Flutter, the open-source and cross-platform UI toolkit and portal framework created by Google, is now available on Linux, thanks to Canonical’s Snap universal software deployment and package management system for GNU/Linux distributions. Flutter can be used to develop and deploy cross-platform apps for some of the major mobile and desktop platforms, including Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and even Google Fuchsia. And, as of today, it can also be used on Linux.
