> It is native

It isn’t native in this context; As a sibling comment mentioned, OniVim2 uses revery[0], which uses it’s own widgets (not native ones) like flutter[1].

Quoting from my old comment[2]:

> We really should be trying to use the native GUI toolkit (or cross-platform native UI libraries like libui), not using Flutter-esque libraries that draws everything from scratch.

> Coherent UI is a very important point to users IMO. Users can assume that some special feature from App X will also work on App Y.
