Flutter is one of the top technologies right now. It’s a great choice for both iOS and Android apps as well as other operating systems because it’s a cross-platform technology that enables you to build apps for multiple platforms with a single codebase. Making apps with Flutter is also very easy and fun for developers, even those who just started learning Dart. Without further ado, let’s jump into some of the best apps made with Flutter.

Flutter: Overview

We’ve previously covered the pros and cons of Flutter on our blog but here’s a quick overview if you haven’t read that article.

  • Flutter was acquired by Google and is now developed by this tech giant. It’s an open source SDK that uses Dart language for programming.
  • It’s a cross-platform mobile app development framework to quickly and efficiently build excellent mobile apps focused on performance and user experience.
  • Some of its best features include Hot Reload (which enables developers to view changes they’ve made in the app in real time) and the Flutter App Builder (a feature added by Google after acquiring Flutter that enables developers to build mobile apps the same way you build Lego).
  • Since the Flutter framework came out it has gained significant popularity around the world and became serious competition for other cross-platform frameworks like React Native. More and more developers are using Flutter and it was one of the most trending technologies on social media last year.
  • It’s very easy to learn, even if you’ve never used Dart before (some of our developers learn to use Flutter and Dart in just two weeks!).

Why Companies Build With Flutter?

There’s several reasons why many companies, including Google, decide to use Flutter for their mobile apps. First of all, building native apps (a separate app for iOS and Android as well as for other platforms) is generally more expensive and time-consuming. In the contrary to other frameworks like React Native, using Flutter is very easy and the apps themselves are very popular among users. The performance is excellent and it’s very simple to design a user experience that people love. Flutter has lots of great features that make it the perfect choice forAndroid and iOS apps like widgets and Hot Reload. That’s why it’s such a popular choice among developers and companies alike.
