Create Flutter Project

I recommends to use Android Studio because not installing other tools again.

Just install Flutter Plugin in Android Studio and just go.

Setup your project like name, description and etc.

You can run your first app with emulator or real device.

The result should be like this.

Build APK

To build APK is quite simple, just select Build in Android Studio Menu Bar.

Then select Flutter -> Build APK.

Wait for a second, and yups.

Your apk file has been release.

Now you can share your apk to your friend or family, cheers!

Thanks!
