Flutter is so perfect for this kind of complex UI's (and for designers like me that are new to coding this sort of stuff).
I'm learning how to turn my prototypes into a full flex design package at a very satisfying speed. For me, at least, as the designer that wants near-full control and guarantee over every pixel. Still too slow probably for the devs and users!) that want to use all of this three months ago 😜.

Also, I really wished Kotlin's jetpack compose could be easier then flutter.... Maybe one day...
Yeah, Kotlin looked way lees attractive to the pixel drawer in me.
Which IDE do you use for flutter? They are trying to get a good Preview working on Android studio. It's still quite limited, but when it works it's a killer.
I've been using, and absolutely loving, Android Studio + Cursor with VS code for about a week now.
Virtual devices of Android Studio are surprisingly snappy on my low-end MacBook Air.
Yeah, the phone emulation is quite well done.
Though keep in mind that it's really hard to predict the finger interface/animation smoothness from the mouse interface when you move to a real device. I keep making interactive zones too small on the emulator.
Yes, I've seen that already too.
I keep sending APK's to my phone for testing but that's only worth it for testing a bunch of "final" widgets at a time. Especially with things like this ZapSlider there's quite some quirks to iron out.
