AI project creation
Bootstrap screens, navigation, components, variables, and supporting project structure.
From idea to working Flutter app
Flutter app builder: from app idea to an exported Flutter project
FlutterPilot covers the whole path of building a Flutter app—screens, navigation, actions, state, data, preview, and delivery—in one project instead of a chain of separate handoffs.
Useful for a quick MVP—and designed to keep working as the app grows.
Multi-screen project
Login, dashboard, attendance, and student list screens of one app on the canvas.
Why it matters
An app builder needs to handle what happens after the first screen.
A convincing interface is only the beginning. Real products need navigation, state, API calls, reusable components, responsive layouts, and a clean path to delivery. FlutterPilot keeps those parts in the same project instead of turning them into separate handoffs.
- Create multi-screen project structure with AI or templates
- Build and edit interfaces on a visual Flutter canvas
- Define actions, state changes, and navigation flows
- Connect REST APIs, Postman collections, and data sources
A practical workflow
Build a Flutter app in six steps
This is the end-to-end path in FlutterPilot Studio, from a one-line idea to a Flutter project you can open locally.
- 01
Describe the app idea
Write a sentence or two about who the app is for and what it does. Use the AI project creator, start from a template, or open a blank project and choose Mobile, Tablet, Desktop, or Web.
- 02
Generate or assemble the first screens
Let AI create the initial screens and navigation, or build them on the canvas from Flutter widgets. Either way, edit the result in the widget tree and property panel.
- 03
Add navigation and actions
Attach actions to taps and other events: navigate between screens, open dialogs and bottom sheets, check conditions, update app or page state, or run custom Dart code.
- 04
Connect data and APIs
Define collections in the Data Panel, connect Google Sheets, Firebase, or Supabase (Beta), or add REST endpoints manually or from a Postman collection. Bind results to lists and forms.
- 05
Preview behavior
Run the app in the Studio and switch device sizes. Endpoints can return mock responses, so previews don't call your real API.
- 06
Export the Flutter project
Download the complete Flutter project as a ZIP, request an Android APK, or publish a hosted web app. Type-aware export validation reduces invalid generated Dart.
Inside the Studio
Connecting an API without leaving the project
The Endpoint Connectors panel is where step four happens for REST data:
- Add or importCreate an endpoint by hand or upload a Postman collection.
- Describe the requestSet the method, URL, headers, body, and typed arguments, plus global variables shared across endpoints.
- Mock for previewsAdd a mock response; during preview only mock data is used and the actual API is not called.
- Design every stateUse the response in DataLoaderWidget to design loading, success, and error states visually.
Worked example
Example walkthrough: a student attendance app
The screens pictured at the top of this page are a good size for a first project. Here is how the six steps apply to them:
- ScreensLogin, a dashboard of classes, an attendance recording screen, and a searchable student list.
- ActionsWire Take Attendance on each class card to open the recording screen, and Save Attendance to store the result and return to the dashboard.
- StateUse page state to hold each student's Present, Absent, or Late selection until it is saved.
- DataKeep students and attendance records in collections, or load them from your REST API through an endpoint.
- DeliveryPreview the flow on a phone frame, then export the Flutter project or publish it to the web.
Core capabilities
Tools for the work between a prompt and a shipped app.
Visual Flutter builder
Compose and refine the app with Flutter-aware controls and a live visual hierarchy.
Actions and state
Model navigation, conditions, updates, dialogs, and device behavior with visual flows.
Connected data
Use REST APIs, Postman collections, or local data, plus Google Sheets, Firebase, and Supabase (Beta).
Cross-platform preview
Review mobile, tablet, and desktop layouts without splitting the work into separate projects.
Deployment and export
Share a hosted web build, request an Android APK, or export the Flutter source.
Where it fits
One workspace for prototyping and product work
Choose FlutterPilot when the team needs to move quickly through UI, behavior, data, and handoff without giving up the underlying Flutter project.

Common questions
What to know before you start.
Can FlutterPilot build more than a single screen?
Yes. It supports multi-screen projects, navigation, actions, state, data connections, and reusable components.
Which data sources can I use?
REST endpoints (manual or imported from Postman) and local collections stored on the device, plus Google Sheets, Firebase, and Supabase, which are in Beta.
Which platforms can I deliver to?
From the Studio you can publish a hosted web app (5 credits) and build an installable Android APK for testing (3 credits). Google Play and App Store publishing aren't built in yet: export the Flutter project and build store releases with your own Flutter toolchain. The in-app deploy guide covers iOS/TestFlight and desktop releases.
How do I continue outside FlutterPilot?
Export the complete Flutter project as a ZIP and open it in your usual editor and Flutter toolchain.
