Love the capability Flutter brings and we're certain to use it shortly. My only fear is that Google owns it šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø . Android was an open os dream that they're now exploiting to the hilt, wonder if that'll happen to Flutter too (though I cant quite imagine the use case yet).

This is really exciting! I've been using Flutter for a bit over a year now, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing - not just from a developer experience but also runtime performance. I guess quite a few of the products listed here (well, including mine, cough, cough) are built on Flutter. Thanks for the awesome work!

@christianheine is Fuild made with Flutter?
Abdelghani Bekka
@christianheine exactly this, upgraded 2 days ago and the performance is fantastic, I’m in love with Flutter even more.

@aguilaair_tech Hi Eduardo, yes, it is. Fluid was made with Flutter and Rive (and a lot of love, of course :D). Initially, I did not even want to build a cross-platform app (and have built native iOS apps before, so I could have easily used Swift as well). But I absolutely fell in love with the Flutter platform when using it for a different project.
Eduardo Moreno
@christianheine That's super cool! Why then release only on iOS? just curious :D
Christian Heine
@aguilaair_tech Hehe, thanks! Well, to be honest I simply wasn't sure how it will be received. But seeing the current feedback, I think Android will be launching soon as well.

This is exciting news!

Wow - I think my team could definitely use this. Is there a free version to try it out?
Eduardo Moreno
@glen_creaser It's completely free and open source, so yes!
Devin Alldrit
@glen_creaser This could definitely be a solid route, especially if we end up doing mobile

Google's Flutter 2 now supports every major platform, allowing you to easily develop and make native apps with one codebase. From Google's Developer Blog: https://developers.googleblog.co... Our next generation of Flutter, built for web, mobile, and desktop Today (3/3/2021), we’re announcing Flutter 2: a major upgrade to Flutter that enables developers to create beautiful, fast, and portable apps for any platform. With Flutter 2, you can use the same codebase to ship native apps to five operating systems: iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and Linux; as well as web experiences targeting browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge. Flutter can even be embedded in cars, TVs, and smart home appliances, providing the most pervasive and portable experience for an ambient computing world. In Flutter 2, released today (3/3/2021), we’ve broadened Flutter from a mobile framework to a portable framework, unleashing your apps to run on a wide variety of different platforms with little or no change. There are already over 150,000 Flutter apps out there on the Play Store alone, and every app gets a free upgrade with Flutter 2 because they can now grow to target desktop and web without a rewrite.

Kudos to the Dart & Flutter teams, exciting!

I love flutter and my only hesitation to dive fully into flutter is the web support. Flutter web seems to look so much better now! Kudos!
Vlad Korobov
Well, until they make scrolling and standart animations feel 100% native it's a hard sell. Supporting something is not an easy task to do. But I like that Google made TWA possible, which is better than messing with React Native.
Eduardo Moreno
@vlad_korobov By scrolling do you mean on web/desktop? IMO mobile scrolling is fine and native desktop apps too, although I do agree that Web scrolling needs imporvement
