A Very New Flutter versions will keep coming out with more advanced features. But there are already a lot of enhanced features that perfectly explain why Flutter is so well loved.
First, cross-platform development with Flutter, contrary to popular belief, doesn't make software worse.
Flutter comes with all native widgets for Android and iOS interfaces like Material Design and Cupertino. Besides, the framework can change the behavior of separate elements to create similar UX for the app's users.
Second, Flutter makes it possible to implement discrete file compilation in the dev mode. JiT compilation speeds up development and software debugging.
Third, Flutter allows for a flexible and scalable backend.
It supports plugins like Firebase, SQLite, and so on. Firebase makes the app's infrastructure scalable, serverless, and redundant.
So if you're working on apps that require real-time databases or cloud functions, Flutter's got your back.
Finally, Flutter is very easy to learn.
From the very beginning, Google devs set a goal to lower the entry barrier. They carefully worked out documentation and resources developers can use. It even has special sections you can use to start learning the framework depending on your specialization:
- Flutter for Android devs
- Flutter for iOS devs
- Flutter for React Native devs
- Flutter for Xamarin.Forms devs
- Flutter for web devs
By Flutter's detailed documentation, you'll figure out how to write code in Dart even if you only have experience with Unity graphic tools for making Android games.
