I’m really waiting for WebGPU and WASM with garbage collection to land in the browser across the board. I think both of those technologies are going to be key to unlocking a the power of Flutter web.
- sgt 4y agoYes, I agree. Interesting times ahead, but it will likely take 2-3 years.
- mhoad 4y agoAgreed, this is also my timeline for Flutter web becoming a more serious contender. There are one or two other technologies/ standards that are an important piece of the puzzle like the accessibility object model to start to decouple accessibility from the rendered DOM interface for example and allow canvas based interfaces to become better supported. But I follow a lot of that stuff pretty closely and 2-3 years seems like more than enough time, a bunch of it is probably slated to happen as early as this year (WebGPU behind a flag already on all browsers I believe, WasmGC under active development in all browsers, dart already has a functional WASM compiler and a new graphics engine ready to go and take advantage of it etc..)
