I meant it in terms of a widget with no notion of the DOM. You can’t really right click, select, only if the app creator overrides those events. Nothing native.
Also, what if the creator embeds an ad inside a canvas? You would need an AI to hide it from there. So, all in all a pretty terrible direction to go..
Last time they rendered everything into a canvas. The initial plan was to render DOM elements on the web (the other platforms are essentially canvases, so it was the easiest to implement).
I don’t know the current state of Flutter, please don’t judge it based on my comment alone! But do look out for it, and perhaps also cross-browser usability. Yet again, I write about an older version, but under Firefox the demo Flutter apps were insanely slow (much more than under chrome)
* closed source
* requires ag extra plugin to render
* slow
* fake sandbox that had too many bugs
Flutter has none of these.
