Is the Web version of Flutter still using canvas? I tried it a while back and it was just a canvas rendering everything. That makes SEO impossible. It's also useless for accessibility/screen readers. Please correct me if I am wrong.


The answer to both of these things is the accessibility object model.

You weren’t wrong historically but you aren’t right currently.

Flutter web including the canvas rendering option has proper accessibility as of today AFAIK.


But can I copy text? Search the page? Right-click to open a link in a private window?


But you're still SOL if you want to use an ad blocker, right?


That’s a feature, not a bug. (From Google’s perspective)



I'm curious if anyone can comment on their experience using the HTML renderer.


Very slow. Not yet ready for production.
