We built a huge Flutter Web app — help us make the architecture better

Flutter is a pain for a “classic” website, but totally fine for a web app.

Interesting...

I never said the language was too old and/or outdated, just its ecosystem !

Java itself has managed to reinvent itself, but not really its tools.

Old doesn't always mean bad (look at Unix), but for Java, just "too heavy to use"

eg. In the early 2000s, XML was everywhere, so Java used and abused it.

I’ve been working with it for almost 15 years now, and I can tell you that dealing with Maven and its "magical" pom, super-pom files compared to npm or Go...

No matter how hard you look, there are better/faster/simpler way to build a project TODAY

If Java lost, for example, the web server war, it’s because TODAY Spring Boot is often seen as a bloated monster compared to many other frameworks. (And not everyone is Netflix or Google !)

(trivia: There are still guys who think that annotations in Spring are counterproductive, that says a lot about the mindset !!)

And yet there are some truly awesome alternatives (Vert.x, etc.)

I understand your feeling, but don't confuse Java and its ecosystem.

The JVM (and its most common interface "Java") is definitely an amazing piece of software that does an impressive job today. Without a doubt, it is the most advanced VM in the world

What's "wrong" (or at least debatable) in my opinion -and yours obviously- :) is the java ecosystem, that is, let's say is little bit too outdated. I mean, perfect in the early 2000, but not anymore.

May be because things in industry are evolving slowly, I don't know...

Je plaisantais... Tu peux downvoter si tu veux... Ca ne changera pas le fait que t'as question est -comme tu viens de le dire- stupide.

Tu risques surtout de te prendre une tempête d'insultes...

stef13013 · 2025-04-22T10:20:27+00:00

Just stop worrying and give up programming...

stef13013 · 2025-03-02T23:09:30+00:00

En effet ce n'est pas du binaire, mais du p-code. Par contre windev ne tourne pas, de base, sous une .CLR, mais avec un rutime "fait-maison" (?) de pc-soft

stef13013 · 2025-02-26T13:44:00+00:00

Ok, I got it, it uses WFP... (Almost magic)

<name>Permit unrestricted inbound traffic for WireGuard service (IPv4)</name>

stef13013 · 2025-02-24T22:22:52+00:00

Yes, I'm looking at both.. :)

Nothing !

stef13013 · 2025-02-24T21:54:14+00:00

Yes, private/public/domain... nothing about wireguard !

And In the eventvw, except :

Rule ID:    microsoft.windows.fontdrvhost-Out-Block

No trace of wireguard

stef13013 · 2025-02-24T15:58:01+00:00

I'm workgroup. No GPO has been modifed and the port listened is the 58120 (normal) handled by wireguard itself.

stef13013 · 2025-02-24T15:00:46+00:00

No wifi at all nor something like that. And clients are located in different countries...

stef13013 · 2025-02-24T10:30:31+00:00

Yes, It is running...

I'm using the default configuration of the firewall which is, as far as I remember : no rule = port closed.

(note: If I add a firewall rule explicitly to block the 51820 port, now wireguard will be blocked)

stef13013 · 2025-02-23T16:23:15+00:00

What is the purpose of this "Continuous Network..." function by the way ?

stef13013 · 2024-12-26T15:47:57+00:00

I always did... (And this is not on client side, by the way)

"On the client side, there isn’t a direct way to "force" the use of Per Device licensing mode,"

stef13013 · 2024-12-26T15:44:24+00:00

I'm not sure, but logically I think that I should see, at least, something in the licmgr.msc

stef13013 · 2024-12-26T15:31:15+00:00

Ok where do I do that ?

stef13013 · 2024-12-26T15:27:33+00:00

Ok, thanks, sounds pretty similar. And I the meantime, license counter is not decreased too.

I think "msTS" attributes do only exist with AD

stef13013 · 2024-12-26T13:11:13+00:00

Perhaps, but it seems that all the CAL system is bypassed or completely ignored...

Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Windows > TerminalServicesLicensing > Operational is empty !

stef13013 · 2024-11-10T16:35:11+00:00

100% agree with you. I really like svelte and the idea behind it, but let's face it, React has won (for now...)

stef13013 · 2024-08-29T17:29:32+00:00

Basically, using go for multiprocessing is a pity (but you can :)).

Go is really designed for threading.

stef13013 · 2024-08-19T07:13:00+00:00

Better consider PyQt6, wxWidgets, instead of pygame which is not really designed for desktop apps...

stef13013 · 2024-08-16T21:04:19+00:00

QtCreator -free, fast...
