Have you guys worked in flutter(dart)?
How long will it survive?
In my company, i suggest them to do project in flutter. They are refusing. Why companies prefer native development (as the crossplatform saves time for andriod n ios seperate build)?

What you think of it?

It’s just getting started for one. It’ll be around for a while I think, google is pushing it hard internally

Yes, Google pushing it. What's intention of them?

@prakash-king13 to utilize it internally for the sake of unification and efficiency, most of the stuff they build is for their own use. They just share most of it

I believe flutter is great to utilize the Quick Product prototype focusing primarily on one language. It's a great developer experience. Tooling is great.

The problem arises when HR researches "Flutter vs Android". Google promotes it because small companies do little research on the tools they're using.

I've used flutter for my thesis project. The problem we've faced so far is the integration of NATIVE APIs from ios and android(bluetooth, gps, beacon, etc).

@clueless sounds good enough

@prakash-king13 I highly recommend flutter if you don't want to touch the native realm(Kotlin,Swift). and focus more on the UI and logic.

"Why companies prefer native development?"

In my experience, the time you save by "unifying" stuff is little compared to the time you waste finding workarounds and fighting bugs in those unifying frameworks like xamarin or react native.

I have no experience with flutter but I bet it is similarly exhausting.

In mobile dev, there are things you simply cannot unify. And all of the frameworks will cause you trouble there.

I just noticed one of your tags, just so you know flutter isn’t a language. The language you’d use is dart, flutter is a framework.

Flutter is good option for cross-platform apps.
