If esri can build or change the javascript library into Dart that be even better. The reason I say this is because Dart compiles into JavaScript. If the sdk or library is created in Dart there is no need to create plugins and it be way faster to build on flutter.

Anything happening ?

Has anyone here tried using some of our existing cross platform technologies, such as Qt, Xamarin, or AppStudio?

Do you have specific projects planned that require Flutter? Please share any details about why this cross platform solution is required as opposed to one of the solutions that we already support today.

Short answer, Flutter is much better than Xamarin and Qt and it is gaining momentum. It is easier to code in dart since it's the only one language for everything you need (UI, Logic) to build apps on multiple platforms. I have built a geofencing app using google maps API for flutter (google_maps_flutter) and using layers I created with ArcMap. The only drawbacks from my approach is that the app lag a bit as it is trying to load so many polygons from so many layers(I guess in the future this will not be a problem as the platform mature and phone hardware gets better). The only challenge that I am facing now is google_maps_flutter still does not support geometric operations on polygons and polylines which prevents me from creating a mobile app capable of advanced geoprocessing. When google_maps_flutter gets the capability of geometric operations I will find less need of use for ESRI Mobile API for my mobile dev endeavour, which would be a shame really. I hope ESRI will jump on Flutter train soon.

Absolutely necessary. There is a plugin for flutter_map which is based on leaflet maps -> flutter_map_arcgis | Flutter Package .
This is not enough, is necessary to have support for web maps, web scenes... and integrate the great powerful of ArcGIS SDK into Flutter.
Currently we have several tools for creating cross platform apps as Xamarin, or AppStudio... However we should have this idea under consideration because Flutter is great

Like @AlejandroPequeño has said i would like to know if its in roadmap the possibility to integrate ArcGIS and Flutter?

Is Flutter support in arcgis map. How can we multiple feature layer inside map. Can you pls some sample working link in flutter. I am struggling with for so many days. Please help.

yes. flutter is the future now. xamarin has very small footprint now.

Hi @SoniaGupta you can use flutter_map and ArcGIS Service API. As a sample Inarisk Personal app on Google Play Store, we developed it with flutter.

MohammedAljezawi1 — Mon, 04 Oct 2021 07:30:28 GMT

Hi @KafiArifin I am developing a flutter app that uses ArcGIS how I can use ArcGIS Service API directly from the app, if there is any tutorial or a simple example I will be happy.

JakeShapley — Tue, 15 Mar 2022 21:35:35 GMT

I totally agree on the need for Flutter support. Xamarin pales in comparison to Flutter, in terms of performance, support, community and popularity. Any updates on this? In my last conversation with ESRI SDK product management, there was no plan to support Flutter. I hope this has changed, or will in the very near future. My mobile dev team has had tremendous success with Flutter. Setting aside for the moment that we don't have to maintain 2 (or more) code bases for each app, it takes about half the time to write an app in Flutter vs. native. We are in the process of rewriting almost all apps in Flutter. If there is not a plan for ESRI to support Flutter, we will need to migrate away from ESRI and ArcGIS.

MichaelMoor — Fri, 13 May 2022 08:21:40 GMT

Same here! We are also migrating our apps to Flutter for the same reasons as @JakeShapley mentioned.

We really need a ArcGIS SDK for Flutter as soon as possible!

JakeShapley — Wed, 09 Nov 2022 16:47:42 GMT

@MichaelMoor @SoniaGupta I figured I'd provide a quick update. @snlasystem is building a Flutter plugin that I have had a ton of success with. I am rewriting our native iOS and Android fishing regulation apps thanks to this plugin. A single code base. The same application logic for both platforms. A lot less code. And I only have to write one UI and tweak it where I want to for each platform. Because the plugin is a wrapper for the native SDKs, the performance is really good. This is the plugin esri should be supporting.

In my spare time I have started learning Dark and Flutter and I have been playing around with some existing open source packages trying to load ArcGIS basemaps: https://github.com/hhkaos/flutter_arcgis_basemaps

I just wanted to share it in case anyone is interested on this, or is willing to collaborate to understand why this is not fully working.

I will try to find some time to experiment with other packages too.
