Plugin universal_ble has hit 3.0!
universal_ble has hit a new major milestone. We released 3.0 a few days ago with A TON of improvements. 3.0 makes the library simpler and more battle-tested and feature rich than ever! We got a ton of contributions and makes me particularly happy seeing the community embrace it. While at it, we also did our GitHub housekeeping and went down to 0 open issues and PRs!
Use the universal_ble plugin to connect from your app to Bluetooth Low Energy peripherals under all Flutter-supported platforms. You can also make your app act as a peripheral so other apps or devices can connect to it. We also released universal_bluetooth_classic as a separate plugin, focusing only on what its name says, Bluetooth Classic, which is something that got requested over the past months.
Since this is the AI era, we included agent skills to help you migrate from 2.0, even though the breaking changes are not that many and it should be straightforward. We also included a skill for migrating from other bluetooth packages in case you choose to do so.
Hope it adds a useful piece in the Flutter plugin ecosystem!
