This is all well and good until Apple bans these lowest common denominator cross platform frameworks. I hope they do this once Marzipan is shipping.

It's also not true that app startups aren't making money.

I doubt Apple would ever ban frameworks like these. There is a guideline against poorly designed apps, but it is almost never enforced.

I would not be surprised if they did. After all, Apple put terrible things like desktop Java and Flash out of their (and our) misery. This sounds like yet another iteration of Swing, a technology to develop GUI programs that could, at best, look subtly wrong on every platform.

Like a game engine, Flutter draws every pixel, compiles to native arm code, so you can create a custom design across android and ios or use the supplied material design and ios widgets.

Also they had an event in London last month, if you don't know much about flutter, there is this 11 minute recap of that event. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-o4BqJxmJE
