Is there a reason you guys are reinventing Flash under the name flutter? because from what I can tell that is exactly what is happening



What makes you think Flutter is in any way similar to Flash?


the way it is tied into chrome with "native" apis and only difference as far as I can tell is the fact it ships the "runtime" along with itself instead of it being everywhere as flash was. Resulting in massive sizes for mobile apps


We compile to JS for execution on the browser. We don't use the NPAPI or Pepper plugin APIs. We intend to work on any standards-compliant browser. (I used to be the editor for the HTML standard, so I have some skin in this game.)

What size would you consider acceptable for a mobile Web app?
