Well the current deprecation is the Android APIs. You can still use the web APIs.

This type of thing has made reddit unusable lately and I hope ~~it doesn't show up here~~ lemmy has a better defense against "subtle spam."
How many CEOs do you know who don't act like they're made of solid gold?
If someone posts an angry rant about your company and you email them to say "you're wrong and I'm sorry you feel that way" that makes you an "unhinged ... freak?" This is not the president sending the secret service to your college dorm room lol.
How is BSD doing in general? I thought the projects were in decline lately.
What I mean to say is that Google isn't invested in native android either. It's been repeatedly strip mined by first-timers looking for a quick promotion and left to burn.
Things got so bad that Google gave up on native Views and created Jetpack Compose, which has been a source of many complaints related to performance.
In 2024 Flutter has instant hot-reload, and the "native" (but 100% bundled) solution still requires a complete reinstall on the device. In fact, Dart can compile to native code (or JIT) without an issue, yet Kotlin Native ~~is barely in GA in the new compiler~~ support has been lagging while the new compiler isn't out of beta and is still poorly supported by tooling.
Consider the absurdity: React Native is the only true native framework out of RN, Jetpack Compose, and Flutter. And all of this barely scratches the surface of the tooling problems that Flutter 99% avoids by allowing development on desktop, web or iOS simulator.
It's really neat how many no_std I've seen popping up lately. I'm hoping stuff like Hermit takes off and we can finally stop worrying about Log4Shell or cURL.
I won't be recommending that anyone use Dart or Flutter on new projects.
You seem to think Google cares at all. Android has been languishing and Flutter is lightyears ahead. KMP is junk compared to what Flutter has accomplished with a fraction of the bells and whistles.
I just hate reading it. I wish it looked more like Kotlin and less like JavaScript 😭
Well, the CORS thing is just your browser protecting you from an XSS attack. So the API just needs to advertise the origins that are permitted. Like writing "stolen from xyz" on your tools.
The tricky part with electrical will be which things get missed. Like finding out the microwave has its own circuit that's shared with the bathroom fan or something. What you could do is buy 50 IoT devices and record which ones connect to your wifi after you start flipping breakers. You might be able to do some clever bracket to determine which outlets are on which circuit, but hardwired appliances will be more manual.
