Confirming your environment is correct with Flutter Doctor

Flutter comes with a tool called Flutter Doctor. This tool provides a list of everything that needs to be done to make sure that Flutter can run correctly. You are going to use Flutter Doctor as a guide during the installation process. This tool is also invaluable in checking whether your system is up to date.

In your Terminal window, type the following command:

flutter doctor

Flutter Doctor will tell you whether your platform SDKs are configured properly and whether Flutter can see any devices, including physical mobile devices, simulators and emulators, your desktop, and the web browser.
