Python needs to be in less places not more.

I believe Python has done more harm than good to the industry.

Its by nature very inefficient, it leads you in the direction to some very poor abstractions (inheritance, monkey patching, mixins etc) and as a result code that is very prone to subtle bugs and issues.

It deserves all the love it gets as an approachable language, but it deserves a lot more flack for everything else.

Using a to-do list app as the first example to advertise a new app framework is absolutely wild in Q3 2026.

Is it more fashionable to build an AI harness?

We should go back to petstore examples.

A blog in 15 minutes would be great.

That's fine, but a blog doesn't seem technically more demanding or interesting than a to-do list

Specially one looking so bad.

Interesting, looks like this is a framework built on Flutter.

Yeah, I have been doing a small poc for mobile, then did a web export (why not) and the entire web app is one giant <canvas> element.

I have never written web app with Flutter so this caught me by surprise.

Looks really interesting, but I notice that Bluetooth isn't in the supported services.

Sort of limits how useful it would be for me - Bluetooth is one of the only reasons I'd do a native app instead of PWA.
