An important part of what makes an app special for its users is how engaging and smooth the animations in the user interface (UI) are. Flutter has several ways to include animations in your apps, and you've already seen some of those in Chapter 4, Pong Game - 2D Animations and Gestures. In this chapter, we'll introduce another powerful software to bring your animation skills to the next level: Flare. 

The following topics will be covered in this chapter:

• What's Flare?
• Creating objects with Flare 
• Animating objects with Flare
• Integrating Flare into a Flutter app
