Here are Flutter basics and why use it for mobile app development?
- HOT Reload: In flutter, you do not need to run the code every time you did some changes. Flutter works like a web that allows the framework to automatically rebuild the widget tree. It helps to view the effect of your changes thus saving time and also helps in fast development.
- High Performance: Flutter doesn’t require a JavaScript bridge and the speed is much faster than others.
- Native apps for IOS and Android: Flutter has all the facilities that come under the native platforms, like scrolling, navigation, icons fonts, text, List view, etc. that’s why apps built with Flutter features on both android and iOS.
- Develop one code for two platforms: Flutter has its own widgets and designs. Widgets are the elements that control the view and interface of an app. Flutter is independent of platform covering both iOS and Android. So one app can be designed to work on both platforms.
