Flutter needs 1.64GB disk space, that's not a light install. Unless I build the app beforehand as others have suggested.

Of course you'd build the app, why would you make the user install Flutter as a development environment? A built Flutter desktop app can be had in ~100 MB, as well as being able to be on Windows, macOS and Linux with minimal effort. For example, https://www.superlist.com/
