Flutter has not been designated as the long term means of writing Android applications.
Given that the underlying Android system heavily relies on the JVM, the heavy emphasis on Kotlin support and the 3rd party nature of Flutter (you need to build bridges to use it) it is simply yet another x-platform tool to build mobile applications.

- MrDresden 6y agoIt could become the go to way in the future. Google is definitely gauging the enthusiasm of their developer base to see where they move to. It is what happened with Kotlin in the first place. And they aren't putting all of their eggs in the same basket as Jetpack Compose is now in active development and will, once ready, rival SwiftUI in functionality and power. I hope there will be flexibility and support for both in the future. Flutter has its positives and negatives as everything else. Same can be said about native development.
