Meet Flutter; Google’s New Framework for building Cross-Platform Apps

Bringing business to mobile with native apps have become a relatively expensive business these days. At least the people who have to set up numerous platform friendly native and web apps thinks like this. Bringing a pin-point answer to the complexity of making and maintaining an app on different platforms is Flutter. The open source project by Google, is now available on Github with ample options for seamless mobile app development in iOS and Android.

Why it’s So Special

Before Flutter, many solutions like PhoneGap and AppDeck were developed, but with limited functionalities like data and background processing, advanced graphics and much more. But Flutter is a one step gesture recognition software that uses its rendering engine to build apps and doesn’t depend on OEM widgets or webviews.

Flutter lets you build your own widgets with seamless, fast performance that can be later used to create beautiful apps not devoid of any performance issues in terms of graphics and functionality.

Not for Mobiles Only

Flutter is also enabled for building apps that can be integrated with other smart devices like augmented screens, smart watch and strap, VR and lots more. Flutter runs on both Linux and Mac and support for windows is also on the way.

How it helps?

Flutter strives to eradicate the existing challenges in HTML and web views by concentrating on three things: Control, Performance and Fidelity. Being an open source platform, it's built with the mix of C/C++ with various other languages and engines to get the core things done in minutes

Dart

Google developers have decided to put Dart as the official language for building cross-platform codes. Dart is familiar to Js, Java and c#, so it will be quite easy to learn it quickly and start making real apps. Dart is quick to load, has easy to find libraries and supports high-end graphics prolifically.

Adaptability

Flutter even provide over-the network updates which are otherwise not possible i.e. To surpass the play store formalities and get updates directly. Flutter will be available for building apps that are compatible with Android 4.1 or higher and further than iOS8.
