# What is Nylo?
## Introduction
Nylo is a micro-framework for Flutter which is designed to help simplify app development. Every project provides a simple boilerplate to help you build apps easier.
It also comes with a ready-made file structure and setup, letting you start developing right away. Out the box, you'll have access to routing, localization, themes, local storage, push notifications, and more.
## New to Flutter?
A great place to start learning Flutter is through the Flutter website.
They have tons of documentation to help you understand how things work from the core.
You can also subscribe to their YouTube channel for updates, tutorials and information on Flutter.
## Maintenance and release schedule
The release schedule for Nylo will be once or twice a year if there are breaking changes in the upcoming releases. Bugs will be dealt with ad hoc via the GitHub repositories.
The Nylo framework and support repository follow Semantic Versioning.
