Build and Compile Project

Building and Compiling APKs:

  • Once done with a Flutter project, you might want to build an APK for further testing, distribution or deployment.

  • The simplest way to build an APK in Flutter is by running the command 'flutter build apk' in the Terminal.

  • This command will present you with an APK with the compiled code so far. This APK can be used for testing purposes on various devices, and is a Debug APK by default.

  • To make an APK for deployment through the Play Store or any other distribution channel, the APK needs to be signed.

  • The whole signing procedure along with essentials for deployment, like versioning and adding icons can be read about from Flutter's official documentation in detail. (https://flutter.dev/docs/deployment/android)
