What is Flutter?

Flutter is a simple framework to create cross-platform native applications using Dart language.

We can build apps with Flutter in VSCode, IntelliJ Idea, and Android Studio. Just we need to install Flutter and Dart plugins in the editor. I am very much familiar with Android Studio, So I have installed the Flutter plugin in Android Studio.
