> People complain about missing features they need, because having a slick UI is very much a secondary concern, well after "is this actually doing everything I want it to do?" and "does it have all the features I want to accomplish my goals".
Well, yes, that is the point of software (and any technology in general), to accomplish the goal that the user wants to accomplish. I'm also not talking about prosumer apps per se, although I've made those too, but true consumer apps as well, no one has really complained about the UX, in fact they actually like that I'm able to make slick animations inside the app for quite a cheap computational cost. Since Flutter is basically a 2D game engine, it's optimized for those operations. I'm never gonna write 5 different apps for 5 different OSes anymore, it's a monumental waste of human labor.
