flutter_rust_bridge

Agreed! I've been using Flutter + Rust (using https://github.com/fzyzcjy/flutter_rust_bridge , which streamlines FFI bindings management). It's a joy to work with and run on all major desktop/mobile platforms with little effort, minus system APIs like win32.

Flutter plus Rust is the same stack I’m using for my music app. Thanks to the awesome flutter_rust_bridge it’s very easy to use them together and leverage both their strengths. https://github.com/fzyzcjy/flutter_rust_bridge

From the same author that did flutter_rust_bridge :) https://github.com/fzyzcjy/flutter_rust_bridge Really nice work!

This is the same author as the awesome flutter rust bridge: https://github.com/fzyzcjy/flutter_rust_bridge Thanks for everything you've done for the dart community!

Hi, I made a bridge (https://github.com/fzyzcjy/flutter_rust_bridge v2.0.0) between Flutter and Rust, which auto translates syntaxes like arbitrary types, &mut, async, traits, results, closure (callback), lifetimes, etc. The goal is to make a bridge between the two, seamlessly as if working in one single language. Then, as an example, I showed how to write Rust applications with GUI by utilizing Flutter. That is discussed in the link in details. To play with it, please visit the GitHub repo, or refer to the end of the article for detailed folders and commands. When I first released 1.0.0 years ago, it only contained few features compared to today. It is the result of the hard work of contributors and me, and many thanks to all the contributors!

Nice, I use automerge with Rust via autosurgeon [0] which is their Rust wrapper, but looks like it hasn't been updated recently, any updates on that? I'm guessing with a small team that web support is taking priority right now, as I'm running this on my Rust client (technically Flutter but via the FFI package flutter_rust_bridge [1]) and server (via the Axum web server crate).

Things have improved though last time I checked 4 years ago. Flutter UI kit is definitely more complete and not fragmented as RN UI kits, or even React UI kits. On top of that you have official: - firebase - supabase - revenue cat - stripe - google maps - google ads / analytics - grpc - webview - tensorflow just to name a few - there is even more community one e.g: lottie, mobx, just_audio etc. interop seems also improved: cffi got improved and been out of beta for a while and they also added FFIgen [0] that can generate bindings to C and Rust C rust flutter bridge [1] - even though not official is very popular and well maintained. So you can use vast cross-platform crates if you need something more advanced and low latency like for Audio you have CPAL [0] https://pub.dev/packages/ffigen [1] https://github.com/fzyzcjy/flutter_rust_bridge

maybe some ideas about interop can be taken from flutter module: https://github.com/fzyzcjy/flutter_rust_bridge

Not a Flutter Dev, but have you tried 'flutter_rust_bridge' [0]. Seems provide some interop between flutter and rust and looks like a popular and active project. I'm native mobile dev and just curious about this kind of interop myself. If it's seamless then looks like good balance to do mobile front-end in flutter and mobile backend in rust.

See also, Autosurgeon (with a 0.3.0 release today), which is a higher level API on top of Automerge for Rust: I'm building a mobile app with a server backend, and I was looking for resources to build them in an offline-first way (since unlike on the browser, people expect to use apps offline, if they can, such as fitness or habit trackers). I found the concept of conflict-free replicated data types (CRDTS) interesting as it allows you to have fully offline experiences while also having a conflict-free syncing experience. I was looking for some good libraries and came across automerge [0] and yrs [1], but both had some rough APIs as they're primarily low-level Rust libraries that are wrapped by higher-level TypeScript APIs. Autosurgeon wraps the low-level API of automerge to make it much more ergonomic, closer to the TypeScript experience,

Do you mean this https://github.com/fzyzcjy/flutter_rust_bridge ?

Depends on what your requirements are. If it "modern" design (let's not start the millionth discussion on what native/modern design is here), that is also supported on mobile/web, then I would say go with flutter as UI and something like rust as your main language to write your business logic in [1]. You can even use regular c++ with their FFI [2]. [1] https://github.com/fzyzcjy/flutter_rust_bridge [2] https://docs.flutter.dev/development/platform-integration/c-...
