Whenever I discover a new GUI toolkit, my first question is always “is it more native than the Web?” For reference, here are some ways Web apps have better system integration than Flutter: System fonts, font hinting settings, and font fallback settings. System text navigation shortcuts. System scrollbar visibility, thickness, and click settings/behavior. System highlight menus and controls (on touchscreens). System display scaling settings. System reduced-motion settings (An API is documented, but I have never used a Flutter app that actually disables animations. I may be wrong). System reduced-transparency settings. System forced-colors mode (Windows High Contrast Mode). System color palettes (some browsers support setting default colors without necessarily forcing the palette). System media controls (play/pause/skip, current track, e.g. using MPRIS on freedesktop platforms).
