The issue is a combination of priorities (I personally use Flutter for
app development) and the current work being done on properly supporting
Python on mobile devices and Web Assembly. As that support matures it
will solve a lot of the problems that pyqtdeploy currently needs to, so
it makes sense to let that happen.
