The Flutter community has made a Simplified Chinese version of the Flutter website available at https://flutter.cn.

If you’d like to install Flutter using an installation bundle, you can replace the domain of the original URL with a trusted mirror to speed it up. For example:

• Original URL:
  https://storage.googleapis.com/{{path}}

• Mirrored URL:
  https://storage.flutter-io.cn/{{path}}

You must also set two environment variables to upgrade Flutter and use the pub package repository in China. Instructions are below.

{{site.alert.important}} Use mirror sites only if you trust the provider. The Flutter team cannot verify their reliability or security. {{site.alert.end}}

If you’re installing or using Flutter in China, it may be helpful to use a trustworthy local mirror site that hosts Flutter’s dependencies. To instruct the Flutter tool to use an alternate storage location, you need to set two environment variables, PUB_HOSTED_URL and FLUTTER_STORAGE_BASE_URL, before running the flutter command.

Taking MacOS or Linux as an example, here are the first few steps in the setup process for using a mirror site. Run the following in a Bash shell from the directory where you wish to store your local Flutter clone:

$ export PUB_HOSTED_URL=https://pub.flutter-io.cn
$ export FLUTTER_STORAGE_BASE_URL=https://storage.flutter-io.cn
$ git clone -b dev {{site.github}}/flutter/flutter.git
$ export PATH="$PWD/flutter/bin:$PATH"
$ cd ./flutter
$ flutter doctor

After these steps, you should be able to continue setting up Flutter normally. From here on, packages fetched by flutter pub get are downloaded from flutter-io.cn in any shell where PUB_HOSTED_URL and FLUTTER_STORAGE_BASE_URL are set.

The flutter-io.cn server is a provisional mirror for Flutter dependencies and packages maintained by GDG China. The Flutter team cannot guarantee long-term availability of this service. You’re free to use other mirrors if they become available. If you’re interested in setting up your own mirror in China, contact flutter-dev@googlegroups.com for assistance.
