Aqueduct was built before Flutter, it is more like a regular web server written in Dart. Serverpod is build specifically with Flutter developers in mind, making it very easy to build APIs. Serverpod will actually analyze your server code an

Working for Google is awesome in many ways and the people at the Flutter team at the time I worked there were nothing less than outstanding. For me personally, working at Google wasn't my first choice as I ended up there when the start
