@viktorlidholt Very inspiring - thanks for sharing your Dart-on-the-server journey!

After I left Google’s Flutter team, I ran a startup for a couple of years. We built a democratized news app. Flutter was an obvious choice for the frontend, but we built the backend in Python. This seemed a natural choice as we relied on natural language analysis and other AI features that were easily accessible in Python. And there are many proven backend frameworks for Python, right? Well, after a two-year struggle, I decided to rewrite the whole backend in Dart. Easily one of the best tech decisions I have made. Rewriting everything took a month, but now everything was unified. It was possible to share code between the app and the backend. As an added bonus, performance was much better, saving on hosting costs. This became the prequel to Serverpod. Now, I’ve spent the past three years making Dart on the backend really great to work with. First, it was just me coding at home in my apartment; now we’re a full team of 10 full-time developers, and things move a whole lot faster. I am so lucky and thankful to be able to build my dream and to have such a great team to work with. 🙏

Server-side Dart: Because one language is enough drama for me. 😬

if you think Flutter on iOS feels bad or has an uncanny valley felling in 2025, it's a skill issue, you're holding it wrong, this Flutter app feels exactly like a native iOS app it's pretty wild.

Recently @paper team released their Liquid Metal app, and I thought it was such a cool effect. So, I decided to recreate a version of it using @FlutterDev Live demo and source code 👇 #flutter #flutterdev

I never stop updating! Now, animated_to 0.3.1 accepts an initial velocity when starting spring animations. This means, you can integrate with other physical animations or GestureDetector.onPanEnd! pub.dev/packages/anima… #FlutterDev
