Google has released Flutter 3.22 and Dart 3.4, dismissing rumors of discontinuing these projects following reports of layoffs within the Flutter and Dart teams. In a post, Google made it clear that “We remain committed to providing a strong language and framework pairing,” indicating that Flutter and Dart will continue to be developed.
A key highlight of Flutter 3.22 is its stable support for WebAssembly (WASM), allowing code to run more efficiently on web pages compared to traditional JavaScript conversion (with an average frame rate increase by 2x and potentially up to 3x in certain cases). The Impeller renderer on Android now fully supports Vulkan (previously only supported OpenGL), with plans to transition the iOS renderer from Skia to Impeller in the future.
