+As `Flutter` is open source, even v1 (<2019) supports 'dart' shared packages, ie contributed by other developers

-([`fluro`](https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/fluro)), integration with device
-APIs (like [`url_launcher`](https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/url_launcher) &
-[`battery`](https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/battery)),
-and using third-party platform SDKs (like
