Google releases Flutter SDK beta, for better cross-platform app development
Flutter will compete with Microsoft's cross platform mobile framework Xamarin. Flutter apps run via natively compiled code so they perform better than apps run via interpreter and Flutter has been created to deliver a "constant 60fps".
"We believe developers and brands will really take advantage of Flutter's framework to gain control over their user interface and clearly articulate their brand identity across devices", Ladd said. And Google is also using Flutter in its upcoming Fuchsia OS, so that whole team is in the mix. Flutter apps ship with built-in UI widgets for "Material Design" (Android) and "Cupertino" (iOS), which totally change how an app looks and feels.
Flutter also promises expressive and flexible designs with composible widget sets, rich animation libraries, and layered, extensible architecture.
High-quality experiences across devices and platforms with portable, GPU-accelerated renderer and high-performance, native ARM code runtime, and platform interop.
Google has pointed out that there are already several popular applications that have been developed with Flutter, for example, Hamilton. Google also improved one killer feature: stateful hot reloads. We keep the app running and the state of your app resident while you change the code through this hot reload. Flutter has come quite a ways since then, however it is still focusing heavily on responsiveness and ease of development, with the goal of enabling the eventual development of apps designed for 120 Hz displays from the ground up.

"The brand identity and customization of the app's aesthetic design is now becoming more important than strictly adhering to traditional platform aesthetics", Google says in its Flutter FAQ. It's worth mentioning that Google has kept it open source and has been relying heavily on community's feedback for support and improvements.
The tools Flutter offers support Android Studio, Visual Studio Code, new refactoring to manage widget code, platform interop bringing the power of mobile platforms to the code, and a widget inspector helping devs to browse the widget tree. You don't need to write your complete app in Flutter.
Google is following the rapid release cycle that Chromium has been highly successful with, aiming for a new beta release every month, with a heavy focus on fulfilling the feature requests that the community expresses their desire for on the issue tracker. Interested developers can check out the toolkit can visit the Getting Started guide on its official website. To get you started, the search giant has published a "Get started" page here, but if you already know what Flutter is all about, well, you can join in the fun and start building whichever apps you want right away.
Google now plans to release new Flutter beta versions every four weeks so developers have a chance to test it and identify and issues that might need to be fixed.
