This works very well. It's super fast and responsive. But please add a gun pointing at Clippy that lets the user end him in one, clear action. I otherwise had to keep clicking through to get rid of him.

Your tech choices (WebGPU/WebAudio) make for ultra-fast load times that easily beat Kdenlive (my usual go-to editor) without even needing a download. But have you tried using Tauri to provide a "native" version?

That's what it was! I really, really wanted to use Dart because I love Flutter (only ever used it through FlutterFlow and was duly impressed) but I couldn't get around the binary size, mainly because I'm supporting WASM as a backend so it needs tiny binaries.

How did you handle the WASM backend? That part was extremely impressive to me. But aren't the binaries practically too large for WASM?

In any case, really love what you're doing and will be following progress. Outstanding work!

Wow, the website excels at showcasing the framework!

What are compiled binaries like with this and Dart? I've been building a sort of similar framework and engine in Nim, mostly because I can get binaries under 200Kb. I looked into implementing the concept in other languages but don't recall much with Dart.

Also, how does this carry over to Flutter? Is this similar enough that minimal changes would be needed to move a TUI app into Flutter's graphical domain?

Well done! I'm a little confused about the theme customization though. Is the idea to feed config.py into ChatGPT and ask it for a custom version of it? If so, have you already done that?

Also, I noticed there are shaders in that config. Have you tried doing special effects with that like bloom or CRT effects?
