Overview
FlutterBoost is a Flutter plugin designed for seamless hybrid integration of Flutter into existing native applications with minimal effort. It enables developers to embed Flutter screens within native apps, allowing gradual migration or feature augmentation without rewriting the entire app. The solution supports deep linking, navigation coordination between native and Flutter, and efficient screen transitions. Built by Alibaba's open-source community, it provides a robust foundation for combining native performance with Flutter's rich UI capabilities.
