I have been a full time Android dev for past 5 years, and have really grown to dislike the work. UI development takes up so much of my time. And usually the fix ends up being some small attribute that only has an effect when combining X and Y UI parts.

Had the chance to do some Flutter work, and really enjoyed it. Could knock out the UI and later modify it with ease. Spent most of my time focusing on app logic, and not tons of UI work.

Happy Flutter is spreading elsewhere, I will try this out and spend some time looking into Hummingbird also.

Are you using the ConstraintLayout? Previously, I would have agreed with you. But, I've found the ConstraintLayout to be pretty fantastic when developing UI's.
