Creating a Python ArcGIS backend with Flutter Front End

Question

Hi Everyone,

I'm fairly new to ArcGis but need to know what options I have using ArcGIS API for Python (or other back end solution) to create maps and GIS functionality for a Flutter based front end.

I understand I can use the JS Package for Flutter, but I'm exploring other options around generating the map in the back end and rendering into Flutter/Dart (for web) somehow.

Any ideas or suggestions would be great thanks!

You could create an API that uses the ArcGIS API for python OR arcpy to create the output you desire if you combine it with something like FastAPI.

If you wish to have your backend natively on android I'd say python is not the way to go, since android doesn't natively support python.
