What is the status of this project? It looks like there hasn't been any activity for a while, and this project never quite reached production-ready status.

Does anyone know of an alternative? I can't even seem to find a commercial option for a business rule engine native to dart/flutter.

Hi, thank's for the interest in this project! Currently both @AntonDanneels and me are preoccupied with other hobby projects, and our jobs. So there is no further development planned.

The version on the main branch is quite usable however. But it's not the most efficient implementation, something that we started developing but unfortunately never finished. We were implementing the RETE algorithm, and if you dare you're free to continue working on this on the feature/rete branch.

I'm also not aware of any alternatives for flutter, since we mostly gave up on that technology stack.

Thanks for the reply! I was afraid that would be the response. I'm currently just evaluating my options for an up-coming project, but if I decide to go down this route further, I'll likely be building on what you have started here.

This may be out of scope for conversation here, but I'm going to ask anyway. What caused you to "give up" on the dart/flutter technology stack? What have you been using instead? A quick scan of your github repos doesn't definitely indicate what you now prefer.
