       | Meh.
       | 
       | I've built several small projects in Flutter. Google doesn't
       | Dogfood it properly, and just cut a significant number of staff
       | working on it.

       | I want Flutter to succeed, but I don't have too much faith it
       | long term. That said, if I had to hack out a quick app right now
       | for a client I'd probably use Flutter. Development is fast and
       | easy. You can just write code as if you're writing JS and learn a
       | bit of extra syntax.

       | React Native has it's own issues, but I have more faith in Meta
       | to keep funding it.

       | Obviously the question that really needs answered is "does
       | Flutter have a future?"
       | 
       | Given Google is notorious for killing popular products, the fact
       | they just fired a bunch of people dedicated to make this product
       | work and the rather niche nature of Dart and Flutter... all signs
       | point to it being becoming an open source project.
       | 
       | Can it survive as an OSS project?
