## Code push approaches
Many approaches one could take:
1. Compile Release Flutter with DartVM in JIT mode
Implementation Difficulty: Medium
Application Performance: Unreliable (due to JIT compiles), but good once warmed up.

Application Performance: Unreliable (due to JIT compiles), but good once warmed up.\
Platform Restrictions: Some restrict executing dynamically compiled code (either technically or by store agreement)
1. Replace libapp.so with new libapp.so
Implementation Difficulty: Simple
Application Performance: Great (AOT level performance)
Platform Restrictions: Some restrict loading dynamic libraries (either technically or by store agreement)
Developer Experience: OK (need to recompile for each platform)

Notes:
* A naive implementation has large update sizes (can be mitigated)
1. Flutter Web (JS or WASM) + C++ Engine
Implementation Difficulty: Hard (no known implementations)
Application Performance: Unknown, likely good? (JS JIT level performance)
Platform Restrictions: None known.

Application Performance: Unknown, likely good? (JS JIT level performance)\
Platform Restrictions: None known.\
Notes:
* No per-platform work for developers.
* Possible developer headaches due to Dart -> JS compilation quirks.
1. Flutter Web (JS or WASM) in a WebView
Implementation Difficulty: Medium
Application Performance: Poor (untested)
Platform Restrictions: None known.
1. (Custom) Dart Interpreter (for some or all application code)
Implementation Difficulty: Hard
Application Performance: Unknown
Developer Experience: Unknown

Pros:
* There have been several implementations of this approach, I'm not aware
of any being publicly available/supported at this time.
