I was wondering if it's possible to run Flutter application components (such as building a specific screen) with other web apps. And if there is a good resource to learn how to do this.
We have a GWT web-app that we have been considering upgrading some components to Flutter, but I have not seen much information online on how to implement this.
I can't see documentation of this process online though. I have seen that you can insert Flutter into existing Android/IOS apps but I don't know how compatible this is with GWT.

So I'm having a client that wants an online-coaching website , and I'm an flutter app developer , I've never used flutter web, and I was wondering if I can do the work in Flutter Web instead of learning Angular or Reactjs etc , because I'm familiar with flutter and it will take less time to grasp the concepts .
Answer:
YES, 100%, it will work very well. No need to learn anything new. Same code will also create a website.
Guidelines are here
Exceptions:
In case you are using packages, double-check that those are compatible with "web" (most are compatible but otherwise, you can avoid those)
Bonus information:
You can publish to Firebase... It is free and very fast.

I have existing flutter module being used in native Android/iOS apps.Flutter module is used as I wanted to embed it in existing native Android/iOS app. After searching on internet I came to know that module cannot be used as it is to support web platform.
I am thinking about below approach
Creating new flutter app and copy existing module code (Not a good solution as per me because I will have to maintain 2 repos one for module(to support native platforms) and one for web app support).
Queries:
Has anyone came across such issue and what are the possible ways to
handle this scenario?
Can I embed this flutter app(not flutter module) in native apps?Will this create any
problem?
Please suggest possible solutions?
I'm confused about what Flutter framework actually does, I know that it uses Dart and have heard that both of them can be used to create cross-platform apps.
But Wikipedia defines Flutter as a "UI Framework", so my question is, can you make a complete app (for mobile) which also has backend part (communicates with a database) built entirely using Flutter & Dart and not only the UI part?
Yes, we can obviously build complete apps using Flutter, from UI part to backend as well. Using Firebase as a backend service, we can use it for authentication, database, hosting and all.
Ionic was built with mobile in mind - creating a good mobile experience using web technologies. You start out with a web app, so there is the possibility to use it for all 3 platforms. However I’ve never seen anything that resembles a complex web application that uses iconic for both the web and mobile. Will it support the ability to use 3rd party controls such as complex grid controls that may only be used on the web and not in the mobile apps. I’m trying to decide if we use ionic just for mobile and have a completely separate code base for our web application. Any invites would be greatly appreciated!
Basically everything that works on the web also works on mobile devices built with Ionic.
Ionic creates a WebView where javascript code runs. you can use capacitor or cordova to manage native functionality.
So if you have web developers you can do anything you could do as "Mobile Web" but in an app.
Now you can also choose whether to use react, angular or vue.
For example using Ionic with react you can use the VirtualDom and develop exactly as if you were using react on the web.
Instead, using for example React Native you will be forced to use a set of react components (or write new ones) but you will not have the VirtualDom available.
However you can also integrate native code, which Ionic doesn't support.
There are a lot of articles online that cover the subject by comparing competitors:
From Ionic
So yes, you can use all javascript libraries!
I'm looking for a good tool to develop to Web and Mobile.
A friend of mine recommended me to learn NativeScript/Angular because with that tool is possible to write the services, models, and controllers only one time and create specific views for Mobile and Web platform, sharing almost 100% the business logic code.
But I think that native script is not so hyped as flutter and maybe flutter could be more used in the next days, so I'm searching for this type of tutorial (sharing logic between Mobile and Web) in a flutter, but I'm not sure if this is really possible.
I saw something about BLOC pattern, but I am not sure if this is the correct solution for this type of project, or even if it is possible to write logic code only one time and specific "views" for Mobile and Web in a flutter.
Can anybody help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance (and sorry about my English, I'm not fluent yet)
That's the whole propaganda of flutter. The framework is made to write one code and run everywhere (android, ios, web, desktop). So you definitely are on the right path.
Unfortunately flutter web is a bit unstable right now and maybe you can face some difficulty.
