Google Antigravity

Learn about Google Antigravity agentic coding tools.

Introduction

#

Google Antigravity is a suite of agentic development tools for building apps, including Flutter apps. You can pair with Antigravity to solve coding tasks, create new codebases, modify existing ones, and answer questions.

The Antigravity suite includes:

  • Antigravity 2.0: The core agentic assistant experience, driven via a Terminal User Interface (TUI) or Command-Line Interface (CLI).
  • Antigravity IDE: The focused editor experience featuring an integrated agent panel.

This page describes the Antigravity IDE. For details on using the command-line tool, see the Antigravity CLI page.

To learn some of what Antigravity is capable of, watch this talk from Google I/O 2026.

Installation and setup

#

Install the latest version of Antigravity for your platform by visiting the Antigravity site.

  1. Open Antigravity

    When opening Antigravity for the first time, a How do you want to use Antigravity screen displays and provides some radio buttons and pulldown menus for customizing your use of the tool.

    We recommend that you select Review-driven development. This means that Antigravity asks you to approve each command that it wants to run.

    You can change this setting at any time to give Antigravity more or less control. Even if you select Agent driven development, which allows Antigravity to directly run commands without approval, you can specify certain commands that will always ask for your approval, such as the rm command to remove files.

  2. Install the Dart and Flutter extensions

    Open the Extensions menu in the left nav and search for Dart. The search results bring up both the Dart and Flutter extensions. Click the Install button for Dart and then do the same for Flutter.

  3. Set up any MCP servers that you use

    1. Navigate to or open the Agent side panel.

      If it's closed, open it by either:

      • Pressing Cmd/Ctrl + L.
      • Going to View > Open View... > Agent.

      In the upper right of the Agent panel, click the Additional options (...) menu button.

    2. Select MCP Servers.

    3. In the upper right of the Agent panel, click Manage MCP Servers.

      The MCP Store screen appears and you can search for Dart, which is likely already in the list. Click Install.

      After installing any servers that you want, view them by clicking the Manage MCP Servers button and click View raw config to access your JSON manifest.

  4. Get started developing

    For these tips and more that show some of Antigravity's benefits, watch the following 10-minute Flutter + Antigravity video:

Agentic Hot Reload

#

If you are using Antigravity in Agent mode, the agent can automatically hot reload your running application when you prompt it to modify your app. This enables a hands-free, "prompt-to-reload" workflow that reduces context switching and development latency.
