Flutter for Mac is Google’s UI toolkit for building beautiful, natively compiled applications for mobile, web, and desktop from a single codebase. Install the Flutter app for macOS today! It’s free and open source.

Paint your app to life in milliseconds with Stateful Hot Reload. Use a rich set of fully customizable widgets to build native interfaces in minutes.

Quickly ship features with a focus on native end-user experiences. The layered architecture allows for full customization, which results in incredibly fast rendering and expressive and flexible designs.



Flutter’s widgets incorporate all critical platform differences such as scrolling, navigation, icons, and fonts, and your Flutter code is compiled to native ARM machine code using Dart's native compilers. Thus Flutter Desktop gives you full native performance on both iOS and Android.

Flutter's hot reload helps you quickly and easily experiment, build UIs, add features, and fix bugs faster. Experience sub-second reload times, without losing state, on emulators, simulators, and hardware for iOS and Android.

Delight your users with Flutter's built-in beautiful Material Design and Cupertino (iOS-flavor) widgets, rich motion APIs, smooth natural scrolling, and platform awareness.
