    I don't think scenic is written in Rust. A big chunk of the source code in the topaz layer (the view layer) is still written in dart. With that said, many were actually surprised w…

    I think you're confusing fuchsia and flutter. Fuchsia is a new OS while flutter is it's native UI. I don't think "uncanny" is applicable here.
