Yeah i get ya...

In any case, I will continue spreading the good word of gpui, hopefully more people try it out

you're not wrong, but honestly this didn't come in mind when I chose to make this. I just really liked the API surface of gpui, base-ui, and wanted to make something that I could use for myself, and that other people might find helpful

there is also a small growing circle of people interested in maintaining and extending gpui from what I see, which is nice!

as for compiling to HTML, it unfortunately renders in a HTML <canvas>, which was how Flutter rendered in the web :( but I can only hope it compiles to that in the future!

Yep! GPUI added WASM compilation targets in Feb!
