Flutter is an open-source UI software development kit. It is used to develop cross-platform applications for Android, iOS, Windows, Google Fuchsia, Linux, Mac, and Web platforms from a single codebase.
Flutter is Google’s SDK for crafting beautiful, fast user experiences for mobile, web, and desktop. It runs with existing code, is used by developers and organizations around the world, and is completely free.
Flutter helps users create beautiful, fast apps, with a productive, extensible, and open development model, whether users are targeting iOS or Android, web, Windows, macOS, Linux, or embedding it as the UI toolkit for your choice of platform.
Beautiful user experiences- Designers should be able to deliver their full creative vision without being forced to water it down due to limitations of the underlying framework. Flutter’s layered architecture gives users control over every pixel on the screen and its powerful compositing capabilities let users overlay and animate graphics, video, text, and controls without limitation. Flutter comprises a full set of widgets that deliver pixel-perfect experiences whether you’re building for iOS (Cupertino) or Android, along with support for creating or customizing totally new visual components.
Fast results- Flutter is fast. It’s powered by the same hardware-accelerated 2D graphics library that supports Chrome and Android: Skia. Flutter was architected to support glitch-free, jank-free graphics at the native speed of the device of a user. The world-class Dart platform powers the flutter code, which enables compilation to 32-bit and 64-bit ARM machine code for iOS and Android, as well as JavaScript for the web and Intel x64 for desktop devices.
Productive development- Flutter offers a stateful hot reload, allowing users to modify their codes and see the results instantly without restarting the app or losing its state.
Extensible and open model- Flutter works with any development tool or none at all, and additionally includes editor plug-ins for both Visual Studio Code and Android Studio / IntelliJ. Flutter provides tens of thousands of packages to speed their development, regardless of the target platform. And retrieving other native code is easy, with support for both FFI and platform-specific APIs.
