Thanks for this insight! Very interesting. I think in the long run, the apps I’m interested in making would benefit from being able to utilize undecorated windows and have an “AppBar”-like implementation that mimicked a GTK headerbar. I think that would also make development of familiar looking (Yaru+GTK) apps more accessible for devs coming from flutter for mobile, or interested in keeping as much pure dart as possible.
Example: Creating a file manager put in a breadcrumb using https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_breadcrumb in the headerbar
Regardless, very interested in trying out the options you described.
On the topic of multi-window, has anyone ever brought up the possibility of… I guess I’d call them “dock points”, or areas where a widget could be docked/moved and reactive to different spots, and also pulled out to work as a floating window? I’m not sure how it would even work with the widget tree but guessing it should be technically possible with just multi-window existing at all, even if there’s no easy implementation.
Example: Simple pixel art creator where you can re-arrage or even tab widgets to cater to the artist.
