I've been using Flutter to (re-)create a public transport app. Relatively straightforward - mostly just calls a few REST APIs and renders the results. I found myself getting up and running very quickly. Building static UIs is incredibly easy. Dynamic/stateful UIs requires wrapping your head around the BLOC pattern, streams and StreamBuilder widgets (unless you go with StatefulWidgets). This is my first foray into reactive/async code, so it took a few days, but eventually it just "clicked".
I was a bit apprehensive about Dart, but I have to say it's a pretty nice language. Feels like a stripped-down Java with some nice quality-of-life features.
