Flutter is an open‑source UI toolkit for building natively compiled applications from a single Dart codebase. It supports mobile, web, desktop and embedded platforms with a rich set of widgets and fast hot‑reload development.

Use cases

  • build a native iOS app from a single codebase
  • create Android UI with custom widgets
  • develop a responsive web application using Flutter
  • produce a desktop application for Windows or macOS
  • rapidly prototype cross‑platform user interfaces
  • integrate Firebase backend services into a Flutter app
  • add Google Maps or payment features to a multi‑platform app

When to choose

  • You need a single codebase that runs on mobile, web, and desktop.
  • Fast iteration with hot‑reload is important for your development workflow.
  • You want a rich, customizable widget set and pixel‑perfect UI control.
  • You plan to leverage Google services like Firebase, Maps, or Ads.

When to avoid

  • Your app requires platform‑specific UI components that Flutter does not expose.
  • Maximum native performance is critical for heavy graphics or low‑level system tasks.
  • You prefer a language or ecosystem other than Dart.
