[Feature Request] Webassembly (Wasm) support in Amplify Flutter

[MarlonJD]

Description

Amplify-flutter library should support WebAssembly web build support. Now we can build with --wasm parameter on flutter build web. It's on beta on flutter channel, but it will arrive soon.

When I try to build flutter build web --wasm. It will gives these errors like this table. So if we want to support web assembly build. we should replace package:js, dart:js and dart:js_util libraries to dart:js_interop and/or dart:js_interop_unsafe.

Sources: https://dart.dev/interop/js-interop, https://dart.dev/interop/js-interop/past-js-interop, https://dart.dev/interop/js-interop/usage, https://dart.dev/interop/js-interop/js-types

I couldn't understand fully how can we achieve this, documents not crystal clear for migration. If anyone can help maybe we can do this.

Hello @MarlonJD - Thanks for taking the time to open the issue and the PR. We will take a look at this and let you know when we have updates.

[priyanshu-sekhar]

Are there any updates on this ? This is going to be a huge blocker for applications looking for wasm compilation now that Flutter's stable channel officially supports it.

[Jordan-Nelson]

@priyanshu-sekhar At this moment I do not have an update. Some of the packages are straight forward to add Wasm support to, while others will take a bit of time. I don't have a timeline on when Wasm will be supported at the moment.

For the time being, if you would like to see Wasm support in amplify flutter please feel free to 👍 the original issue.
