Question: Is there any way to provide a terminal connection with a canvas to a Flutter app being hosted on a non-gui Linux server?
Context: We have a lot of character-based tools running on (CentOS) Linux server. It would be great to write them (or a wrapper around them) as GUI apps using Flutter. I don't need full window management, just things like GUI components, mouse text selection, cut-n-paste, drag-n-drop, SDI design UI.
Is there any way to accomplish that without installing desktop software on the server? I know there's a Raspberry Pi setup for flutter apps on Linux WITHOUT installing desktop. Would anything like that work?

I have a problem configuring bi-directional text support with Linux.
On the iAccess ODBC driver for windows there is a GUI app called cwbprops.exe and it has a button that sorts it, but I don't know what would be the equivalent action in Linux and can't find anything online.
I am running on an ubuntu docker container.
Thanks!
I currently have a local basic Yii2 website with an external database on XAMPP. Is there a way I could convert this application to a native desktop application that can run on Windows and the Linux OS?
I wish to build the desktop app myself and not use automatic builders like Web2Desk
It'll come as an .exe file which can be run to install the app. The app would not need any 3rd-party software (for the database for example). I'm thinking kind of like the Slack desktop application.
Can you please help?
ElectronJS is cross-platform framework to create desktop apps for Mac, Windows and Linux.
But if I make an app using responsive web design for mobile views, will the distribution for Linux work for Ubuntu Touch, Sailfish OS, Mobian, and many other Linux mobile touch operating systems?
In Sailfish OS it would not work, because no Electron in SailfishOS, if you want, you can try build it by your self (Electron should support Wayland platform, but in SailfishOS we have old Waland protocol version, in Ubuntu Touch, on Mir, it has more chance to make electorn work, dont know about mobian nothing)
Is it possible to create Desktop Environment like KDE or GNOME using Electron framework?
How this can be achieved?
Electron is a Node.js Server with Chromium as a Frontend. So you can build cross platform applications using all the power of Node. That's nice but not even near the tasks and settings a desktop enviroment like GNOME or KDE have to manage.
I see absolutely no way achieving what you are looking for.
I want to write an application for Windows which displays its GUI on a Linux machine.
My idea is to use GTK+, compiler would be MS Visual C++, I know that the gtk libraries are available for Windows, but need a push into the right direction to start.
Will I need some kind of client app on the Linux side as well?
