A new hope with Flutter!
summary
Flutter with Dart achieves near-native speed by compiling AOT to machine code and using JIT for hot reload; it uses Skia as the 2D renderer to match Android drawing performance. The talk gives concrete wins (binary size reduced from ~6MB to ~4MB; same UI in 179 Dart lines vs ~540 Java lines, other reports ~2k vs 12k), demonstrates a BLoC-with-streams counter app with unit/widget/integration tests, and shows a workflow using Visual Studio Code and Nevercode CI to build and publish to Play Store/TestFlight.
