Switch to CMake for Linux desktop (#57238) Updates the Linux templates to use CMake+ninja, rather than Make, and updates the tooling to generate CMake support files rather than Make support files, and to drive the build using cmake and ninja. Also updates doctor to check for cmake and ninja in place of make. Note: While we could use CMake+Make rather than CMake+ninja, in testing ninja handled the tool_backend.sh call much better, calling it only once rather than once per dependent target. While it does add another dependency that people are less likely to already have, it's widely available in package managers, as well as being available as a direct download. Longer term, we could potentially switch from ninja to Make if it's an issue. Fixes #52751
Flutter is Google's SDK for crafting beautiful, fast user experiences for mobile, web and desktop from a single codebase. Flutter works with existing code, is used by developers and organizations around the world, and is free and open source.
For announcements about new releases and breaking changes, follow the flutter-announce@googlegroups.com mailing list.
We think Flutter will help you create beautiful, fast apps, with a productive, extensible and open development model.
We want to enable designers to deliver their full creative vision without being forced to water it down due to limitations of the underlying framework. Flutter's layered architecture gives you control over every pixel on the screen, and its powerful compositing capabilities let you overlay and animate graphics, video, text and controls without limitation. Flutter includes a full set of widgets that deliver pixel-perfect experiences on both iOS and Android.
Flutter is fast. It's powered by the same hardware-accelerated Skia 2D graphics library that underpins Chrome and Android. We architected Flutter to support glitch-free, jank-free graphics at the native speed of your device. Flutter code is powered by the world-class Dart platform, which enables compilation to 32-bit and 64-bit ARM machine code for iOS and Android, as well as JavaScript for the web and Intel x64 for desktop devices.
Flutter offers stateful hot reload, allowing you to make changes to your code and see the results instantly without restarting your app or losing its state.
Flutter works with any development tool (or none at all), but includes editor plug-ins for both Visual Studio Code and IntelliJ / Android Studio. Flutter provides thousands of packages to speed your development, regardless of your target platform. And accessing other native code is easy, with support for both FFI and platform-specific APIs.
Flutter is a fully open source project, and we welcome contributions. Information on how to get started can be found at our contributor guide.
