Dart is a modern programming language developed by Google, best known for the Flutter UI framework. We have implemented projects using Dart and Flutter in the past—primarily for cross-platform mobile apps. Today, we only use Dart on a case-by-case basis, such as when existing Flutter projects need to be maintained, expanded, or taken over. Our current focus is clearly on JavaScript, TypeScript, React Native, and Expo.

💼 When We Use Dart

  • ✅ Maintenance & Further Development of Existing Flutter Apps
  • We take on Dart/Flutter projects when a codebase already exists—such as when handing over from in-house teams or following a period of work by freelancers.
  • ✅ Flutter integrations with existing backends
  • In hybrid projects, we integrate Flutter-based frontends with modern APIs (e.g., Node.js, Go, or Java).
  • ✅ Client Requests or Platform Requirements
  • If a project is explicitly intended to be built on Dart/Flutter, we support the implementation—while also advising on technical alternatives.

📉 Why Dart No Longer Plays a Leading Role for Us

  • We focus on React Native with Expo because it integrates better into web ecosystems, existing JavaScript stacks, and design systems for our clients.
  • Maintaining Flutter projects is not as easily transferable as React-based solutions, especially in an agency setting.
  • In practice, cross-platform development with Expo covers most use cases more efficiently.

❓ FAQ: Dart & Flutter at Our Agency

Do you take on existing Dart/Flutter projects? Yes—if a project has already been built with Flutter, we can handle maintenance, further development, or code reviews. Upon request, we also provide consulting on a potential migration. Do you recommend Dart for new projects? Generally not. For most mobile projects, we recommend React Native with Expo, as it integrates better with web technologies and is more easily extensible. Can you also support hybrid teams with Dart expertise? Yes—upon request, we can also contribute to existing Flutter teams, e.g., as frontend/API partners or in DevOps and build processes.
