Mobile Tech: post #427 — TG.ME

Mobile TechIntroducing Pixer, the fastest image library for Dart & Flutter. Resize, crop, transform, powered by Rust. 10-60x faster than the image package. https://lazebny.io/pixer-the-fastest-image-library-for-dart-flutter
Influenced by Pixer, my friend Yakov explored calling Haskell (it’s his deliberate choice 😅) from Dart 🎯

In his article, he explains how to do that and provides a few interesting benchmarks about when and when not to use FFI

Calling Haskell from Flutter for fun (and some profit)
A pilot micro-framework for calling Haskell from Dart over FFI, where the same C ABI is written exactly once via a tiny Template Haskell splice and a Dart codegen step that reads an embedded manifest. With a worked Flutter example and benchmarks.
