I love attending Flutter events. As someone deeply involved in the Flutter and DCM community, I take every opportunity to connect with fellow developers at conferences around the world.

We, at DCM team, decided to write our recap of the Flutter conferences that defined 2025. Even though we have not attended all of these events in person, still worth to mention them and add all of our highlights from those that we have attended personally.

Let's get started!

Flutter Heroes, Turin, Italy, March 12, 2025​

Flutter Heroes 2025

Flutter Heroes is an annual event held in Turin, Italy. The choice of a cinema created a theater-like atmosphere with a big screen, ensuring that code snippets were readable and talks had real impact. This single-track event covered dependency management strategies, Firebase GenKit workflows for local AI testing, and architectural defensive coding patterns.

Among all great talks, two stood out, huge shout out to the speakers for both sessions.

Flutter GenAI revolution is here — no internet, no limits (Sasha Denisov)

Sasha Denisov shows how Gemma runs fully on-device or in-browser, no cloud bills, no privacy tradeoffs. He walks through fine-tuning, hosting options, Gemma 2/3 updates, and practical use cases for CodeGemma/PaliGemma. Perfect if you want GenAI in Flutter without servers.

Own your app code: throw dependencies out of the ring (Vadym Pinchuk)

Vadym Pinchuk walks through pushing fragile packages to the edges with ports-and-adapters, better package selection, and fakes. Great primer on avoiding the dependency trap, keeping tests stable, and owning your architecture.

Flutter Connection, Paris, France, April 3–4, 2025​

Flutter Connection 2025

Flutter Connection is the French conference entirely dedicated to Flutter developers. What makes it unique is its strict filtering rule: no marketing talks, no beginner content. Pure technical depth.

With 250 advanced developers and 20+ talks, topics leaned into internals like memory leak detection, terminal UI rendering using Flutter, and advanced scrolling behavior with Slivers.

There were so many great talks in this conference, but I personally recommend you to watch these two from great speakers.

Flutter-inspired Terminal UIs (Alois Deniel)

a Flutter-style framework for Terminal UIs, reuse your Flutter mental model to build rich TUIs without the usual hacks. Great walkthrough of layout, interaction, and the state of terminal tooling in Dart.

Listening to Users: Feedback and A/B Testing in Flutter (Alicja Ogonowska)

Why watch: concrete patterns for in-app feedback prompts plus A/B testing flows—how to design prompts, run experiments, interpret results, and turn signals into product decisions.

DCM at Flutter Connection​

Our Developer Advocate, Majid Hajian, was present at Flutter Connection and delivered a talk on "Let's Talk About Memory Leaks In Dart And Flutter".

Flutteristas Conference, Online, April 5, 2025​

Flutteristas Conference 2025

A 12-hour online conference celebrating the Flutteristas community (women and non-binary folks in Flutter). Talks covered animations, internationalization, accessibility, and practical topics like API key management. Inclusive, global, and highly practical.

DCM and Majid Hajian were proud to support the production of this inclusive event, helping bring together voices from the Flutteristas community for a full day of technical content and collaboration.

Flutter Ninjas, Tokyo, Japan, May 29–30, 2025​

Flutter Ninjas 2025

FlutterNinjas is the Flutter conference for English speakers in Tokyo, Japan. Japan has a massive Flutter community, but language barriers often isolate it from global discourse.

This event solved that with a fully English-speaking format, highlighting Japan's technical strengths in pixel-perfect UI, advanced text rendering for Japanese typographic systems, and GPU-level optimization.

This event became the bridge between Japanese engineering excellence and the global ecosystem.

DCM at Flutter Ninjas​

DCM was proud to be a Silver Sponsor of Flutter Ninjas 2025, supporting one of the most technically focused Flutter events in Asia.

Our Developer Advocate, Majid Hajian, was present at the conference and delivered a talk on "Let's Talk About Memory Leaks in Dart and Flutter". The session explored practical strategies for detecting, analyzing, and preventing memory leaks in production Flutter applications, a critical topic for enterprise-scale development.

We were also excited to see Csongor Vogel from Talabat, one of our valued customers, present "KonMari your Flutter code using DCM". Inspired by Marie Kondo's KonMari Method, Csongor demonstrated how to organize and maintain Flutter codebases using DCM by eliminating unnecessary code, optimizing widgets, managing assets, and addressing code smells. His talk showcased real-world applications of DCM's capabilities in cleaning up technical debt and maintaining code quality at scale.

One More Talk​

I also recommend you to watch Remi's talk, he pointed out important points that worth watch:

Remi Rousselet is well-known Flutter and Dart Expert and author of packages such as Riverpod and Provider.

FlutterCon USA, NYC, USA, June 25–26, 2025​

FlutterCon USA 2025

FlutterCon USA brings Flutter developers from around the globe to New York City. The 2025 edition was defined by one concept: agentive apps. With 500+ attendees and 60+ talks, Andrew Brogdon's keynote "Agentive Experiences With Flutter" reframed what modern UI means, AI determines the next UI state and Flutter renders it.

The Flutter AI Toolkit was announced as a provider-agnostic wrapper around OpenAI, Gemini, and other LLMs. Firebase + RAG patterns for intelligent support bots also featured prominently.

Additional event: During FlutterCon USA in the same area, there is another tech conference, Droidcon NYC.

There were so many great talks in this conference, I could not watch them all but the ones that I could watch and liked are as follow:

Flutter & Friends, Stockholm, Sweden, August 31 – September 2, 2025​

Flutter & Friends 2025

Flutter & Friends is a conference for the community by the community. It became known as one of the most fun Flutter conferences due to the many social activities pre-conference including bike tours, museum visits, and the famous "Dinner With Strangers" that pairs developers who've never met.

Technical highlights included the flame_3d launch by Luan Nico, shader post-processing demos, and enterprise efficiency patterns for standardizing components across dozens of production apps.

A list of great topics from this conference which I could not watch them all, but I strongly recommend you Filip and Slava talks which are super interesting and and expert level.

FlutterConf LATAM, Quito, Ecuador, September 17, 2025​

FlutterConf LATAM 2025

FlutterConf LATAM brought together 250 attendees from 6+ countries in a multi-language format (Spanish/English).

I personally attended FlutterLATAM2024 and I have to admit that Flutter Latam is one of the best and warmest events you can ever attend.

2026 Announcement: The next edition moves to Cancún, Mexico, signaling continental ambitions to bridge LATAM and North American ecosystems. Will DCM present at the upcoming event? you guess!

FlutterCon Europe, Berlin, Germany, September 24–26, 2025​

FlutterCon Europe 2025

FlutterCon Europe is the biggest Flutter conference. If there's only one Flutter conference you want to attend, this is definitely a good choice. With over 1,000 attendees and 60+ talks across 8 tracks, Berlin is where the global Flutter community aligns its compass. The "hallway track", informal conversations between sessions, sets the tone for how the ecosystem thinks about problems.

DCM at FlutterCon Europe​

DCM was proud to sponsor the lanyards at FlutterCon Europe 2025, ensuring every attendee carried a piece of DCM throughout the event.

Our Developer Advocate, Majid Hajian, delivered two technical talks at the conference:

  1. "8 More Flutter Widgets You're Probably Not Using (But Should Be)" - A deep dive into underutilized Flutter widgets that can significantly improve your app's functionality and user experience. Read the accompanying article: 8 More Flutter Widgets You're Probably Not Using (But Should Be).

  2. "Let's Talk About Memory Leaks in Dart and Flutter" - Exploring practical strategies for detecting, analyzing, and preventing memory leaks in production Flutter applications.

We were also thrilled to see Casey Rogers from Betterment, one of our valued customers, present "Accelerating the Dev Loop with DCM Lints at Betterment".

Casey demonstrated how Betterment leverages DCM's built-in and custom lints to move bugs earlier into the development loop, specifically to the IDE layer where errors are caught through static analysis and lint warnings. By shifting error detection left, Betterment achieved:

  • Faster shipping with reduced development cycles
  • Higher quality code with fewer production issues
  • Less reliance on manual testing and QA processes

The talk explored how errors caught at different stages of the development loop impact developer productivity. The further into the loop an error gets, from IDE warnings to runtime errors, tests, code review, QA, and finally production, the more developer time is wasted and the slower feature velocity becomes.

Casey presented several case studies showing how DCM lints help catch errors at the earliest possible stage, directly improving business outcomes by preventing user-facing issues.

With over 60 talks across 8 tracks, picking just the top talks is tough. However, I recommend you to least watch the keynotes:

And live code by Simon Lightfoot who built a Custom Widgets. This is great to see how far you can go with Flutter.

FlutterBytes Conference, Lagos, Nigeria, October 31 – November 1, 2025​

FlutterBytes 2025

FlutterBytes Conference is Africa's largest Flutter event, bringing together developers, enthusiasts, and industry leaders. With 1,000+ attendees, Lagos brought scale, energy, and authentic community.

FlutterCon Kenya, Nairobi, Kenya, November 5–7, 2025​

FlutterCon Kenya 2025

The first official FlutterCon in Africa with 50+ speakers and 37+ sessions co-located with Droidcon Kenya, organizers exposed native Android developers to Flutter's value while leveraging existing infrastructure.

This conference showed that Flutter's problems are not universal—they're context-dependent.

Flutter Conf India, Bengaluru, India, December 14, 2025​

Flutter Conf India 2025

India remains the volume engine of Flutter development, hosting the largest concentration of Flutter developers globally. The 2025 edition focused on enterprise scale: managing codebases with millions of lines of code, coordinating teams of 50–200 developers, and architectural patterns for distributed, large-scale delivery.

Summing Up​

2025 was a remarkable year for Flutter conferences. These gatherings are not just about learning; they're great for boosting skills, making connections, and staying ahead of the curve in Flutter development.

We hope to see many of you at these conferences in 2026.
