What's the purpose of the project? about flutter-app-template HOT 3 CLOSED

This isn't an unreasonable question, is there a reason this was closed @dvc94ch ? As far as I understand so far, flutter-rs allows you to embed and run flutter UIs in Rust applications. So unlike normal flutter, Rust is actually creating the window and such. On Linux I think this comes with the advantage of not depending on Gtk like flutter does by default on linux.

As far as allowing you to write Rust code that can be used in a Flutter UI, I haven't seen a real example of that yet, but I'm assuming that flutter-rs is going to provide some sort of functionality around that.

Ah, here is an example of a flutter plugin that hooks in Rust functionality with the flutter UI:

https://github.com/flutter-rs/flutter-video-plugin

The magic is here:

https://github.com/flutter-rs/flutter-video-plugin/blob/99b6133b8cdee38432d45c762c12318818ff1ad7/src/plugin.rs#L48

from flutter-app-template.

I'd suggest looking into iced if you're interested in ui for rust applications.
