**This is a breaking change on iOS** Previously, the `paused` state was entered when the application resigned active status. `inactive` now maps to this status. `paused` now maps to an app that has been backgrounded. `inactive` is currently emitted on iOS only and corresponds to iOS's foreground inactive state. Current state transitions are: `resumed` <--> `inactive` <--> `paused` suspending is currently emitted on Android only and corresponds to the transition to Android's stopped state. Current state transitions are: `resumed` <--> `paused` --> `suspending` --> `resumed` These transitions may change in future.
Flutter Engine
Flutter is a new way to build high-performance, cross-platform mobile apps. Flutter is optimized for today's, and tomorrow's, mobile devices. We are focused on low-latency input and high frame rates on Android and iOS.
The Flutter Engine is the runtime environment for hosting Flutter applications. Most developers will interact with Flutter via the Flutter Framework and APIs, which run inside the engine.
Flutter is an early-stage open-source project. We are still adding features. However, you can build demos and examples today. We hope you try it out and send us feedback.
