Flutter: Google’s cross-platform mobile UI framework
Flutter is leaving the beta phase and is now ready for the first preview. Until the release of version 1.0, Google wants to dedicate itself to the removal of bugs and the stabilization of the software development kit (SDK). Flutter is designed to accelerate the development of cross-platform mobile apps and consists of a C ++ written rendering engine for Android and iOS and a framework written in Google’s object-oriented programming language Dart. The Flutter SDK generates native iOS and Android apps from a common codebase and offers matching UI themes for both operating systems to make them look like native apps.
The Flutter team is now working with the release of the preview version mainly to improve the video package, the development of Firebase support and support for older iPad and iPhone variants.
