flutstaller

One command to get a working Flutter development environment on Windows, Linux or macOS — the Flutter SDK, the Android SDK command-line tools and the platform toolchain, installed from the vendors' own official sources.

This project was written by an AI

The installers, the CI workflow and these docs were generated by OpenCode, an AI coding agent, from a written specification, and reviewed before publishing.

Each installer is a single readable file, and every URL it downloads from is listed in How it works. Please read it before you run it — the reasoning is in About this project.

Before you run it

Four things worth knowing before the first run.

It only touches your own account

What	Where	Detail
The components	`C:\development` (Windows) · `~/.bin/development` (Linux, macOS)	Nothing is written outside this folder, except the two Microsoft-controlled locations listed below.
`ANDROID_HOME`, `ANDROID_SDK_ROOT`	your user environment	The machine-wide environment is never modified.
`PATH`	your user environment	Your existing entries and their order are preserved; duplicates are skipped.
`JAVA_HOME`	your user environment	Only set if the installer installed a JDK and `JAVA_HOME` was not already set.

The exact PATH entries it adds:

<root>/flutter/bin
<root>/Android/Sdk/platform-tools
<root>/Android/Sdk/cmdline-tools/latest/bin
<root>/jdk/bin            (only if a JDK was installed)
<root>/Git/cmd            (only if Git was installed)

On Windows, the user PATH lives in the registry. On Linux and macOS the shell profile is edited inside a managed block that is rewritten on every run, so a PATH entry can never be duplicated.

Two Windows locations are outside your control. The Visual Studio Installer itself and the Windows SDK always install under %ProgramFiles% — Microsoft hard-codes both, so no flag can move them.

It needs two things it will not install unasked

Requirement	Why	If it is missing
Git	The `flutter` command fails with "Unable to find git in your PATH".	The installer shows a panel and asks whether to install it. Nothing is installed without that answer.
A JDK 17+	Gradle needs one to build Android apps. (The Android SDK tools carry their own runtime, so the SDK itself configures without one.)	Same: you are asked. On Windows the installer can also add Microsoft's own `Component.OpenJDK` to the Visual Studio install instead.

Both can also be installed up front with -InstallPrerequisites (or FLUTSTALLER_INSTALL_PREREQUISITES=1) for unattended runs. If you decline, the rest of the installation still happens and the missing pieces are listed as outstanding actions in the final report.

It needs disk space

	Windows	Linux / macOS
Flutter SDK	~3.5 GB	~3.5 GB
Android SDK	~2 GB	~2 GB
Platform toolchain	Visual Studio 2026: ~10–14 GB	Linux packages: ~2 GB · macOS: Xcode is a separate download
Total	~20 GB	~8 GB

The Windows installer checks the free space and warns you if it looks tight.

Downloads are staged in a work directory next to the install root, on the same filesystem — not in /tmp or %TEMP%, which are often small or RAM-backed and cannot hold a 1 GB archive. The free space is checked before each transfer starts, so a full disk is reported plainly instead of as a confusing write error half way through.

It never accepts a licence for you

Android SDK — the installer shows you what the agreement is and where to read it, then waits for you to type y. -Yes does not answer this.
Visual Studio — the installer runs with --passive, never --quiet, so you accept Microsoft's licence in the installer window.
Xcode (macOS) — the installer shows you where to read Apple's agreement and asks before accepting it.

Quick start

1. Check your machine first

Both installers can report what they would do without changing anything.

# Windows
.\install.ps1 -PreflightOnly    # your environment: policy, prerequisites, what is missing
.\install.ps1 -DryRun           # the full plan: every download, install and variable

# Linux and macOS
./install.sh --preflight-only
./install.sh --dry-run

-PreflightOnly makes no network requests at all. -DryRun resolves the real vendor manifests so the plan is accurate, but installs nothing.

2. Install

# Windows
git clone https://github.com/kernelk14/flutstaller.git
cd REPO
.\install.ps1

# Linux and macOS
git clone https://github.com/kernelk14/flutstaller.git
cd REPO
./install.sh

Or without cloning, straight from the URL — see the table at the top of this page, or Remote execution for the details and the cautions.

On Windows there is also a launcher that checks your execution policy first and prints the exact command to fix it if PowerShell would refuse to run the script:

run-setup.cmd

3. Open a new terminal

The PATH changes only affect new shells. Open a new terminal (or source ~/.zshrc on Linux and macOS) and check:

flutter doctor -v
adb version

What it looks like

The installer is a small console application: a banner, framed section headers, boxed panels and a colour-coded report. It falls back to plain ASCII when the console cannot render box-drawing characters.

Long-running steps (the Visual Studio installer, the Android CLI, flutter doctor -v) show a spinner and the elapsed time.

The run ends with a report that says exactly what happened to every component and what is still outstanding:

+- SUMMARY ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

   [!] Machine-wide ANDROID_HOME
      Change the machine-wide ANDROID_HOME to C:\development\Android\Sdk (or remove it), otherwise it
      shadows the value set for your account.

A failing component never stops the rest

Each component is installed in isolation. If one fails the run continues: the environment is still configured, the remaining components are still installed, and the failure is reported with a next action. The exit code is non-zero so automation can react.

How it works

Versions are resolved at run time, never hard-coded

Every download URL is read from the vendor's own published manifest immediately before use, so you always get current official artifacts:

Component	Manifest	Verification
Flutter	`storage.googleapis.com/flutter_infra_release/releases/releases_<platform>.json`	SHA-256 from the manifest
Android command-line tools	`dl.google.com/android/repository/repository2-3.xml`	SHA-1 from the manifest
Android packages	the same manifest	vendor-signed
Visual Studio 2026	`aka.ms/vs/stable/vs_community.exe` (always the latest servicing release)	Microsoft installer
Git for Windows	the official `git-for-windows/git` release feed	vendor installer
Linux packages	the distribution's own repository	distribution-signed

A checksum mismatch aborts that download.

The Android SDK is configured with the current Android CLI

cmdline-tools 23.0 and newer ship the Android CLI (android), a native binary that manages the SDK itself and carries its own Java runtime. Google now marks sdkmanager as deprecated in favour of android sdk, so that is what the script uses:

android --sdk="C:\development\Android\Sdk" sdk install platform-tools build-tools/36.1.0 platforms/android-36

If an older cmdline-tools without that binary is found, the script falls back to sdkmanager — which does need a JDK.

The Android platform that gets installed is not guessed. The script reads compileSdkVersion out of the Flutter SDK it just installed (packages/flutter_tools/gradle/src/main/kotlin/FlutterExtension.kt) and installs exactly that platform, plus the newest published stable build-tools.

Administrator rights

Platform	When elevation is needed
Windows	Only for the Visual Studio step. The script checks first and asks whether it may re-launch in an elevated PowerShell window — it never re-launches elevated silently. If it does, your account's `PATH` and variables are still updated for you, even if the elevated window belongs to a different administrator.
Linux	`sudo`, for the distribution's packages only.
macOS	`sudo`, for the Xcode licence only.

Nothing else runs as root.

Visual Studio 2026 and the install path (Windows)

Visual Studio 2026 does support a custom install path, and the script uses it:

vs_community.exe --installPath C:\development\VisualStudio ...

On a machine with no previous Visual Studio installation it also relocates the shared components and the download cache:

--path shared=C:\development\VisualStudio\Shared
--path cache=C:\development\VisualStudio\Cache

Those two can only be set on the first Visual Studio installation on a machine; if the installer rejects them the script retries without them.

Only the C++ workload and what a Flutter Windows desktop build needs is installed:

Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.NativeDesktop — Desktop development with C++
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.Tools.x86.x64 — MSVC x64/x86 build tools
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.CMake.Project — C++ CMake tools for Windows
the Windows SDK — a recommended component of that workload. The recommended set is taken so the correct, current SDK build ships with Visual Studio 2026, rather than a hard-coded and quickly stale component ID.

No unrelated workload is added. Component.OpenJDK is added only when no JDK was found on the machine.

Options

Switches

Windows	Linux / macOS	Effect
`-PreflightOnly`	`--preflight-only`	Report the environment — policy, prerequisites, what is missing, what would change — and exit. No network access, nothing changed.
`-DryRun`	`--dry-run`	Resolve every version and URL, print the full plan, and exit. Nothing is changed.
`-InstallRoot <path>`	`--install-root <path>`	Install everything under a different root.
`-VsEdition <Community\|Professional\|Enterprise>`	—	Visual Studio 2026 edition. Default `Community`.
`-Yes`	—	Do not ask the "proceed with the installation" question. Licences are never accepted automatically.
`-InstallPrerequisites`	`--install-prerequisites`	Also install a missing Git and JDK, without being asked.
`-SkipVisualStudio`	`--skip-desktop-toolchain`	Do not install the platform toolchain.
`-SkipAndroid`	`--skip-android`	Do not install the Android SDK.
`-SkipAndroidLicenses`	`--skip-android-licenses`	Do not run the Android SDK licence step.
`-SkipVerification`	`--skip-verification`	Do not run the final checks.
`-LogDirectory <path>`	`--log-dir <path>`	Where to write the run log.

Environment variables

Needed when you cannot pass parameters — which is the case with irm … | iex and curl … | bash. A command-line parameter always wins.

Variable	Equivalent
`FLUTSTALLER_INSTALL_ROOT`	`-InstallRoot`
`FLUTSTALLER_VS_EDITION`	`-VsEdition`
`FLUTSTALLER_INSTALL_PREREQUISITES`	`-InstallPrerequisites`
`FLUTSTALLER_SKIP_VISUAL_STUDIO`	`-SkipVisualStudio`
`FLUTSTALLER_SKIP_ANDROID`	`-SkipAndroid`
`FLUTSTALLER_SKIP_ANDROID_LICENSES`	`-SkipAndroidLicenses`
`FLUTSTALLER_SKIP_VERIFICATION`	`-SkipVerification`
`FLUTSTALLER_DRY_RUN`	`-DryRun`
`FLUTSTALLER_PREFLIGHT_ONLY`	`-PreflightOnly`
`FLUTSTALLER_YES`	`-Yes`
`FLUTSTALLER_LOG_DIRECTORY`	`-LogDirectory`

FLUTSTALLER_INSTALL_ROOT=/opt/dev FLUTSTALLER_YES=1 \
  curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kernelk14/flutstaller/main/install.sh | bash

The interactive menu

Run without --yes (or -Yes) and the installer asks what you want:

+- WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO INSTALL? ---------------------------------------------------------------+
|   ->  1   Install all three components                                                           |
|   ->  2   The Flutter SDK on its own                                                             |
|   ->  3   The Android SDK on its own                                                             |
|   ->  4   The platform toolchain on its own                                                      |
|   ->  5   Preflight report only (change nothing)                                                 |
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

It is skipped when running unattended or from a pipe, so the one-liner and the CI paths stay non-interactive. An explicit switch always wins over the menu — -SkipAndroid still skips the Android SDK even if you pick "everything".

The platform differences, in one table

	Windows	Linux	macOS
Install root	`C:\development`	`~/.bin/development`	`~/.bin/development`
Toolchain	Visual Studio 2026 + MSVC, CMake, Windows SDK	`clang`, `cmake`, `ninja`, `pkg-config`, GTK 3 and libstdc++ headers	Xcode, `xcode-select`, `xcodebuild -license`
Package manager	the Visual Studio bootstrapper	`apt`, `dnf`, `yum`, `zypper`, `pacman`, `apk`, `xbps`, `emerge`, `eopkg` — detected	Homebrew, when present
Elevation	UAC prompt	`sudo`, for the packages only	`sudo`, for the Xcode licence only
Shell profile	the user `PATH` in the registry	`~/.bashrc` / `~/.zshrc` / `~/.profile`	`~/.zshrc`
Web target	Chrome (detected)	Chrome (detected)	Safari (built in)
Apple Silicon	—	—	the `mac_arm64` Android tools are selected; Rosetta 2 is checked for

The Linux desktop packages

Flutter's documentation lists clang, cmake, ninja-build, pkg-config, libgtk-3-dev and libstdc++-12-dev. The script maps them onto whichever package manager it finds:

Purpose	apt	dnf / yum	zypper	pacman	apk
C/C++ compiler	`clang`	`clang`	`clang`	`clang`	`clang`
Build system	`cmake`	`cmake`	`cmake`	`cmake`	`cmake`
Build executor	`ninja-build`	`ninja-build`	`ninja`	`ninja`	`ninja-build`
Library discovery	`pkg-config`	`pkgconf-pkg-config`	`pkg-config`	`pkgconf`	`pkgconf`
GTK 3 headers	`libgtk-3-dev`	`gtk3-devel`	`gtk3-devel`	`gtk3`	`gtk3-dev`
liblzma headers	`liblzma-dev`	`liblzma-devel`	`liblzma-devel`	`xz`	`xz-dev`
OpenGL (Mesa)	`libglu1-mesa`	`mesa-libGLU-devel`	`libglu1-mesa`	`glu`	`mesa-glu-dev`
C++ standard library	`libstdc++-N-dev`	`libstdc++-devel`	`libstdc++-devel`	`gcc`	`libstdc++-dev`

xbps-install, emerge and eopkg are supported too. The -N- in libstdc++-N-dev is resolved at run time — the number follows the GCC major version (12 on Ubuntu 22.04, 13 on 24.04, 14 on 24.10), so the newest one the distribution actually offers is used.

On macOS

There is no package manager in the box, so:

Xcode is required. If the command line tools are missing, the installer offers to install them (xcode-select --install, which opens the system dialog) and explains what to do afterwards.
Rosetta 2 is checked for on Apple Silicon. The install command accepts a licence of its own, so it is left for you to run.
Homebrew, when present, is used for anything that needs installing.

Remote execution

Both installers are written to survive being piped, where there is no file on disk:

Situation	Behaviour
No script file	It never calls `exit` — on Windows that would close your PowerShell session.
Log location	Written to a temporary folder; the path is printed.
Your session's `StrictMode`	Restored to whatever it was when the script finishes.
Configuration	Read from the environment variables above.
Elevation (Windows)	It fetches the canonical copy of the script to a temporary file and runs that in the elevated window.

You can also pass parameters by turning the download into a script block:

& ([scriptblock]::Create((irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kernelk14/flutstaller/main/install.ps1))) -InstallRoot 'D:\dev' -DryRun

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kernelk14/flutstaller/main/install.sh | bash --dry-run

Running without a terminal

A piped run has no terminal on standard input, so anything that would ask a question would read EOF and silently do nothing. The installers therefore detect this and behave differently:

	With a terminal	Piped / unattended
The component menu	shown	skipped
"Proceed with the installation?"	asked	proceeds — you asked for it
The Android SDK licence	asked	accepted, after the agreement is printed in full. It is recorded in the SDK's `licenses` folder and listed in the report
The Xcode licence	asked	not accepted — an Apple licence always needs an explicit confirmation, so it is reported as an outstanding action instead
The prerequisites (Git, JDK)	asked	not installed unless you pass `-InstallPrerequisites`

A word of caution. irm … | iex executes whatever the server returns at that moment, without showing you the code first. That is a property of the pattern, not of this project. If that trade-off is not for you, download the file and read it — each installer is a single readable file, and every URL it uses is listed in How it works.

For a reproducible install, pin a version. main moves, and the CDN that serves it can briefly lag behind a push. Use a tag or a commit instead:

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kernelk14/flutstaller/v0.2.0/install.ps1 | iex

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kernelk14/flutstaller/v0.2.0/install.sh | bash

Verification

When the installer finishes it runs and reports on:

flutter --version
flutter config --enable-windows-desktop (or --enable-linux-desktop / --enable-macos-desktop)
flutter doctor -v
flutter doctor --android-licenses (interactive — you confirm each licence)
adb version
Windows — the MSVC compiler (cl.exe), the CMake tools, MSBuild and the Windows SDK
Linux — clang, cmake, ninja, pkg-config and the GTK 3 development libraries (pkg-config --exists gtk+-3.0)
macOS — Xcode
that flutter and adb resolve through PATH
that the accepted Android SDK licence was recorded in the SDK's licenses folder

If any check fails the installer says so and exits non-zero — it never reports success when a verification failed.

Re-running it

The installers are safe to run again:

Existing installations are detected and left untouched — Flutter, the command-line tools, the Android packages and Visual Studio are each skipped.
PATH entries are compared case-insensitively and are never duplicated.
Nothing is deleted and no existing directory is overwritten. If a target directory exists but is not a valid installation, the script stops with an error instead of replacing it.
Environment variables that already hold the right value are left alone.

Logs

Every run writes a log next to the script — logs/flutter-setup-<timestamp>.log — or to a temporary folder (%TEMP%\flutstaller-logs, /tmp/flutstaller-logs) when the script is piped. It contains the full output of each step, the resolved download URLs, the checksums and the verification results.

Attach the log to any bug report — it is by far the most useful thing you can provide.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	What to do
"Unable to find git in your PATH"	Git is missing. Install it from https://git-scm.com/download/win on Windows, or with your package manager on Linux and macOS. Or re-run with `-InstallPrerequisites`.
`flutter doctor` reports no Java	A JDK is missing. Re-run with `-InstallPrerequisites`, or allow the Visual Studio OpenJDK component on Windows (the installer does this automatically when no JDK is found).
"running scripts is disabled on this system"	See Script execution policy below.
The Visual Studio installer was cancelled	Exit code 1602 means the installer window was closed. Re-run the script.
The Visual Studio installer returns 740	It needs elevation. Re-run from an elevated PowerShell window.
`flutter doctor` cannot find the Android SDK	Run `flutter config --android-sdk <your install root>/Android/Sdk`.
`flutter doctor` says the GTK 3 libraries are missing (Linux)	Install `libgtk-3-dev` (or `gtk3-devel`, `gtk3`, `gtk3-dev` on the other distributions) — the installer does this, but it needs `sudo`.
`xcode-select: error: tool 'xcode-select' requires macOS 10.15 or later` (macOS)	The command line tools are missing. Re-run the installer, or run `xcode-select --install` and finish the system dialog.
`xcodebuild: error: The license is not accepted` (macOS)	Run `sudo xcodebuild -license` and read the agreement.
The Mac is Apple Silicon and an x86_64 tool will not run	Install Rosetta 2: `softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license`.
The Android CLI is not found after the install	The command-line tools may be older than 23.0, which had no native `android` binary. Re-run the installer to update them.
Not enough disk space	Free up space, or point `-InstallRoot` / `--install-root` at a drive with room.
The script is blocked by the execution policy (Windows)	`Unblock-File -LiteralPath .\install.ps1` — this changes no policy.
`Permission denied` running `./install.sh`	The file lost its executable bit. Run `chmod +x install.sh`, or just `bash install.sh`.

Script execution policy

Your effective policy is normally RemoteSigned, which runs local scripts freely and only blocks scripts that Windows has marked as "downloaded from the internet" (and that are unsigned).

Get-ExecutionPolicy -List

run-setup.cmd checks this for you and prints the right remedy:

Situation	Remedy
The script carries a mark-of-the-web	`Unblock-File -LiteralPath '<path>'` — one file, no policy change
The policy is `Restricted`	`Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser RemoteSigned -Force` — per user, no admin rights needed
The policy is `AllSigned` and the script is unsigned	`Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser RemoteSigned -Force`

Avoid Bypass and Unrestricted. Bypass disables script security entirely for that scope or process, so anything that runs in it is unverified. This project never uses it.

About this project

flutstaller was written by an AI. The whole repository — the installers, the CI workflow, this documentation — was generated by OpenCode, an AI coding agent, from a written specification. A human reviewed the result and published it, but the code itself came out of a model.

Why say so, plainly

An installer is a program that downloads and runs things on your machine with your permissions. That is exactly the kind of program where "trust me" is a weak argument, and exactly the kind of program a reader deserves to know the provenance of.

The honest position is:

You should not run code you have not read, and this code is no exception. That is why each installer is a single readable file rather than a framework.
The security properties are verifiable by reading it. The script downloads from a handful of hosts, all of them the vendor's own, and they are listed in How it works. It verifies the SHA-256 of the Flutter archive and the SHA-1 of the Android command-line tools against the checksums the vendors publish. It never calls Set-ExecutionPolicy, never uses -ExecutionPolicy Bypass, and never installs anything you did not ask for.
It has been run on real machines. The Android SDK, the PATH entries and the environment variables described in this README were produced by actual runs, and the CI workflow exercises the file, pipe and dry-run paths on every push — on Windows, Ubuntu and macOS.
It is not finished forever. Issues are welcome — see Contributing. A human-maintained fork is a perfectly reasonable thing to want.

What "written by an AI" does and does not mean

It means the code came from a language model rather than from someone's keystrokes. It does not mean nobody checked it: the behaviour described here was verified by running it, the edge cases in Troubleshooting were found by hitting them, and the changelog records what was fixed and why.

If you would rather not use it

That is a completely reasonable position. The components it installs all have their own official installers:

Component	Official download
Flutter SDK	https://docs.flutter.dev/install/manual
Android SDK command-line tools	https://developer.android.com/tools/agents/android-cli/download
Visual Studio 2026 (Windows)	https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/
Linux desktop packages	your distribution's package manager
Xcode (macOS)	the App Store, or https://developer.apple.com/xcode/

The value this project adds is doing the whole thing in one pass, from the vendors' own manifests, with the PATH and environment variables configured consistently and a report at the end telling you what state you are in. If that is not worth running AI-written code for, install them by hand — the Before you run it section tells you exactly what to set.

Contributing

Pull requests are welcome — see CONTRIBUTING.md for the checks to run before you open one.

Security

Please do not open a public issue for a security problem — see SECURITY.md.

It needs two things it will not install unasked

It needs disk space

It never accepts a licence for you

2. Install

3. Open a new terminal

What it looks like

Versions are resolved at run time, never hard-coded

The Android SDK is configured with the current Android CLI

Administrator rights

Visual Studio 2026 and the install path (Windows)

Options

Switches

Environment variables

The interactive menu

The platform differences, in one table

The Linux desktop packages

On macOS

Remote execution
