web has been a bit of a moonshot. Mapping the system of widgets to html is highly non-trivial and can lead to weird compatibility and performance issues. To work around this, the flutter team conceived a canvaskit based renderer, which allows them to control the entire tech stack but brings in a huge range of issues on its own.Flutter web suffers from 3 main issues:They try to reimplement the wheel. Text rendering, scrolling, etc are usually done by the browser. With the canvaskit renderer it's all done by flutter. Which means a crazy amount of work to get it right. The result is an experience that doesn't feel natural. Try scrolling in the flutter gallery. The movement speed and bounce effects are subtly different from other websites.Did I mention scrolling? Flutter on the web suffers from lots of stutters and yanks. This is notoriously bad for scrolling in lists. But the problem can be seen in many places, I just watched the plasma demo on my iPad pro 11 from 2018, it stutters a lot.time to interactive is a nightmare. Since flutter doesn't rely on the browser to do the heavy lifting, they need to pull in huge ressources for their renderer. I challenge you, pick any flutter web app and look at the lighthouse score, it's pretty grim.How come everyone is talking about user experience, but then they don't face these blatant performance issues. There's lots of talks how improving the performance of a web app has increased user retention. But flutter is simply not able to reach any reasonable performance metrics regarding "first meaningful paint" and "time to interactive".Here's a link web.dev/measureGo for it, put some flutter demos in there, like the gallery.After watching the show I don't see an improvement that justifies declaring the web support to be stable. Particularly the canvaskit renderer has been around for quite some time now. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy using flutter on mobile and I'm intrigued by their vision for the web. But bumping the version number to 2 and declaring web support to be stable seems just arbitrary to me.

Can flutter desktop apps be reversed engineered?
When I ask this I am fully aware that anything that is not server side can be reverse engineered, it just boils down to how hard/expensive it is and how committed the hacker is, so with that in mind how easy or hard is it to reverse engineer a flutter desktop app?when building in python, it is very easy to reverse engineer some code and we usually have to use some Cython to compile our sourcecode and make it harder to read, is a desktop flutter app safer?

Stable ≠ Production
We could really use a very high-level roadmap for each platform that the team determines meets their expectation for the platform being marked as production-ready. I realize this is a bit of a fuzzy line since the needs of an enterprise application may differ from a beats maker, but there are some clear lines. Even in the Flutter Engage Q&A the panelists said web is not production ready, but the Flutter announcement says that it is. They also said that Desktop is beta and lacks accessibility support and multi-window.How can Google do a better job of informing us when they think a particular platform meets the reasonable criteria to be called production-ready?

OPINION: Flutter 2.0 was disappointing and not the direction I wanted for Flutter
This is just a personal opinion, and I'd love to hear your views. All my opinions come from me mainly being a Web Dev for 5+ years and a Flutter Dev for only around 1.5 years.When I learnt Flutter, I had only one goal - To make mobile apps rapidly for cross-platform and not have to write too much boilerplate code to get that done. And as Flutter progressed, I really hoped for more in that exact region - improve cross-platform mobile development. While Flutter Web and Desktop are a welcome addition, and I can't speak for Flutter Desktop cause I haven't tried it, Flutter Web has been incredibly disappointing.The world of Web Dev is rapidly progressing. React and Vue are not only hugely supported by most other libraries and SDKs, but they're also highly optimised. I get the appeal of learning one framework and building everything in it, but at the current stage Flutter Web has a long way to go before I call it stable. If I wanted to build a serious, huge project, there's no way I'm choosing Flutter right now. With frameworks like NextJS for SSR and multiple CSS UI Libraries for any JS Framework, I believe native web solutions like React will be superior.Most importantly, the appeal of Flutter was writing one code for anywhere. Android and iOS with the same codebase. There's no way the same codebase works for the Web too, so why bother rewriting your app to suit the web in a framework that's not built for it, just to reuse some components and logic?I've been long hoping for features on Flutter on the mobile side like Homescreen Widgets, More Native Mobile OS support, smoother apps etc.I'm really disappointed to see the direction Flutter is taking, trying to be the jack of all trades before it's really nailed down one properly.I would love to hear your opinions and whether you think Flutter made the right choice pushing Web and Desktop currently

Flutter for heavy multimedia desktop application
Hi,Flutter noob here. Since Flutter 2 is announced and desktop support seems to come closer to be production ready, I wonder if Flutter is suited for multimedia desktop applications.For example, would it be a good choice for making an app like Photoshop, Blender and so on?From the top of my head I can see a few paint points depending on what Flutter has out of the shelve.Notably, what is the Flutter story about:A docking system (quite common in 3D application, IDE and so on)Resizable widget by user3D/2D GPU accelerated renderingPopups (modal or not)TooltipsNative Open/Save dialogWhat is your opinion on this?

Just finished Flutter course, what to do next?
Hello, I have just finished a Flutter course from LondonAppBrewery. What to do next to keep learning and improve my skills. The course I have finished was pretty "for beginners", the hardest app I created was firebase messaging app. What are the new things to learn and how to keep practicing?

I cloned the Dashatar App (failed)
Here is the GitHub repo. You can visit the web app here.It is not mobile responsive. It's a little buggy. And I did my best.Also made a video on what I learnt.I feel it is a fun project you can do.

Does Flutter Web Endanger The App Stores?
As I was watching the flutter announcements yesterday, I got a little scared.Flutter web enables us to create web apps in such a way that circumventing the App Store is profoundly easy for the developer.All it takes is 3-4 influencer apps to pull from the App Store and train people on how to install as a web app and human behavior is transformed from using the App Stores entirely.Then google and Apple have no control over the revenue from their app stores. So is google creating a monster that they will be tempted to destroy?
