Abstract
Developers are forced to either write the same application many times for other operating systems or use a similar but inferior solution that compromises native performance and accuracy in favor of portability. Flutter is a toolkit developed by Google that helps programmers create apps that look and feel great on different devices like phones, tablets, and computers. What is special about Flutter is that one can write code once and use it to build apps for different platforms like iOS, Android, and even web browsers. It is like having a magic wand to make apps that work everywhere! And all this magic happens using a programming language called Dart. So, with Flutter, developers can make apps quickly and easily without having to write separate code for each device. The demand for applications that can seamlessly run on multiple operating systems like iOS and Android has skyrocketed. Developers face the challenge of either writing separate codebases for each platform or opting for cross-platform solutions that might sacrifice some native performance for the sake of portability. Developers can construct robust and high-performing iOS and Android mobile apps with the open-source Flutter SDK. With cross-platform mobile app development becoming more and more important, Google’s Flutter open-source UI toolkit is a formidable competitor. This research looks at the advantages and disadvantages of Flutter for creating cross-platform mobile applications. The objective is to assess how well the framework can accelerate app development and improve app performance across several platforms. A thorough investigation was carried out by creating Flutter prototype apps, examining the development process, and contrasting the performance metrics with those of conventional cross-platform frameworks. Our research shows that Flutter offers a consistent user experience on both iOS and Android while also drastically cutting down on development time. A possible paradigm change in cross-platform mobile app development is presented by Flutter. It can take the lead in the industry with sustained community support and advancements in native integrations. Hot reloading operates by adding new source code files to the Dart Virtual Machine that is currently running.
