This is 2020, the end of a decade, and the development trends that are ongoing are inclusive of an environment where web, desktop, and mobile app development is preferred from a single code base.

Due to professional features that many software development platforms provide, and a diverse range of benefits Flutter is a relatively new platform. It manages to make a strong position as it is backed as well as fully supported by Google for global dominance.

This article will clearly uncover the significance and importance of Flutter and why the language has become the development trend of 2020:

Why is Flutter a Reliable Development Platform?a) Backed by a Big Google Gun

Technology has to have a credibility factor and a well known supporting factor which is why Flutter is a serious SDK. Having a cloud computing solution that is fully cloud compatible, Flutter is Google’s UI Kit that helps in creating a comprehensive native application.

This works seamlessly for mobile, web and desktop, all from a single code environment.

There are several options available that you can use for native app development like Java, Swift, and Kotlin. However, Google promises to provide and give its users an enhanced user experience via Flutter. This clearly means, that a solution that is backed by Google, already has higher number of Flutter mobile app developers. When the app developers are high in number, it will cause high demand for the Flutter app development. So, this relationship is directly proportional to one another. In addition to this, the Flutter developer community is known to be helpful as well as it is on a rise since last year. More Flutter programmers learning the language are actively contributing to the growth of the community. They have established a pool of resources for learning via exhaustive and complete documentation sources and the exchange of thoughts. The Stack Overflow Graph of developers clearly indicates the rise of Flutter Development when compared to React Native.

This has a lot to do with the support that is provided and given by Google. The search engine giant has developed a technology that it knew will be embraced by the programmers and developers as well as companies both alike. Therefore, it is going to be a win-win situation for everyone.

b) Flutter is Definitely Fast

Let’s enter the technical details for some knowledge regarding Flutter. There are a lot of challenges that developers and programmers face regarding learning a language.

The issue with the lack of standardization ad features is main highlighting reason that makes the language less popular. But Dart is designed and developed for Flutter and tuned for higher optimization of the user interface that is used by Flutter.

The syntax is known to be clean and simple thus these things make it powerful to create application architecture with standardization, ease of maintenance, and coding.

In fact, Dart syntax that is provided to developers is quite similar to C# and TypeScript. This is good as developers and programmers who use Flutter don’t have to learn something new and can build their existing knowledge by gaining command over Dart.

The best thing is the rising developer and programmers community as well as the documentation help in getting hands-on-expertise on Dart language.

3 Must-know facts about Flutter:
  • Flutter apps are divided into native binaries and these binaries are based on graphics and rendering engines built-in C/C++. As a result of which, it enables to produces a fast and high performing app.

  • Flutter apps have the ability to get a steady 60fps speed on most of the devices that it runs on and it also has an incredible 120 fps on the ones supporting it.

  • The Flutter developer community has high-performance compilation when compared to other technologies and different code efficiency factors that developers can use as the primary contributors. These are the very reasons why Flutter holds prominence as well as popularity in the field of cross platform mobile app development.

c) Ideal Platform for MVP

A Minimal Viable Product is one of the best approaches that developers and programmers have to validate a business idea. It gives and provides an upper hand in preventing failures as app owners can easily get customer feedback and their needs.

Flutter app development is all about the quick turnaround time and the least amount of response time. Since it has a unique framework, Flutter helps in developing a platform-independent app that can easly run on cross platforms and is fully compatible with the web, desktop, and mobile.

It is easy to pre-plan and fix a release of the Flutter app across any platforms in one single attempt or a single go.

Having high speed, there is an ease of integration as well as the amount of flexibility of the user interface. With Flexible UI, Flutter has been one of the best choice to create a mobile MVP.

MVPs have a lot of scopes especially when it comes to time saving as well as cost or budget constraints which are crucial for business.

d) Same User Interface and Business logic in all platform

The first advantage of Flutter is the common User Interface pattern that the framework provides via reusable widgets. It then eliminates the need for setting up of individual UI properties which includes colors, styling, etc.

UI can be easily and seamlessly adjusted by editing the code for the iOS and Android Flutter app

e) Saves Time

Having the Flutter hot reload feature that developers can use, they will be able to save time on deployment. The modern framework application doesn’t require the developer to spend any time on deployment as it happens in regular programming.

Applying all the changes immediately can be possible without losing any application state.

Building UI, fixing bugs as well as adding new features, all of these without compromising on speed, quality is possible using Flutter. This is a good reason why developers consider flutter.
