Fast development

<p>
    Flutter's <em>hot reload</em> 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 for iOS
    and Android.

Expressive, beautiful UIs

<p>
Delight your users with Flutter's built-in
beautiful Material Design and
Cupertino (iOS-flavor) widgets, rich motion APIs,
smooth natural scrolling, and platform awareness.

Modern, reactive framework

<p>
Easily compose your UI with Flutter's
modern reactive framework and
rich set of platform, layout, and foundation widgets.
Solve your tough UI challenges with
powerful and flexible APIs for 2D, animation, gestures,
effects, and more.
</p>

{% prettify dart %} class CounterState extends State { int counter = 0;

void increment() { // Tells the Flutter framework that state has changed, // so the framework can run build() and update the display. setState(() { counter++; }); }

Widget build(BuildContext context) { // This method is rerun every time setState is called. // The Flutter framework has been optimized to make rerunning // build methods fast, so that you can just rebuild anything that // needs updating rather than having to individually change // instances of widgets. return Row( children: [ RaisedButton( onPressed: increment, child: Text('Increment'), ), Text('Count: $counter'), ], ); } } {% endprettify %}

Access native features and SDKs

<p>
Make your app come to life
with platform APIs, 3rd party SDKs,
and native code.
Flutter lets you reuse your existing Java, Swift, and ObjC code,
and access native features and SDKs on iOS and Android.
</p>

<p>
Accessing platform features is easy. Here is a snippet from our <a href="https://github.com/flutter/flutter/tree/master/examples/platform_channel">interop example</a>:
</p>

{% prettify dart %} Future getBatteryLevel() async { var batteryLevel = 'unknown'; try { int result = await methodChannel.invokeMethod('getBatteryLevel'); batteryLevel = 'Battery level: $result%'; } on PlatformException { batteryLevel = 'Failed to get battery level.'; } setState(() { _batteryLevel = batteryLevel; }); } {% endprettify %}

write <a href="/platform-channels/">platform channels</a>,
to access native code, APIs, and SDKs.
</p>

Unified app development

<p>
Flutter has the tools and libraries to help you easily
bring your ideas to life on iOS and Android.
If you don't have any mobile development experience, Flutter
is an easy and fast way to build beautiful mobile apps.
If you are an experienced iOS or Android developer,
you can use Flutter for your views and leverage much of your
existing Java/Kotlin/ObjC/Swift investment.
