TBH I think having a flutter port for this operating mobile system is probably the most likely way for it to succeed. That way you can do a flutter app and it will work on this too, while still having mainline OS support.
Then you would need to fill in some common services like push and such.

- novok 5y agoI think that is actually counter productive, since the emulated apps will always be shittier than their native counterparts, and you need to constantly deal with telemetry shims for Apple & Google lest the apps wont work properly.
- ryukafalz 5y agoIt's desktop Linux, so you can do this now! I know of at least one Flutter app available as a Flatpak on ARM Linux (FluffyChat).
- novok 5y agoYeah it's really close already and has adoption in the mobile world, which is why I would suggest the community adopt that vs something else like mobile gtk. I dunno how optimized flutter desktop for linux is for the mobile version, maybe all it will take is a view port change and implementing some more mobile orientated apis like location & orientation changes.

- novok 5y agoI think both would be necessary.
