Hi @abintech welcome to Flutter!

Flutter UI toolkit to build natively compiled applications, hence cross platform. You can build:

  • iOS, Android apps
  • Web applications
  • Desktop applications such as Linux, Windows, MacOS!

Instead of coding the same thing on different platforms, you use a single code base!

This screenshot is taken from flutter.dev:

This gives you a quick architecture overview of Flutter’s underlying toolkit. From the framework, to the engine, and embedder.

You can check out chapter 1 of Flutter Apprentice or Flutter dev’s article for more information!
See below:

Hope this helps!
