Now if flutter would learn all of that and stop trying (and failing) reproduce it! Guess what? OS Level and browser level spell checking doesn't work in Flutter because it's rendering pixels instead of OS text input / HTML text input. And a ton of other issues that will likely never be fixed. It almost makes we wonder if Flutter's goal isn't good UX but rather user control. If it's just pixels it's much harder for users to copy and paste, quote, scrape, etc....
