High-quality hybrid mobile app development with Flutter

Did you ever think of an SDK that would make mobile app development a breezy affair for the Android app developers all around the world? Well, if you are stepping into a cross-platform app development, you should be very much sure about it as it’s going to be even in more demand than ever before. Not only it helps to accomplish iOS development and Android development hand-in-hand but also saves a ton of time in coding. 

Moreover, the advanced technologies that are being deployed to create unique apps with awesome features for smartphones are commendable and Flutter is one such tool.


What is Flutter SDK by the way in mobile app development? 
Before we move on to the things that are really helping the app developers to nail the app development process, let us know more about Flutter...

Flutter has kind of a past until it got finally released by Google. The Alpha build of Flutter was first revealed in Google I/O in the year 2017. The first Beta version was released in the year 2018 in Mobile World Congress. The good news was that now the companies can actually deploy this technology for developing full-fledged Android apps for their clients.

We will be focusing more on the Beta 2 version of Flutter- which has been released just a few days ago in the past month of April. It provides more advanced features that would take the development process in Android to the next level possible for sure.


What is Flutter?

It is definitely the latest SDK that has been launched by Google to create dynamic and robust high-end hybrid apps as it facilitates cross-platform mobile app development. 

Cross-platform app development! What is that?

It simply means that an app created in a single codebase can be run on Android platforms as well as iOS platform. The developers don’t have to work on developing apps for Android and iPhone separately. 

Not that it runs on Java and C#, it runs on Dart language. Dart is a language that Google has developed on its own just like Swift is created by the iOS developers of Apple inc. 

No doubt, Flutter is actually getting popular with the developers worldwide because this is “kind-of-new” tool, very dynamic and saves a ton of time.


Some Ultimate Features of Flutter Beta 2 version:

  • Installation is as easy as ABC: The installation process was not easy in the earlier versions of Flutter and so it was much needed for those in the iOS development or any mobile app development. As cloning process was necessary in the Beta 1 version earlier, it was a bit slow with the installation process. Now, that they have come bucked up with the new version , there is extremely fast installation through downloading and extracting the installation archive whether it’s Windows, macOS, and Linux! 

  • Just the Best Developer SDK Tool:  A variety of new improvements has been shown by the Flutter team with M23 tools milestone and that includes our very own IntelliJ as well as Android Studio getting a very much new ‘Outline view’. It is going to offer a structured tree view of UI widgets. However, this is available in the build method. To further add to this, we also see a support for the ‘Format on Save’ facility.  

  • Optimized and Structured: The asset system that Flutter has come up with is optimized to a great extent. This optimization and structure is much needed in iPhone development as well as Android development. Isn’t it?
  1. There is no need for unnecessary extraction of assets so it leads to faster app launch than before in Beta 1 version of Flutter. 
  2. Plugins are now capable to access asset and that too from the native side of it in the mobile app development process. 

  • Fast Synching: Beta2 version of Flutter is all about the fast and robust synching process. With the very handy and hassle-free Dart 2 as the default in Flutter mobile app development process, developers can now get fast async calls, and a rich type system along with that.

So, we see the all new improved Flutter in Beta2 version and we discussed the major ones above. 

Let’s now have a look at how Flutter can aptly replace any other cross-platform app development tool!


Flutter is high-quality native interfaces on iOS and Android:

Supported by Dart: The fast and furious programming language!
As we already mentioned that Dart is actually the better replacement or alternative of Java- a very popular mobile app development programming language. Just except the fact that Dart is created by Google. The development process becomes faster with Flutter as compared to Java, especially when it's about cross-platform development. 60 FPS is supported.


Step-by-step Clear Documentation keeps the things easy:
React Native- developed by Facebook is no good choice for the beginners when it comes to learn things initially. It is because one doesn’t find a very impressive documentation to follow.

However, with Dart and Flutter, you are ensured of the documentation that really helps!

Some Important Considerations of Android app development Process

Android app development

With the increasing use of smartphones, there is a huge demand of developing apps that help businesses grow their reach to the potential audience. There are many smartphones in the market but the most popular smartphone is Android and iOS.

Other smartphones in the market are a cluster of Windows phone as well as BlackBerry along with some other platforms.

Why choose Android app development over others?

● Huge share of the market goes to Android OS which holds 82% of the share. That means, out of the total users of smartphones in the market, 82% of the people use Android smartphones.

That’s a huge share and definitely it is the right time to hire Android developers if you have a business and want it to reach the maximum audience.

● An Android app is a dynamic app with all the relevant features and functionalities that can be incorporated into the app.

● A top-notch app with high-end functionalities can be developed only if you hire Android app developer who is well-experienced and well-versed with the latest know-how of the technology.


There are millions and billions of users of Android smartphones. Coding and syntax is not the only requirement of building an Android app which goes viral among the users. It is surely an uphill task to develop an app which is dynamic and robust as well as interactive and engaging.

When you hire Android developers, make sure that they are expert and professional enough to handle the app with most agile methodologies and strategies.


Following skillsets are required to develop a successful Android app:

SDK (Software Development Kit by Google)
● Working knowledge of IDE (Integrated Development Environment)

JDK as well as a device for testing.


1. Fundamentals of Android app development:

As an Android app developer, the first step you have to do is to download the Software Development Kit by Google which gives you the access to develop the most unique and creatively amazing apps for your client. You should be expert in using SDK by Google and this is possible only through hands-on-experience on this software.

The software is top-notch and high-end so that you can easily code, edit and debug within a fraction of seconds. This is a core step in the process of building some amazing apps for your clients who want their business on the top. Remember, the major concern of investing into getting an app is earning revenue.


2. Follow Google Play Store Guidelines very carefully:

It’s obvious that you, as a developer would never like your hard work go waste just because you didn’t follow the guidelines of the Play Store very carefully! Would you be so careless?

So, it’s definitely the right time to take note of the guidelines being laid by Google Play Store so that the app is not rejected. For this, you should always create the app very diligently and in a meticulous manner.

3. Follow top and latest mobile app design trends:

Like every other thing on earth, change is permanent. Same applies to the Android app development also! Trends in this industry keeps on changing every other month or year. An app has to look more elegant and simple than ever.

De-cluttered is the way to go. Intuitive mobile app designs impress the users the most! Chat Support 24*7 is the thing that keeps the customers glued to the app. Smooth navigation within the app as well as the unhurdled browsing on the app sure does the trick.

Top Technology Trends You Need to Prepare for in 2019

Technology is evolving at a rapid rate and with this new trends come to the market each year. As technology evolves, it enables even faster...
