If you want to use this in a business, either for an internal tool or for an application you sell, this is a horrible idea. Godot doesn't display native widgets, so it has no support for accessibility, for example to screen readers and blind users. Some people think blind people bring too little profit to care, but this is wrong for one single reason. There are some laws mandating accessibility, and more laws are being passed, for example in the…

It's probably easier for them since they might need specialized components and because they're already familiar with the tools. There's a very strong advantage unique to them. There are alot of edge cases and broader…
