Has anyone worked with flutter and would reccomend use it for a closs platform (android/ios) project?

Hey I have worked with it. What’s the use case, then I could suggest it with full confidence. But for MVPs it’s the go to framework

It's depends on what kind of app you are trying to build. Can you share some context ?

Writing an app with a simple app with a small gallery UI, that allows upload of files/images from the device onto the server. On paper, the UX flow is simple, login, select upload. However, they need to support the underlying android/iOS apis for picking up files. Potentially will also allow folder auto upload as well.
It's probably doable with react native, but my familiarity with react is very low and a quick comaprision makes dart look a bit easier.

This should be doable in flutter. You could use this for picking images https://pub.dev/packages/image_picker https://pub.dev/packages/photo_gallery then for auto upload you may need to look into isolates.

If its simple gallery app then flutter is a really good choice. But uploads can be of different type, just uploading a single file have a very different problem of uploading/syncing folders (Ex: google photos)

Thank you for your response. I'll go ahead with dart and flutter and see how it goes. The modules also look very cool :O
