I'm building a Dart CLI tool that can safely auto-migrate entire codebases to new language features (primary constructors, dot shorthands, etc) that are not supported by dart fix. It is extremely fast (think 100k LOC migrations in 1 second). Interested? Would you pay for it?

In Warsaw this week for Flutter Tech Summit. 🎉

Flutter looks pretty respectable for desktop apps! Implementing this on React Native Desktop looks like you'd need to create a lot of new controls from scratch. Curious what Flutter's RAM usage on desktop is.

Building with a single codebase optimizes how AI writes and validates code. Here's why Flutter’s architecture is a great match for agentic workflows: 📉 Token reduction 🧩 Consistency 🛠️ Self-correcting agents 🧱 Predictable code gen ⚡️ High-speed validation with Hot Reload

Yesterday I joined @supabase as an SDK Engineer (Flutter)! This is a dream job for me, as most of you know, I'm a very active open source proponent and developer, and getting the chance to work on an OSS product that I use a lot and that has a great community around it will be 🔥

Dart must easily be the most versatile computer language out there. 🎯 * Runs as a scripting language (like Python) * Compiles to kernel code (like Java’s bytecode) * Compiles to native code (like Swift) * Compiles to JavaScript (like TypeScript) * Compiles to WASM (unlike TypeScript) * Has sound null safety (like Rust) * Stateful hot reload (like no one else - Erlang maybe?) * Runs on virtually any platform (like C/C ) In addition: * Has great developer tooling * Interops easily with other languages * Has an outstanding UI framework (Flutter) * Nicely mixes with native UI components * Is really easy to learn and work with Today, I learned that the full compiler, analyzer, and tooling can even run on a web page. Mind blown. 🤯 What else did I miss?

Flutter in your pocket, on your web browser, and now... in your car 🛠️ See how Flutter is helping Toyota deliver an intuitive, smartphone-like experience to 2026 RAV4 drivers across the world.

So @claudeai appears to be blocking one of our SWEs from using it on compiler work. ☹️Doesn’t like it if you deal with compiler crashes I guess.

Release Insights now support hourly granularity 🎉 When you're pushing a patch to tens of thousands of devices, knowing *when* things are happening matters just as much as knowing *how many*. You can now see downloads and installs broken out by the hour, across every patch in a release. Try it out today at console.shorebird.dev

There are over 1.5 MILLION developers building with Flutter every month 🤯🎉 That’s over 50% growth from a little over a year ago. It's been incredible to continue to see the Flutter community grow!

If you're using Flutter, and at Google I/O, I'd love to talk! I'll be there again all day tomorrow, and in the audience for both Flutter talks. Come say hi! 👋

the co-founder of Flutter is speaking at FFDC. Eric Seidel (@_eseidel) built Flutter at Google. now he's building ShoreBird. he's been inside the tool that FlutterFlow is built on longer than almost anyone alive. on may 27th he's on stage in San Francisco talking about what he's learned and where it's going. alongside him: Abel Mengistu (@asmengistu), CEO of FlutterFlow (YC W21), and Abdallah Shaban (@AbdallahSh07), product at @Google and former co-founder at Celest (YC W24). three @ycombinator founders talking about next steps with Flutter. FFDC. may 27–28. The Midway, San Francisco. in person and on livestream. ffdc.io

I genuinely think if you’re vibe coding, you should be building cross platform. Let one codebase do all of the work, deploy to iOS and Android while vibe coding one thing. That’s one of Flutter’s competitive advantages in 2026 and beyond.

💻👀 Tune into our #GoogleIO What's new in Flutter livestream on May 20th at 10am PT → goo.gle/3P47FQF We'll explore framework updates, from performance improvements to new features, and how these innovations are shaping the future of fast, multi-platform app dev.

Looking forward to seeing the Flutter and Shorebird community at Google I/O next week. 💙
