Imagine this: you’ve just released your latest Flutter app update. Everything looks perfect—until a critical bug appears minutes later. Traditionally, this would mean rushing to create a new build, submitting it again, and anxiously waiting for App Store and Play Store approvals while users continue facing the issue.

But what if updates didn’t have to be that slow?

In this session, we’ll explore the story and evolution of Shorebird—a powerful solution bringing Code Push capabilities to Flutter. You’ll learn how developers can deploy instant fixes and feature updates directly to users’ devices without waiting for lengthy store review processes.

We’ll dive into how Shorebird works behind the scenes, how it improves the developer workflow, and how it helps teams ship updates faster while maintaining a seamless user experience.
