Tools and technologies
- [Instructor] Flutter is an open source, cross-platform, native app framework created by Google. Flutter outputs native Android and iOS apps with web and desktop apps coming soon. Flutter integrates easily with development tools, including Android Studio and Visual Studio using plugins for the Flutter framework and the Dart programming language and uses a single stack of tools and technologies for multiple platforms. In general, you'll use the Dart programming language to build Flutter widgets. These will be compiled by the Flutter framework into native apps. Looking at the architecture of a Flutter app, the business logic is written using Dart, then combined with Flutter widgets by the framework, resulting in native apps for Android, iOS, and soon, web and desktop.
