The font-end part is already open source anyway.

Not OP, and can't comment on Google's hidden intentions, but it does have a point - any such open source Flash replacements would make ad blocking harder.

Off topic: any plans for Delphi-like GUI RAD IDE? When I see some non-trivial Flutter UI code - it ought to have been generated by machine.

How it being an open source would help ad blocking on the client side? It certainly won't be as easy as current blocking methods for html/css/js.

Yes, basically Dart/Flutter now embraces being a full fledged standalone cross-platform client development tool. Lately, desktop platforms are embraced as well. In order to lure C++/Qt/wxWidgets, C#/WPF, Delphi, etc... d

I'd say text inputs are notoriously hard/cumbersome to emulate/re-implement in order to match the native control behavior/functionality. I guess your app doesn't depend that critically on it? (unlike messaging app)

Isn't the "culture fit" the same thing in a (non-academia) private sector as well? Usually, the premise here is that being a "good person" has a higher priority over being a "highly-skilled person". And of

Also interesting, how do you monetize? (Besides acquiring a lot of users and selling out)

What about the carbon footprint of development time? Or maybe it is no longer an issue due to stagnated salaries and skyrocketed profits?

I see. Although, for Cambridge, UK, I might be off by a factor of 2 at most, I believe.

That's not the case usually. The savings you are left after all the expenses outweigh the price differences significantly.

The thing is, Competitive Programming (CP) is a completely different discipline/subject with its own trivia knowledge and tricks. CP uses Computer Science the same way as e.g. Biology uses Mathematics. It has very little in common with

Off topic: is there still no alternative for putting random URLs directly in a source code in order to use some libs?
