professional-programming VS Flutter

The inclusion of the perspective section: https://github.com/charlax/professional-programming?tab=read... I think is really smart. Same for personal productivity. Two things that can dramatically change how and what you end up studying and doing with your time / life.

I did a coding bootcamp and yeah the frontend knowledge they taught was useful, but I could have learned that online for free. Looking back, the far more valuable thing I learned was how to discipline myself and my time - that was the first time in my life I was truly disciplined and mindful in how I spent my time. I also got perspective I'd never seen before: there was some folks in my cohort that were in their 30s and 40s and undergoing career change, and I learned two things from them: First, don't stress too much, your life has much more flexibility than you might expect (this truth is borne out, they all have perfectly successful careers in their new lives as engineers), and second, make a great use of the time you have.

Bog-standard advice we all know, but to witness it firsthand from people living it and sharing it is different. The shared article in the github is incredible: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/sep/07/termin...

I often wonder why I don't see more of these sorts of articles. From watching a family member slowly die of cancer, and from reading books like "When Breath Becomes Air," I'm guessing it's some combination of exhaustion, disability, and a new set of priorities that doesn't really involve death blogging. Still, I find these kinds of writings more poignant than most things I read.

1. Professional Programming

Professional Programming. As reported, The goal of this page is to make you a more proficient developer. If you have excellent resources, you can try to open a PR and include them here. But in any csae, I wanted to include this because it seems super interesting.

Deploying Dart functions to AWS Lambda enables you to utilize them not only within AWS Lambda but also integrate them with services like Amazon API Gateway, allowing you to leverage them in Flutter applications as well. This unified codebase in Dart offers great convenience.

Thanks - that link does not appear to be open access, anyways I don't think I've seen it. I'm familiar with Flutter at a high-level (Kevin Moore gave a great talk on it at Wasm I/O), and I think other than requiring users to work in Dart, it is probably one of the most powerful ways to do cross-platform UI today.

Worth noting that their original GPU backend was Skia, and now they are retooling around Flutter GPU (Impeller)[0], which is kind of designed similarly as an abstract rendering interface over platform-specific GPU APIs.

If you are considering Electron/React then I would suggest adding Flutter to your list of technologies to consider. It uses Dart (a language similar to C#) and has a lot going for it… relatively quick to get up to speed with, fantastic developer experience (e.g., hot reload, great IDE support, good development tools) and very strong cross-platform support: it generates native iOS, Android, MacOS, Windows and Linux executables. Check it out: https://flutter.dev/

You can find the React Native documentation here and Flutter Documentation here.
