- Announcing Dart 2.6 with dart2native: Compile Dart to self-contained, native executables
Dart already offers an extensive set of compilers for building production-optimized code for mobile devices and the web. These flexible compilers enable our framework partners to target a wide range of form factors: Flutter apps on Android & iOS, Flutter apps on the web & desktop, AngularDart apps on the web, and Google Assistant on embedded devices.
Today we’re announcing dart2native, an extension of our existing compiler set, with the ability to compile Dart programs to self-contained executables containing ahead-of-time-compiled machine code. With dart2native, you can create tools for the command line on macOS, Windows, or Linux using Dart. This feature’s announcement picture was implemented using the feature itself :-) from
- How to Automatically Generate App Icons with Flutter
I’ve been working on a Flutter application for the better half of this year, and as we get closer to release, I realized I hadn’t set an app icon yet. I initially went ahead and set my icons with Xcode and Android Studio, but after finding the flutter_launcher_icons plugin — I’ll never need to do this manually again!
- Learn Flutter Clean Architecture & TDD — Full Course (Flutter Tutorial)
Keeping your code clean and tested are the two most important development practices. In Flutter, this is even more true than with other frameworks. On one hand, it’s nice to hack a quick app together, on the other hand, larger projects start falling apart when you mix the business logic everywhere. Even state management patterns like BLoC are not sufficient in themselves to allow for easily extendable codebase.

- Flutter Design Patterns: 4 — Composite
In the last article, I have analysed the Template Method design pattern. This time I would like to represent the pattern which is pretty simple to understand (comparing to the other design patterns) and is related to the implementation of the Flutter framework itself — the Composite design pattern from
- Top Open Source Flutter Apps
Flutter framework from Google gains its popularity, and today more and more apps are created using Flutter. The main advantage of Flutter is its cross-platform feature. Your app is available both on the web and on iOS/Android platforms. Besides, Flutter is an open source framework, and any developer may improve its capabilities on GitHub.
Today we will list top open source apps built with Flutter. It may give you some idea of the development of your app based on Flutter using appropriate mobile app development services.
- Distribute Flutter app to Firebase and stores from Codemagic
For last couple of weeks I was configuring a build pipeline for upcoming Flutter Europe conference app. I decided to use Codemagic to see if it’s possible to handle multiple flavors and fastlane builds there. After few discussions with Codemagic support on their Slack and many build minutes I came up with pretty decent configuration. This post will showcase how to prepare your workflow to build Flutter app in multiple flavors and distribute it to Firebase App Distribution or any of the stores.
