You are reading this blog for one of the two major reasons :

First, you have an amazing new app idea for your start-up and you are looking for a reliable & cost-effective app development solution.

Second, you are a tech-geek and you’re hunting for an informative article to learn more about Flutter.

In any case, the blog is going to be beneficial for you. So, let’s dive straight into it.

Mobile Apps have burgeoned from a simple tool for simplification of our daily life to a major business requirement and a growth aspect. Earlier in the days, we had a handful of technologies or frameworks for web applications like PHP, CodeIgniter (to name a few). And talking about mobile applications for a native app, Java and Objective C, and then moving today it’s Kotlin for Android, Swift for iOS, etc.

But today, we have new, more advanced, more efficient frameworks that keep coming every now and then. And as a product owner, being asked to choose the right technology/framework for your product development can be draining and confusing, whether it’s web or mobile apps.

The reason for writing this article is to help you decide why to choose Flutter for your new app idea. I understand that there are a lot of factors to consider when choosing to invest in your product, from a business standpoint. So, how do you decide?

• Here’s what I will try to help you with:
• Understand what Flutter is.
• Why is it there so much enthusiasm surrounding Flutter for both Startup funders and app developers.

Why is this the best fit for your needs

Some existing examples or case studies of the world’s leading brands building their apps in Flutter

We have some brilliant frameworks available for building any kind of mobile application, be it a Native or Cross-Platform app. But somehow, Flutter has been leading Native and Cross-platform game since its inception. Let’s see why?

Flutter — The Framework that revolutionized App Design

Flutter, the mobile application framework, was released in May 2017 during the Google Developers conference. It is a Software- development kit that helps developers in making high-performing apps for Android and iOS platforms by using a single codebase.

Not just that, In such a short span of time, Flutter has become so popular that it has already outgrown Xamarin by Microsoft, React Native by Facebook, and Angular.

With Flutter, you just need to learn Dart to build apps for Android as well as iOS. No other languages like Kotlin, java, Swift. Only Dart.

Why is Flutter a Big Deal?

We have all seen a hush-hush about Flutter. Everyone is talking about it. More and more development companies are using Flutter for their mobile application needs and it’s exponentially increasing.

Let’s take a look at a few of many reasons why Flutter overgrows every other Framework out in the market.

Amazing Widgets to fall for — Probably the first thing that makes a developer fall in love with flutter. The wide range of widgets cataloged by Flutter makes it possible to create aesthetically pleasing app UI. The inbuilt IntelliJ Plugin, rich animations, and graphic motions are few of the things Flutter helps us to create tremendous user interaction. The user experience that can be achieved by Flutter is excellent, static UIs never achieve this.

And don’t worry about the native features like navigation, scrolling, etc. because flutter comes with the support of platform differences. Customizing the widgets can be developed based on user requirements.

Fast Development — One of the main features of Flutter is it’s Hot Reload feature. Are you wondering what Hot Reload is? Let me tell you.

Hot Reload- Any changes made in the code of the app are instantly visible to the developers on their screen without having to recompile the code, which in turn saves a lot of time for both, the developer and the app owner.

Single Codebase — Flutter is the only framework that provides reactive views without requiring the javascript bridge, while others fail on the reactive programming part. As a result — it develops cross-platform apps that are competitive to native apps when it comes to Functionalities, features, and UI/UX.

Now, I know some of you might also be running a start-up and want to turn your amazing business idea into a mobile app. Let’s talk about the things from an Appreneur’s perspective:

What does your app need to stand out in the Mobile App industry?

Considering that almost 3.5 billion smartphones and tablets are being used across the globe, the mobile app industry is growing at an exponential rate. And in a sea full of users the fact that 300 million start-ups roll out every year makes you want to stand out in the crowd. So what does your app need to achieve that and how does Flutter help in this? Let’s find out…

• Strikingly Interactive Designs — The most crucial thing for any type of business is to attract investors so as to acquire the funding that they desire. As we already talked about, Flutter is flooded with UI features, interactive designs, motion graphics, animations, and many more which draws in customers and investors alike.
• Strong Backend — Firebase is at the heart of Flutter. Firebase is Google’s mobile platform that provides a bunch of services, from cloud storage to real-time databases and Hosting & many more. Firebase is the absolute key to startup success.
• Pocket Friendly — Running a startup, the biggest challenge that comes is the budget. The startup owners always want to look for options that won’t make a hole in their pockets. And when it comes to developing an app, this plays a major role as well

As we already know, Flutter uses a single codebase for developing apps for two different platforms. It is clear that you don’t have to hire two different specialized engineers to make the app for both platforms. It will save you money.
