Dart is faster than javascript.

    A snail is fast then JS, I would hope a dart is too.

    I mean, if you compile it, probably so

    No shit
    But flutter/dart doesnt belong in web due to being so bloated (multiple Mb for a static hello world site), laggy scrolling, no accessibility, can't select text, etc..
    Basically trying to reinvent the wheel but in a much worse way

    It probably is, when you make it a native app. But when you compile for web, it is simply a bloated / inferior website compared to those made with JS framework.

    @daniel-wu both of these scenarios are bloated and shouldn't exist tbh

    @LotsOfCaffeine I used to be someone who use Vanilla JS only, after retiring JQuery from my codes. I tried learning Vue JS recently, and I think the convenience outweights the extra CPU/memory cost. I love how clean and tiny the build result is. Also we need to be smart with the usage of reactive components. Use it only if it's necessary; to reduce the amount of JS events that the browser needs to listen to.

    I have tried compiling flutter to web app too. The result is a bloated website with unclean HTML/CSS.

    @daniel-wu I can't comment on vue vs react or any other one of these frameworks/libs

    I avoid web dev like the plague, I feel like almost anything JavaScript related gets bloated very quickly

    Big fan of static site generators though
