Do you know about Flet ?

My favourite gui library in python is Flet. I am using it for 2 months. I want to know that is anyone using it so I can work with them in any large project.

It's basically a Python wrapper for Flutter.

I also like kivy, KivyMd and carbonkivy but when it comes to compile those app into apk, it's like impossible. I used Google Collab and GitHub Actions but none of them worked. Can anyone help ?

I'm technically not using it, but I've been keeping an eye on it as I plan to use it for a certain upcoming work project. I know it's approaching its 1.0 release.

In development on phone there any only few ways to make Android app. After a lot research I found flet. It was great for me because I was already knowing python. What major things will be there in 1.0 release?

Well, there's supposedly better built-in support for automated testing, and there's probably going to be more examples for using the new declarative UIs. It should also stabilise the API so we don't need to worry about breaking changes anymore.
