Reviewer scorecard

Builder
80/100 · ship

Hot reload, custom rendering engine, and Dart is surprisingly pleasant. Best for custom UI that needs pixel-perfect cross-platform.

80/100 · ship

Guaranteed valid JSON from LLMs — no retry loops needed. The FSM approach is mathematically elegant and reliable.

Skeptic
45/100 · skip

Dart limits the developer pool. React Native with TypeScript/JavaScript has a much larger talent market.

80/100 · ship

If you need structured outputs from open models, Outlines is the correct solution. Not a hack, but a proper constraint system.

Futurist
45/100 · skip

Google's commitment level is uncertain given their track record. React Native has more ecosystem momentum.

80/100 · ship

Constrained generation will be built into every inference engine. Outlines pioneered the approach.
