I tried Flutter for the first time for a hackathon and was able to make a pretty nice looking app with it, complete with a custom audio player UI talking to an API, in around 24 hours. Never tried Dart before that. My code wasn't pretty but I'd also say the learning curve is not too steep, especially because the hot reload is so good you can easily iterate and try things.

Wrapping my head around futures and the slightly different async/await approach was hard. The component tree had some specific differences and of course I did not know which libraries to take... Well, maybe it is just my personal problem and should not prevent others from using it.
