Today, we’re pleased to support Flutter’s growing community of builders by releasing Ably’s Flutter plugin v1.0. This makes it easy for developers to add WebSocket-based pub/sub messaging to their Flutter applications. Flutter has grown incredibly over the past few years, providing a platform to build modern applications. Increasingly, developers are looking to build event-driven applications where user interactions play out in realtime.
Flutter blurs the lines between designer and developer and endorses a new designer developer archetype. Part designer part engineer, part Picasso and part Pascal. With ambitious designs comes the responsibility to make those designs run on the screen without losing frames. While Flutter is performant by design, how much should we really pay attention to performance optimisation? In most cases … we don’t.
Meet Dominika Dronska, head of Digital at Abbey Road Studios where the Beatles recorded almost all their albums. Using Flutter, Abbey Road Studios have built the award-winning Topline app that lets musicians record their ideas on the go and share them with each other.
Will Larche, Lead Flutter Engineer for Material Design, and Jacob Kristensen, co-founder of the award-winning Reflectly app, join us to discuss design with Flutter. Flutter is rich in components and enables developers to deliver on their designers' vision, but what exactly is it about Flutter that makes all this possible? Flutter enables designers to create beautiful apps and Reflectly has built their own design language with Flutter.
