I'm a consultant & I have recommended Flutter for third app now, business owners love it, specially love that they don't have to maintain two separated code bases for a single app and getting ride of buggy, slow hybrid solutions.
None of programmers knew what is dart / reactive, we did fast sessions learning by using ES6 and react, once that (and state management) is understood we switched to dart and programmers found it very similar and fun... however, some programmers said they have understood state but they didn't, made naive mistakes and app worked well anyway, tests couldn't catch them, my code review did.
Android programmers couldn't believe hot reload button, very welcome upgrade of gradle, they don't like how UI is built (used to xml), I agree it is confusing nesting all those functions, you have to wrap your mind around it, I believe introducing XML or JSX to flutter would be a mistake.
The only complains is third part plugins, we had to drop Flutter where ads or some third plugins is a must.
Flutter is not a complete solution, you still have to write some android / ios code to make your app works well.
