I interviewed with one of the flutter engineers. After a casual talk with him on how they were doing the rendering, while interesting, I had a feeling that fluter will fail. It reminded me a bit of all the HTML 5.0 on mobile efforts back in 2011-2014, which mostly failed. (React Native, was an offshoot of those earlier efforts, but even that is being slowly abandoned by the industry now). That's what you get your company hires only leetcoders. Sometimes domain expertise comes at expense of general expertise. (some people are super strong in one area, but not so in others). Google hires generalists, which are good at the small leetcode style problems given during an interview, but which surprise surprise are not super strong at design well thought out rendering techniques. Hence the continuous failures in many new products.
