Hi
Thanks for making the awesome app.
I will use this for my family.
I am so excited and want to contribute to this project in various ways.
But in my opinion the technology stack for this project is too diverse.
Besides, this project has recently made a web with Svelte.
You have Flutter skills, so why did you choose Svelte?
What do you think about integrating web and app with Flutter?

flutter should be probably a more flexible solution

Hi @xpwmaosldk, the reason I am not going with Flutter Web is that it is still quite new, I am confident with Flutter mobile because of its proven track record. And the resources for using a web framework/library are more on the Javascript side.

With all the intricacy of web development, I somehow understand it better using the traditional web stack vs using Flutter Web.

I believe building an application shouldn't be limited to technology diversification. And building a good one should further push that point, as you probably know that a lot of large application uses a variety of technology to bundle everything into the final product. I know this might be hard for others to contribute, but like in engineering, everything is a trade-off.
