Google Flutter: Emerging Technology

Google Flutter is a mobile app development platform that enables easy and smooth operations. This is a code-based platform that can be used in both platforms i.e. Android and iOS, There is no need to develop separate platforms for them.

Features of Flutter:

Is free and open source,

Is based on Dart– a fast, object-oriented programming language which is in itself easy to learn,

Flutter comes up with its widgets, drawn with its high-performance rendering engine. They are fast, pretty, and customized.

Flutter apps look and feel great. The Developer can create own custom app design, that can easily available and ready to be implemented.

The framework of Flutter is based on the very popular reactive programming of today, the same that React has been made from.

Flutter is evolving as a significant rival to React Native, but also to native app development.

Advantages of Flutter:

Flutter has crucial advantages

Quick Coding Platform:
For developers, Flutter means faster and dynamic mobile app development. Developers are allowed to make necessary changes in the code and see them straight away in the app! This is known as Hot Reload, which usually only takes (milli) seconds and helps teams add features, fix bugs, and experiment faster. It is one of the things about Flutter loved by every top flutter app development team.

Single Coding for 2 Platforms:
Developers maintain one codebase covering both Android and iOS platforms. Flutter has its widgets and designs. This means that you have the same app on two platforms. Yet what’s important is that, if you want to differentiate your apps. You can change it without any problem.

Testing Process is Reduced:
If you have similar apps for both Android and iOS platforms, it simply requires less testing. Quality assurance can be faster, because of one codebase. What’s more, Quality assurance specialists have less work to do, because they have only one app to check. Of course, if your apps have some differences, they need to be tested on both platforms.

Customized Designs for Users:
Flutter is designed to make it easy to create your widgets or customize the existing widgets. This makes it developer-friendly and users can also enjoy much more unique designs.

Similar App User Interface for both advance and older devices:
User Interface on the new apps will look similar, even on older versions of Android and iOS systems. There are no additional costs involved in supporting older devices. Flutter works smoothly on Android Jelly Bean or newer, as well as iOS 8 or newer.

Disadvantages:

Difficulty With iOS:
Ever Since Flutter is created for mobile app development by Google, developers are keen to worry about its iOS implementation. The involvement of Google has a direct impact on the quick fixing of bugs, creating Android apps on the framework is enjoyable and fast. The trending update to the tool includes a pixel-perfect iOS appearance.

iPhone settings were designed on the framework that allows for the possibilities of Cupertino widgets. Yet these design features were updated later and were based on iOS 10 features even though iOS 11 had already been released for a while. Hence it is not clear if the updates will continue to be released as quickly as those of Android’s version after the tool leaves the beta phase.

Huge File Sizes:
Developers use massive length codes to reduce an app’s size. Users have started avoiding phone storage, and it is better to release an app that will prevent them from deleting it in favor of their favorite images and songs. To minimize the size of the code, programmers normally avoid animations, compress images, and reduce the number of packages and libraries.

Dart Framework:
Dart is the framework that is used for Flutter’s development and has its own both benefits and drawbacks. It is a programming language and is object-oriented as well as fast. However, it is not as great as programming languages like C#, Java, Objective-C, and JavaScript.

Not many novice developers will come across Dart on their learning journey, and it can be challenging to get new developers for your team. This is an essential factor to keep in mind when going for a cross-platform approach.
