Even if Google laid off staff for the Flutter and Dart team, I don’t think those two will be going anywhere any time soon.
Mostly because a huge majority Android ecosystem is based on them, still a stupid decisions of them.
I’m mostly just biased because I do native mobile development but flutter has always seemed like a false economy to me. You’re trying to build cross platform but it’ll take more than 2x as long as building each platform to get the same quality of experience. So either you have a shittier experience or you take even longer than true native dev.
Why not?
I would argue so, because Google has quite a reputation for killing projects: https://killedbygoogle.com
Especially with a programming language or framework, you don’t want to invest in it, only to find out that it’s going on the chopping block.

I hope this doesn’t age like milk.

But I’m obviously very biased here.
