Flutter and Android Studio Publishing

Ok I am starting to get into the Flutter programming. I am in the process of implementing Flutter in Android Studio.

My question is when publishing a Kotlin app you have to publish with a .aab file for uploading to Google Play.

My question is that when I get to the publishing aspect of Flutter. Is the publishing straight forward, or do I need to convert anything to the .aab file to upload to the Play Store?

Will Android Studio convert everything needed for it to be .aab file?

Solution

  • You can open the Android module of your Flutter app in Android Studio and then generate a signed bundle like for a native Android app.

    1. Tools -> Flutter -> Open for Editing in Android Studio
    2. Build -> Generate Signed Bundle / APK ...

    The docs also describe how to do this manually via command line.
