+    The engine is Flutter's platform-agnostic logic that's written
+    in native code, mostly C++.
+
+    The main responsibilities of the engine are as follows:
+
+    1. Exposes the `dart:ui` API, which are the low-level primitives
+       that the Flutter framework builds upon.
+    2. Converts low-level drawing commands into pixels (also called
+       _rasterization_, this includes Impeller and Skia).
+    3. Responsible for launching and managing Dart's runtime.
+    4. Responsible for laying out text.
+    5. Responsible for asset resolution.
