Platform & Integration

Flutter meets the platform halfway — native channels, a JS-to-Dart bridge, and deep links that feel native.

How it works

A left-to-right map of the work. Ports stay on fixed sides so the edges do not cross more than they have to. Pan or pinch if you want a closer look.

The usual problem

  • A WebView course player is “done” until progress never reaches the LMS.
  • Android and iOS disagree on how JavaScript talks back to Flutter.
  • A deep link opens the app, then drops the user on the home screen.

How I approach it

  • One Dart interface, separate Android and iOS implementations.
  • WebView events drive real product APIs, not a dead iframe.
  • Deep links land on the screen the user asked for.

Process

  1. 01

    Contract

    The Dart interface for the native or web boundary.

  2. 02

    Implement

    Android and iOS behind that interface, plus any CSS the web content needs.

  3. 03

    Wire

    Events from the WebView or channel call the product API.

  4. 04

    Handover

    The bridge, the platform implementations, and the docs.

Proof from real work

MDBriefcase

Flutter engineer

SCORM courses play in a WebView. JavaScript events drive a custom Moodle API layer. The JS-to-Dart bridge has separate Android and iOS implementations; CSS is injected on iOS so course pages feel native.

What you get

  • A bridge interface with platform implementations
  • Docs for the next engineer who has to touch the native side

How risk stays down

  • Android and iOS do not share a “good enough” channel. They share a contract.
  • The web content cannot silently lose events the LMS needs.
