If you want something multi-platform Flutter and the Dart programming language are the way to go.

Some issues that don't make the @protected annotation as useful as it could be are that @protected elements are not hidden the in tab completion outside their scope and protected is not being inherited (and can thus be called from outside the library on those subclasses).

If you're willing to pick up another language, I actually think Dart is the best overall programming language for young beginners. It's very streamlined and well thought-out. It doesn't have all of the complexities of languages like C# and Java, but it still has everything you'd want for application development.

Google's Flutter UI framework and Dart programming language are the best way to do desktop development right now. It supports desktop app development for Windows, MacOS, and Linux. You can also compile the same app for mobile on Android and iOS.

Flutter is a mobile app development framework based on the Dart programming language, developed by Google. One can develop Android apps, iOS apps, web apps, and desktop apps using the same code with the Flutter Framework. Flutter has a large community, which is why it is the fastest-growing app development framework ever.

Dart isn't showing up yet? I thought C# would be bigger.

Flutter arrived in 2017 as a Google project promising scalable cross-platform mobile development. It offers a batteries-included approach and comes with a comprehensive set of Material UI-themed components for building your interface. It uses declarative rendering, like React Native, but relies on the Dart programming language instead of JavaScript.

Dart is a client-optimized language for fast apps on any platform.

Since last year Amplify Flutter includes support for Web and Desktop. As we are looking to reach users both on mobile as also on the desktop, choosing a cross-platform development tool like Flutter seemed to be an obvious choice. Christian and I are a small team, and we want to focus on building a simple UI quickly without the need to implement for multiple platforms and Flutter allows exactly that.

But hey could be worse, the issue concerning Color.lerp not using premultiplied alpha has been open for three years and its again one of those issues where there was a PR with fix made but never merged with little explanation to the reasoning: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/48534

Now if we could somehow get the corner smoothing/super-ellipse/squircle situation resolved aswell. ContinuousRectangleBorder implementation is just plain wrong: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/91523

If you are new to app development, consider Flutter. You will make a cross platform app, that means it compiles to Kotlin (Android) and Swift (IOS). The syntax is much simpler than Java. There is also a OSM package called flutter map.
