Which embedder did you guys end up using, Toyota or flutter-elinux

flutter-elinux -- By the Sony guys yea? We use that one!

  • Okay so we ended up using that too, it was really well done and documented.

    But in hindsight I think flutter-pi or the Toyota one might have been a better investment. The lead engineer in Sony behind the elinux project left for Nvidia. The Toyota one uses Wayland, you can't make it directly hook into DRM. So you'd need a minimal compositor to get it running.

    • Flutter Pi had other issues. It required systemd as a dependency just for the event loop which we ended up having to hack out. The Sony embedded project is still being updated and active. And the code quality is much better
