Flutter: Need a way to distribute plugins/services for Flutter
With the (new) hello_services architecture, "plugins" or services for flutter consist of 3 pieces:
- iOS specific HostMessage sender/listener code (obj-c or swift)
- Android specific HostMessage sender/listener code (java)
- dart HostMessage sender/listener code and x-platform api abstraction.
And of course the necessary code to build/integrate the iOS and Android code into the developer's final application (cocoapods? gradle/maven?).
We don't yet have a full design for this. This bug is just for tracking.

Just to throw in a "nice to have," don't know if it's desirable, just a bit of feedback from a potential user: At SoundCloud, we use few C++ libs for sharing code between iOS and Android. Might be cool to have native C++ support in addition to the Android / iOS path.
That way, we could integrate Flutter directly with our C++ libs, rather than wrapping them in iOS / Android code, and then wrapping them once more for Flutter.
