    (disclaimer: I work on Flutter Web) Curious what's not working in Flutter's accessibility. We are aware of multiple bugs, some specific to a particular assistive tech not interpret…

    Flutter has accessibility. We create a html tree with ARIA attributes. It's not there if you don't have assistive technology enabled, however.

    There are a few things that WASM can do that JS can't (at least not now): - Memory management without GC - Unboxed data structures - SIMD - Shared-memory multi-threading - Precompi…

    (disclaimer: I work on the Flutter team) There's no difference between CanvasKit and HTML as far as interactions are concerned. The differences are in pixels and performance. If th…

    (disclaimer: I work on the Flutter team) We certainly don't think Flutter should replace HTML or other frameworks. We hope Flutter will work well for many use-cases, but the web is…

    (disclaimer: I work on the Flutter team) The "Create account" link isn't popping up the right-click menu because it doesn't use the Link widget. You'd get the same thing in plain H…

    Do give `--dart-define=FLUTTER_WEB_USE_SKIA=true` a try (`flutter run` and `flutter build` take this option, which we hopefully will rename to something more reasonable soon). If t…

    (disclaimer: I work on Flutter Web) Vimium is an interesting use-case. I've never heard of this extension. We have in the past enabled accessibility DOM all the time, but due to pe…

    While Flutter makes text selection an explicit choice for developers, Text vs SelectableText, for some reason Text ended up being most used. This is likely because SelectableText c…

    I hear you. There's a link widget coming, multiple browser history models (we've only supported URL fragments, but are adding pushState, and custom URL strategies, as well as navig…

    (disclaimer: I work on Flutter Web) We actually use plain standard HTML and ARIA attributes for accessibility. If you don't see them, try enabling a screen reader (e.g. TalkBack on…

    WebAssembly compilation is a little orthogonal to getting the framework and rendering system up and running. We do not have to wait for WebAssembly to make progress on the UI side …

    All these benchmarks have "asmjs" in their names, which tells me they are not benchmarking idiomatic JavaScript, but JS generated by emscripten. If that's the case, they do not rep…
