Hi!

I want to build an application that provides a camera input on Windows in Flutter.

The camera package only supports Android, iOS and the Web, for now. It's not supported on the Windows desktop platform, yet.

One way to go would be to create a Web (PWA) application. The issue here is that the camera package has some limitations on the Web platform. Namely, the support for streams of images is not present on the Web platform.

Are there some other usable camera packages around? What alternatives or strategies would you suggest?
