Flutter — how to make a beautiful app in an hour?
summary
Flutter uses Dart with a C++ engine and Skia 2D engine to render its own widgets (not platform UI), targets 60fps (120fps on capable devices), and provides hot reload (~300 ms) that preserves state. Minimum APK size is ~4.2 MB. Production adopters include Alibaba (parts serving ~50 million users) and at least one app rewritten by one person in ten weeks. Native APIs use MethodChannel, and UI can be widget-tested off-device without an emulator.
