How is Flutter for Windows and MacOS in contrast to electron?
4 comments

It is alpha and it is from Google. Electron has neither of those flaws (which btw combine in my opinion to some kind of super-flaw, like those Transformers toys).
Many years ago, after they iced one of their half-assed messaging apps, I joked that the Google motto is, “If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing badly.”

Will Flutter keep improving? Or will Google get bored with it and neglect it, like they have with Angular? I have a guess.

Much faster as it compiles to a native binary, but still in alpha.
I guess it is like Dart is for the web in contrast with JavaScript?
