GoKawiilWhat's new in Flutter 3.47
Flutter 3.47 is here, and with it, we’ve got some exciting new updates.
Today, we welcome the 1.0 release of the standalone material_ui and cupertino_ui packages. This is a major milestone that decouples design systems from the core SDK.
We’re also boosting performance and tooling across the board. This release brings Impeller to desktop by default, prepares our pipelines for iOS, macOS, and Xcode 27, and graduates Flutter Widget Previews to stable.
So, run flutter upgrade in your terminal to get started, or read on to learn more about the major changes in this release.
