About

# Ship Flutter apps at the speed of web.

Founded in 2023 by Eric Seidel, creator of Flutter. We care about making portable development the default and creating a rich and robust Flutter ecosystem. Code Push, our product, enables instant app updates without waiting for app store review.

Mission

## Our mission is to make portable software the default way to build for everyone.

Our vision is a future where mobile developers operate at the speed of web and systems engineers. Where Shorebird is a safe and supported choice for businesses and offers a rich and robust Flutter ecosystem. We are fundamentally guided by principles like prioritizing developer productivity, being open source by default, and believing in the inevitability of high-quality portable software. We aim to align our success directly with the needs and success of the global Flutter developer community.
