Integrate Flutter into CocoaTouch SDK?
I was able to follow the instructions on https://github.com/flutter/flutter/wiki/Add-Flutter-to-existing-apps to add Flutter as a dependency to a simple single view app and display a FlutterViewController, but did not have success trying the same process for a cocoa touch framework that depends on Flutter.
Is this currently possible? My hope was to be able to build a standalone iOS SDK that is powered by Flutter that other iOS apps could depend on with no direct dependency on Flutter.
Specifically when I tried the SDK approach, Flutter imports failed to resolve with errors relating to not being able to find the Flutter module imports:
error: no such module 'FlutterPluginRegistrant'
import FlutterPluginRegistrant
error: no such module 'Flutter'
import Flutter
Update:
These are the error logs I was seeing initially, but was able to get around them by vendoring the FlutterPluginRegistrant.framework and Flutter.framework with Cocoapods. With that my main app compiles fine when linked to my FlutterSDK framework that includes the flutter dependencies. The issue I'm running into now is with setting up FlutterViewController and it's FlutterEngine / FlutterDartProject to point to the correct paths within the framework for the flutterAssets / dartMain / packages urls. I'm not sure how to pull these in from the framework.

Flutter invites you to write your mobile app in the Dart programming language and build for both Android and iOS. But Dart does not compile to Android’s Dalvik bytecode, nor are you blessed with Dart/Objective-C bindings on iOS. This means that your Dart code is written without direct access to the platform-specific APIs of iOS Cocoa Touch and the Android SDK.
