Flutter is definitely on my list of languages to explore too! Here’s a PragProg book if anyone’s interested: Programming Flutter (PragProg) :smiley:

Personally I can recommend Flutter if you want to use a hybrid option.

While I only dabbled with it myself, I know a lot of app developers who built native apps for Android and iOS for years and were really impressed and fond of Flutter after having used it for a while.
