Bob caves in to the pressure of unrelenting android users and goes ahead to download tens of books and quite a number of YouTube tutorials to learn java and android development. Months later, Bob’s app is on playstore and the world is a better place. This is great for the users but what does this mean for Bob.
Here is where flutter comes in! With flutter,
Bob can build just one app from one codebase that can run on all the numerous iOS and android devices. For all aspect ratios and all screen sizes.
When Bob is deploying his app, he can now deploy his one app to both Google play store and iOS app store
He can now apply one update or make a fix that will effect for all users of his app.
Flutter does this by compiling directly to machine code whether, intel x64, ARM instructions or JS for web.
WHAT ARE FLUTTER WIDGETS?
Flutter widgets are built using a modern framework that takes inspiration from React. The central idea is that you build your UI out of widgets. Widgets describe what their view should look like given their current configuration and state.
