As a senior Flutter developer, a big part of my daily job consists of reviewing code, mentoring other developers, and helping them with their problems.

This month, both Flutter and Codemagic have an anniversary to celebrate! Flutter 1.0 was released in December 2018 at Flutter Live.

Another year around the sun has passed, and Codemagic has already turned FOUR years old! Who remembers our launch in December 2018 at Flutter Live?! It feels like yesterday! We started out as a Flutter-specific CI/CD and then added support for other platforms, such as React Native, native iOS, native Android, Cordova, and Ionic. This year, we started supporting Unity CI/CD. We’re learning and growing year by year together with the community!
