About

Flutter is Google’s UI toolkit for building beautiful, natively compiled applications for mobile, web, and desktop from a single codebase. Paint your app to life in milliseconds with Stateful Hot Reload. Use a rich set of fully-customizable widgets to build native interfaces in minutes. Quickly ship features with a focus on native end-user experiences. Layered architecture allows for full customization, which results in incredibly fast rendering and expressive and flexible designs. Flutter’s widgets incorporate all critical platform differences such as scrolling, navigation, icons and fonts, and your Flutter code is compiled to native ARM machine code using Dart's native compilers. Flutter's hot reload helps you quickly and easily experiment, build UIs, add features, and fix bugs faster. Experience sub-second reload times without losing state on emulators, simulators, and hardware.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Everything. The timing was fast. The price was fair. The knowledge was great. They helped get the app on the App Store and Google Play. It was a really good experience. I am a happy customer.
  • As a white label partner, it has allowed us to easily clone and resell apps. The software is well made and has allowed us to hire new employees and get them up to speed on the platform quickly.
  • I love using this app to create training plans for my company. Not being a very tech savvy person, this app is very simple to understand and creates top notch quality.
  • Overall the platform is great with many features that are available and can be customized if needed. The design interface is very cool as it allows you to make each app different while not looking like a template much like others out there. My support manager Jordan is great to work with as he made things very easy during my training as there are some learning curves to basically understand everything to this platform. If I have any issues or questions they're answered within a reasonable timeframe. Overall the features are really good and designing apps is pretty easy. I have only used this platform for about 6 month. But, I'm looking forward to reaching out to new industries now that I have my hands on this, and open to building apps for basically anyone in the future.
  • I was thoroughly impressed with the support from BuildFire that I received during our migration of our Mobile Claim App to BuildFire. I had many questions throughout the conversion and they were answered in a timely manner and I always had a follow up email to ensure I was happy with the results and to ask if I had any more questions. It was so nice that Sepopo was my main contact for a good portion of the re-creation of our app and she was aware of the issues I was dealing with without have to reiterate to many support people. Kudos to a job well done and I look forward to working with BuildFire.

Cons

  • I don't know it seemed like a really good experience. I don't really have anything bad to say.
  • Sometimes there can be some tickets that may take more time than expected to get fixed.
  • I don't have any cons for this app, everything works smoothly and customer support is some of the best I have experienced.
  • The admin console can be a little confusing with a few glitches here and there. But, like anything once you learn where things are and how things work it gets easier and easier each day, and the glitches get adjusted pretty quickly. The cost is more expensive from what I was paying in the past. But, it's not horrible and offers a lot and is a big upgrade from what I had before. The only thing you will have are additional costs along the way that are necessary in order to use the app platform correctly. You will just need a few third party products to really make this app even better. But, addition fees are expected in order to use this effectively. I would also like to see more loyalty features that are touch-less. Maybe offering QR codes to populate loyalty tabs, rather than punching in a code and having to have others handle your device.
  • It was a huge migration of many companies so it was very confusing in the initial stages and I was unsure if I would continue working with BuildFire. After a few discussions and when the wrinkles were ironed out, I was confident that BuildFire was the company to go with. I'm very happy I made that decision because our app is live and working well even before the deadline which was so important to us.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • - It is an easy-to-learn framework that helps in creating mobile application with beautiful UI. - It helps in creating cross-platform application with single code that shortens the development time drastically. - It has numerous widgets readily available to create user interface with lots of customization. - It has a great community support.
  • - It helps in building deeply optimized cross-platform application for both Android and iOS with single code base. - The application created on Flutter as fast, if not more, than the application build on the native platform. - The community is really supportive and increasing rapidly with time, so there is a rare chance that the developer gets stuck on an error or bug.
  • 1. Flutter makes it quite easy to build a cross-platform application with native features and functionalities. 2. With the recent Flutter 2.0 update, Flutter now also allows the users to create stable web application along with mobile apps. 3. The application builds on Flutter is as fast as application build on native platforms. 4. There widget available for almost everything in flutter. 5. It uses Dart programming language, which is pretty easy to learn if the user has a prior knowledge of any OOP language. 6. There is a huge community present on the internet for helping out with errors.
  • Flutter helps in creating android, iOS and web application with a single code base. It uses a programming language called Dart, which is extremely easy and intuitive to learn if you have prior knowledge of any OOP language like Java. It has a huge community of support for discussions or to get help if you get stuck.
  • 1. Flutter can be used to develop cross-platform applications as it can create applications for both Android and iOS with a single code base. 2. The most unique feature of Flutter is "Hot Reload". When using hot reload the developer do not have to wait for minutes to build the application after every change, it saves the change and rebuilds the application in less than a second.

Cons

  • - The web application created on flutter is not as stable as the mobile applications. FEEDBACK: - Flutter team should focus more on perfecting the mobile application instead of introducing new development platforms like web application and Windows Application.
  • - The updates are rapid, and it creates problem in the form of dependency deprecation, so to tackle that the developer has to be updated about the new features and functionalities of the framework.
  • 1. The iOS application build on flutter is not as good as the android application in terms of native support and performance.
  • The only problem in using Flutter as an app development tool is that it is still evolving and growing and because of that after every major update the old project's code gets deprecated which sometimes is a huge hassle to migrate to the new syntax.
  • 1. Flutter is fairly a new framework and there is not a lot of tutorials of it available on the internet.
