      Tech giant Google in its recent event held in London, UK has announced the stable version of its cross platform mobile app development SDK to develop cross platform applications for Android as well as IOS known as Flutter 1.0



      Android and IOS apps are written in different programming languages, which means the developers have to start essentially from the beginning when they recreate their app for a new platform or risk compromising on performance. Many companies have produced tools to help address this issue including Microsoft (Xamarin) and Facebook (React Native), but they were not up to the mar with too many bugs. That is what Google is assuring with the public release of the 1.0 version of the Flutter.

Flutter makes it easier yo develop cross platform applications for both Android and IOS
An Android and an IOS Device
     Flutter  was in the beta version since 2015 with the name 'SKY' since it was displayed in the Dart developer summit. Later Google announced Flutter release Preview 2 during Google Developer days in Shanghai. It was the last biggest update before Flutter 1.0 launch on 4th of December 2018. The latter one was the stable version of the framework. 

     Google has created Flutter 1.0 to enable fast and effortless development of applications which are cross platform and can be launched for both Android and IOS. 


     It includes Material Design widgets that look great on Android devices and iPhones alike, and it's all powered by Google's own Dart platform. The stateful hot reload feature allows for instant visual results without restarts which saves plenty of time and leads to increased productivity. Flutter is also open source, with contributions from developers all over the world due to which tons of plug-ins are already available to try out.

Flutter makes it easier to build cross platform mobile applications.
Applications on an Android device
    Flutter 1.0 has some great ideas to reduce or totally avoid the cross platform app development problems. The first and most important one is that it compiles to native code. Second is that the apps you make with it can look and act like any other native app  indeed, they’re “pixel-perfect” when you compare what you see in your development environment’s emulator window and what shows up on an actual phone. Flutter uses the same codebase to create both the iPhone and Android app, yet they can look different so you don’t have something on an iPhone that feels like it belongs on Android (or vice versa).

    Thus, as an application developer, with the release of Flutter 1.0,you win. Now you can easily build stable mobile applications which will work cross platform and without building them from scratch. Flutter has also solved the problems with its same codebase for Android and IOS which will help to create apps effortlessly.
