When I first started making the app, Dart existed, but Flutter didn't. Then Flutter existed, but didn't support the web. I thought that was still true, but I just checked, and Flutter for web [https://flutter.dev/web] does now exist, as a technical preview ("When trying Flutter for web, you can expect to experience crashes and missing features.")

When Flutter came out, I looked into it, wondering if it might be worth switching my approach (I figured most of the Dart code would probably be able to stay the same). There were other deal breakers at the time, but I don't recall them.

Maybe once Flutter for web is production ready, it would make a compelling alternative, but for now it isn't an option. I'm not sure if would have made things harder or easier. But I'll be curious to check it out.
