Flutter is Google's UI toolkit for building beautiful, natively compiled applications for mobile, web, desktop and embedded devices from a single codebase.

Hydro-SDK is a software development kit (SDK) enabling Flutter developers to write portions of their app (or their entire app) using Typescript. It is a project with one large, ambitious goal. "Become React Native for Flutter". It aims to do that by:

Hydro-SDK builds and manages code in terms of projects. Projects consist of components. Hydro-SDK content is embedded into a host app using the RunComponent widget. While developing with Hydro-SDK locally, the RunComponent widget and hydroc run command work together to rebuild and hot-reload your code as you make changes. See the getting started tutorial for a full description.

This is great when developing locally using Hydro-SDK. What if your entire app isn't written with Hydro-SDK? What about developers writing Dart code in an app where Hydro-SDK is only a small part? Should they have to worry about having hydroc run running? What about end users of your app? This is where the Hydro-SDK Registry comes in.
