Writing plugins/bindings for native code in flutter doesn't look fun. Almost 100 lines of code to write binding for function that doesn't take any parameters and returns simple 'int' (int getBatteryLevel()). This just looks even worse than JNI to me. Don't want to even thing how long time it would take me to write bindings for function that do image processing. https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/master/examples/plat...

Which is sad because I would really want to have some fast and easy access to useful c++ libraries without wasting lots of time writing and maintaining tons of bindings for Java, ObjC, C.

We are on the verge of VR and AR and I don't see how flutter can help e.g. processing >100fps Video Feed using OpenCV library. The demo they presented on stage with ML and smile detection had quite big latency. I wouldn't call it real time.

So far it seems the easiest way to call c++ functions is using ObjC++ or Qt framework.
