Not surprising.

Here's my quick criteria for whether I should use a new framework for my app:

- look at other apps that are using that framework, esp. the signature/first class app touted as a consumer by that framework

- how similar is my app to that signature/first class app?

- if my app has similar UX/UI usage then the dev experience will be much smoother/easier/doable

i.e. for React Native: does my app behave like Facebook? If not (say, an action game as an obvious typical non-usage scenario), there be dragons...

for mature, stable frameworks like native mac OS<=9, macOS, Win32, most GUI apps are straight forward, it's when you push the limits of the UI where things will hit hurdles.

So what's the signature/first class app for Flutter Desktop?



Probably this one https://rive.app/


This is exactly why even after I made the decision, I’m still somewhat hesitant on learning Django. With RoR it’s a different story, but Django is a bit weird in this regard (users, references, popular applications).
