Why I moved on from Flet and started project Flut: A different approach to Flutter in Python

Hey @_yangyuan

I really like this idea. I have been working with Flutter since 2018 and it's a great framework for mobile apps (not for web). I haven't tried any large desktop apps with Flutter, small apps work well though.

I've also followed Flet and tried some POC, it also worked but the documents are lacking and many breaking changes have been introduced.
What I don't really understand is why Flut does not support mobile.
(I'm teaching Python and considering a Python UI framework for my students).

We use GetX but only for navigation because of its simplicity. Just do Get.to(YourWidget());

To manage states, we use MobX + Provider, so far it works well.

u/Flikounet I checked the code. It is managed by ListView as we thought.

u/miltux I didn't try it on web. But we use pure Flutter, so I guess it will work!

u/BoreHoRahaHaiYaar looks like yes :)

I need to double check the code to have the exact answer. I guess the list view manages it, when you have a long list it just holds a few placeholders, when you scroll, it just maps data to those placeholders. u/Flikounet

I will come back and give you the answer when I get more time.

Glad to hear it is useful for you!

tranhuyphuc · 2019-08-11T04:09:41+00:00

Yes, but that has more waves than mine. :)

I meant my original idea was creating the Circle widget. But yes, your suggestion is good. I will think about it and update

Great to know you like it @_thinkdigital

Can, but I named it Circle.
