Really hope this project succeeds as somebody heavily invested in a Flutter app with a Rust backend Dioxus could be great for us so we will continue to follow closely.

Flutters hot reloading is awesome but some days I feel like it is death by a thousand cuts working with Flutter (so many unresolved bugs) so to have a cross-platform framework that wouldn't require Flutter and Dart would be great.

Wish the Dioxus team a lot of success!

Same! I inherited a Flutter app from a previous team, and while it's OK it feels kind of like developing on a Galapagos island — by which I mean, we'll never use Dart in any other context, and Flutter's web story doesn't really work for most kinds of apps).

I think Dioxus actually fits into a fairly unique set of slots. There's Tauri, with which it shares a lot of stuff, but Tauri's web story is mostly "build it yourself". There's Leptos, which arguably has a better web app story, but lacks most of the rest.

It is also heartening to see how these projects really do share a lot of the building blocks and don't seem to be overly competitive.

What kinds of bugs are you talking about. I’ve used it for years and it’s been nothing but incredibly stable.
