On May 25th Google released the Fuchsia OS for the Google Home Hub aka first-generation Nest Hub. From the user’s perspective there are no expected changes. However, it is a huge milestone achieved. Fuchsia is the new OS made from scratch, completely different from the previous versions. Surprisingly the release was very quiet without any official announcement and just after Google I/O 2021 has finished. The UI layer is built with Flutter. So that framework will receive even more hype increasing its popularity.
