Do you think this is a better option than Apache Cordova? I've been starting to look at Cordova to build some pretty simple apps for business applications. Does anyone have an opinion on whether Flutter would be a better choice? Why? I

It can be very isolating. I try and make sure I'm in situations where I know I will have a good chance of hearing so I can stay in the mix. Imagine sitting around the table with 20 people, everyone else is speaking Chinese and you mayb
