Sooner or later you will need something that cannot be done entirely in Flutter and need to interact with iOS and Android natively using a plugin. Luckily there are already plenty available on pub.dev, but you may need to modify an existing one or even code one from scratch to satisfy your requirement. A plugin is similar to a Dart package but adds some Kotlin and Swift code, plus a sample Flutter app to demonstrate its features.

Code links: simple example: https://github.com/richardheap/audio_push final example: https://github.com/richardheap/audio_worklet Richard Heap co-founded Software Hothouse, which specialises in VoIP recording applications, in 2003. There, he developed the ever-successful Avaya Contact Recorder, which has used Dart in its web UI since 2015. He recently co-founded JustSpeak – a start-up making it easier to use your mobile device as your work phone. He is frequently found answering Flutter questions on Stack Overflow.
