It has been a year since I decided to start learning Flutter [https://programming.dev/post/186393](Original Post), and it has been an amazing experience. Throughout this year, I managed to land an internship as a Flutter developer, get a decent job as a Flutter developer, and graduate with a computer science degree. So for anyone who is hesitating to start learning Flutter out of fear of the job market, I can tell you not to worry, there are a lot of jobs available. Some good resources to start with are the official Flutter documentation (which is incredible), as well as the official Flutter YouTube channel.

Finally, thanks to everyone who helped me when I was starting with Flutter, and good luck to all those who are just getting started.

My phone (Samsung A14) is low-end, and lags while using an app made with Flutter.

I posted about this package before and just got made fun of for the name, but this is a useful update for developers that work on large mono-repos on a daily basis. The puby link command used to require pubspec.lock files to be checked into version control in order to know which dependencies to grab, which most open source mono-repos do not allow. Notably, I work on the flutter/packages repo a lot and dealing with dependency resolution is a pain, but I just released an update to puby to fix this. This involves reusing the dependency resolution code directly from the pub command in order to catalog dependencies rather than relying on lock files. What this means in practice is you can have an empty pub cache, make a clean clone of the flutter/packages repo, and have all dependencies resolved in less than 30 seconds. The puby link command is now almost twice as fast as melos bootstrap and requires zero setup whereas melos likes to complain about your repository structure.

Hiya everyone! We're on the Fediverse! #introduction

Date Calculator is a Flutter app to calculate date related things, it is still in alpha/pre-alpha so it is not feature complete, but the bare minimum is already here.

It is developed by @winsdominoes at the request of @AmyIsCoolz :3

It is available on Linux, Android, MacOS, and Windows Download here: https://github.com/WinsDominoes/dateapp/releases/ Flatpak: https://github.com/AtiusAmy/net.winscloud.DateCalculator/releases/

I gave a talk about my flutter_filament package, which integrates the Filament PBR renderer so you can display 3D content in Flutter applications.

For context, I work as a Mobile App developer for a company and use Flutter. We implemented Ads for our clients, and they have implemented lots of ads (a minimum of 3 in each screen).

After adding Ads, we noticed a small performance drop in Android devices. However, the performance on newer iOS devices is terrible.

There is already an open issue on Github and it seems the conflict is because Flutter display Ads using Native Views.

Did anyone here suffer from this and found a solution? We're currently debating if we will rewrite the app entirely in React Native.

> Last year, we partnered with the team at gSkinner to develop Wonderous, a reference app to showcase the high-quality experiences possible with Flutter. One of the goals for creating Wonderous was to provide an open-source example that demonstrates best practices. In that same spirit, we audited Wonderous against Android’s large screen guidelines.

It's a Medium article but shouldn't count against any stupid quotas since it is from the Flutter team.

I haven't seen any of the issues mentioned in the article. I suspect it is related to the libraries the author's project is using and I may not be using. These look like good temporary workarounds until fixes in the libraries can be rolled out.

Here's a nice simple article explaining enhanced enums that have been around for a while but may be something overlooked. Between these and sealed classes I think Dart has an excellent story for pattern matching.

Flutter Connection 2023 was held in Paris on June 2nd. There are 12 videos available to watch from YouTube with some interesting topics covered.

This edition covers Flutter performance tips, parallel API calls, the power of the late keyword, hook widgets for state management, and various Flutter-related videos and packages.

Disclaimer: I made this

I've been wanting a way to create type-safe Firebase rules for a while, so I made this package to let you do just that. I've used it for several of my projects now, and it's so much nicer than raw-dogging the rules syntax with no autocomplete. I was able to write rules from scratch without referencing the documentation once, and they deployed first try without any errors. I'm always hungry for feedback on my work, so please feel free to comment any feedback or suggestions.

There were many sessions at FlutterCon in Berlin and they’re now available to watch online.

A few days ago I had this urge of making my own music player, since I have a Subsonic capable server (ampache) to host and serve music. I've been using DSub, which has a lot of features that I don't use, but works very very well. Alas it isn't "up to date" in terms of design.

So I made my own, heavily inspired by Android 13, Material 3 enabled, has dynamic colors / system theme fallback (a small thing that goes a long way, I didn't want to make an half baked customisation screen, since Android already has one why not use it?)

This was my very first Flutter and Dart experience, and I must say it was very enjoyable! The docs are awesome, there are a lot of plugins to choose from, hot reloading... I know now that I needed that feature, it's a must have to iterate quickly! I might have reduce the amount of time I slept the past few days but it was very well worth it.

Here is demo video https://imgur.com/a/SwOxcij (it has changed a bit since then, mostly on boarders/padding, by a few pixels at most but still relevant ; more up to date pictures on the readme of the github repo)!

Did anyone achieve animations while reordering lists in Flutter? (With grid or list view) Like Android's native Recycler View behaviour.

When you reorder the list items animate to new positions. With ListView.builder they just update with no animations.

Is this possible with AnimatedList?

This looks super-cool, maybe could be useful to some :)

Hey guys, very new to flutter and have been learning in order to start making pull requests on Github. However its been a while since ive used a non-R programming language so I might be a bit rusty with some concepts.

For reference, the repo i want to help out is Thunder

What im trying to do is cause a page to scroll to the top, when the user presses the bottom navigation bar button for that page.

So it goes PageView, CommunityPage, then PostCardList, which is a class containing a ListView showing the cards and whatever else.

I get that I need to pass one of the scrollControllers up to the main PageView level, and then use the BottomNavigationBar onTap (index) function to call an animateTo on it. But i dont know where, or how i pass the scrollcontroller up a level. When i know how, do i just pass it from the PostCardList class, to the CommunityPage class, to the PageView-level class? Or is there some better way??

Sorry for such a low level question but ive been learning this for like 2 or 3 days and have no experience whatsoever hahaha

Thanks!

Recently started testing different frameworks to build small standalone apps to help manage a bigger (quite large) system. Latest one I was working with was TKinter for python and it was good. Running queries and generating reports. but the UI was very outdated. Yesterday I started looking into flutter for windows desktop and been looking at available packages on pub.dev

I am just starting to learn flutter so it may be a minute before I can contribute. But if anyone here is interested here is the github link!

hello everyone, I wanted to learn flutter for more than a year now, but I never did. I think this will change soon, though. The thing is, I've been assigned to work on a Flutter project by my professor, and I have around a week before the project starts. I want to use this week to learn as much about Flutter as possible, and that way I can understand what other team members will be planning. We have two months to complete the project, so I'll be sure to learn more further down the line. I know a week is not enough to get really good at Flutter, but all I want is to be able to understand what they will plan and work accordingly.

So the question is: what is the best way to get started with Flutter? I can give around 4 to 5 hours a day of learning, and I have prior knowledge of web development, specifically React and Django. So if anyone has any suggestions, I'd be honored to hear from you guys. Thanks to you all.
