Hi folks, thank you for amazing flutter.

React native ecosystem has snack.expo.io and a companion Expo android/ios client where users can test the app on their actual device.

A similar thing for flutter would be awesome.
Considering the modular architecture of flutter, I hope it's doable and it would be an amazing tool for people to get started, experiment and share (kind of like a flutterbin (also considering humming bird, it would make a perfect UX as well)

Maybe something like https://dartpad.dartlang.org for flutter.

Something like this, in my opinion, would be amazing for Flutter. The only reason I am holding off on switching to Flutter from React Native is because I need to test stuff on an actual device, and I don't want to have to connect it to my computer and build it every single time. Would love to see somebody create an Expo-like solution for this problem.

Edit: I no longer think this is necessary. There is already extensive tooling available for building on the iOS simulator and building to a device, and I don't think Expo is necessary with the ability to hot reload.

This would fall inline with roadmap

"Making it easy to try Flutter without installing the full tooling and runtime stack"

Looking forward to hummingbird details, never have been so exciting times, a possible holy grail of development

https://events.google.com/io/schedule/events/03d8425c-54ca-437b-bac7-ece76cca8347

Hope there will also be an "one more thing" where you announce tooling to try flutter without installing it. Once again looking forward and good luck for #IO19

Expo is so cool and has a lot of SDK embeded. https://docs.expo.io/versions/latest/sdk/overview/ Otherwise, it has a complete CLI for you from dev to publish.

If flutter had something like expo I would leave react-native in a second

@isacmoura

expo.io in Flutter could be awesome

It will help a lot, if flutter app would run on real device using a service like expo.io directly

so still stick with React-native for now :D , because i usually create apps for clients and give them testing and fix quickly rather than submit to apple testfight.

still waiting for something like this. anyone have anything similar that's working right now?

Let me also add my voice...
i use a low end pc, so i am not able to use an emulator. So a USB connection is required to test your app(ios/android(****** MacBook is expensive)).
but unfortunately somehow pc doesn't recognize My device and sometimes when it does, a small torch disconnects device from pc..... but with something like EXPO like for flutter, i wont need to worry about USB connection or distancing my device from pc. HENCE I STILL AM AT REACTNATIVE................................................
hurry, we need it now.......

As a windows/linux app developer one of the main problems for me is get a solution to work arround IOS, if something like expo Go exist for flutter, without doubt, will be the differentiating tool for this framework. Please bring this for us!

Is there any tool like expo go for flutter? If there is not, build it. I think every one would come from that garbage called react native to flutter

I currently don't have access to a macbook and need to create an app with expo and react native. If flutter would have something similar, I'd change in an instant!
