| Flutter is great, still the fastest way to make cross platform mobile apps and you get desktop and web support essentially for free. Performance is very fast as it's all natively AOT compiled machine code without any web views like Electron. |

| On desktop does flutter have native access to the machine it's running on? Can it talk to printers for example? |

So far nothing has interfered with other platform build targets. I look forward to adding Apple's agentic tool calling interface, too. | |
