Web support for Flutter

Flutter delivers the same experiences on the web as on mobile.

Building on the portability of Dart, the power of the web platform, the flexibility of the Flutter framework, and the performance of WebAssembly, you can build apps for iOS, Android, and the browser from the same codebase. The web is just another device target for your app.

To get started, visit Building a web application with Flutter.

Dart and Flutter can compile to WebAssembly, a binary instruction format that enables fast apps on all major browsers.

For a glimpse into the benefits of using WebAssembly, check out the following video.

What's new in Flutter - WebAssembly

Adding web support to Flutter involved implementing Flutter's core drawing layer on top of standard browser APIs, in addition to compiling Dart to JavaScript, instead of the ARM machine code that is used for mobile applications. Using a combination of DOM, Canvas, and WebAssembly, Flutter can provide a portable, high-quality, and performant user experience across modern browsers. We implemented the core drawing layer completely in Dart and used Dart's optimized JavaScript compiler to compile the Flutter core and framework along with your application into a single, minified source file that can be deployed to any web server.

While you can do a lot on the web, Flutter's web support is most valuable in the following scenarios:

Single Page Application

Flutter's web support enables complex standalone web apps that are rich with graphics and interactive content to reach end users on a wide variety of devices.

Existing mobile applications

Web support for Flutter provides a browser-based delivery model for existing Flutter mobile apps.

Not every HTML scenario is ideally suited for Flutter at this time. For example, text-rich, flow-based, static content such as blog articles benefit from the document-centric model that the web is built around, rather than the app-centric services that a UI framework like Flutter can deliver. However, you can use Flutter to embed interactive experiences into these websites.
