I noticed the SNCF Connect app for France's rail was using it in their showcase which explains why the scroll views are so weird and busted feeling. They still stutter on a new iPhone. As a native iOS developer I'm somewhat biased and a lot of people likely don't care but it still feels off to me even for apps that use a complete custom design. I hope they can optmise away those kind of issues more as it's IMO always better to have alternatives. Side note: Is anyone using Flutter just for Android? I'm kind of tempted to try this as dealing with the Android build system and packaging is bit of a pain, despite Kotlin and Compose being quite nice.

You still have to deal with the Android build system, `flutter new` just generates initial config for it and all the other necessary metadata (and that config can change between versions - I ended up manually diffing the generated stuff against a new app every time I upgraded). At some point I made the mistake of not touching the code for too long and upgrading Android Studio when suggested, and I was never able to (find the time needed to) get that app working again.

  Ah gotcha, I thought it was papered over a bit more with Flutter's tooling. Good to know.
