Integrate Flutter with Webiny 

Headless CMS

Speed up your mobile development workflow by using 

Webiny Headless CMS as a content store for Flutter.

Why Flutter?

Flutter is an open source framework from Google that allows developers to build, test and deploy beautiful mobile, web, desktop, and embedded apps from a single codebase. Leveraging Webiny Headless CMS as a database and GraphQL API allows you to persist data for use in your Flutter application.

Why Webiny?

Webiny Headless CMS contains everything an enterprise needs to build, manage and deliver content at scale.


Webiny doesn't just manage your content, it also allows you to manage all of your projects centrally using built-in internationalization and multi-site features, and use advanced processes that support organization-wide collaboration.

Flutter + Webiny integration
