Fast Prototypes with Flutter + Kotlin/Native
summary
Conference app gets built in about two weeks of hands‑on work by combining Flutter UI with Kotlin/Native shared logic and a Firebase backend. Method channels glue Flutter to the Kotlin framework; shared parsing and business code compiles into an iOS framework and JVM module so one code change propagates to Android and iOS after a full recompile. Pitfalls include no hot reload for Kotlin/Native changes, missing ARM32/bitcode support then, and tricky serialization across method channels, but the final app matches the design and works.
