I haven’t seen a lot of discussion here of other existing apps moving to Flutter, which surprises me because my experience and my team’s has been so good — the performance, the quality of the code and documentation, and also our experience working with upstream. So I thought I’d share this here.

Happy to answer any questions people have about Flutter and our experience with it. I also plan to write a more detailed technical blog post in a couple of months.

The app looks, ok… looking forward to seeing it improve over time when it comes out of test flight.

I will say, the only reason why I haven’t moved my private comms with friend over to Zulip or RocketChat, and this is gonna sound petty, is because their mobile apps don’t let you insert gifs from the keyboard in your phone.

Heh, well, I'll take that as a vote for prioritizing that feature. :) (It's in our tracker already: https://github.com/zulip/zulip-flutter/issues/419)

Awesome. Thanks Price! Keep up the great work. I do love a good self hosted, well designed app.
