Good morning, all. Has anyone explored writing phone apps using Electric?

I think we need Flutter/Dart to do this effectively, but some people have used Electric in the past to make drop-in enhancements to their existing apps. I recall someone early on in Electric's history using it to make an appointment selector on a calendar widget. I am not privy to the hundreds of actual uses for Electric in the wild like @dustingetz is, though. Maybe he has some more insight into this

a couple people have explored it, electric is designed for a persistent connection though. v3 has unfinished support for keeping the client running when the websocket drops and comes back, but it's currently disabled due to bugs, and not exactly a high priority

Ah. Well, I have my hands full right now learning enough to duplicate low-code systems like AppSheets. Loving it. 😀
