You can export the flutter build as HTML, but the point with flutter is not to be a ”website”, it’s supposed to be seen as a ”web-app”.

If you are going to create simple static homepage or interactive website, I don’t think Flutter is the right tool. Full fledged cross-platform applications is what Flutter is meant for.

I agree, who cares if a website supports accessibility, no one in the world is vision impaired and uses screen readers right? right?

That's not even my point.

Websites should still support accessability, I would even go as far to say it's a must. I just don't want people to mix up web-applications with websites. I've seen some people create a simple "websites" with Flutter which is totally pointless because it could just been created with html + css.

There is also a section in the Flutter docs that talks about accessability and how you can create accessable apps but I don't know how well it translates to Flutter web.
