Our fellow mobile developer Iiro showed us this new framework in early 2018. What is this mystical framework for making beautiful applications for both iOS and Android with the same codebase? What is this Dart-programming language?

There were a lot of questions, but without any preconceptions, we began our Flutter journey. We fell in love how easy it was to make amazing UI’s using Flutter and how fast it was to develop with a help of hot reload.

We made an official event application with Flutter for the Finnish student recruitment fair called TalentIT in cooperation with Aalto University. The idea behind the FairMate for TalentIT 2018 event application was to provide the students with a tool to make their recruitment fair experience easier by helping them to identify the companies that would suit them the most. They could rate the exhibiting companies based on their visit, check the fair map and write private notes, so they could go through them after the fair, and apply for a job from the ones with a positive image. That was our first real project using Flutter and we learned a lot from it.
