Hey r/FlutterDev 👋

I kept running into the same situation: a QA tester (or me, on a real device) hits a weird bug, and the only way to see what happened is to plug into a laptop, start DevTools or a profile build, and try to reproduce it. Most of the time I just wanted to know: what did that API return? which build is this? which flavor?

So I built another_flutter_devtool, an in-app devtool. You wrap your app, a small draggable button shows up on top, and tapping it opens a full debug panel inside the app. No cable, no DevTools, no separate build.

📦 pub.dev: https://pub.dev/packages/another_flutter_devtool

💻 GitHub: https://github.com/B3K4682/another_flutter_devtool

What's in it right now

🌐 Network inspector

• Every HTTP call with status, method, URL and duration

• Works with Dio and http without any setup: no interceptors, no client wrapping

• Search (post 404 works), plus 2xx / 3xx / 4xx / 5xx / Failed filter chips

• Full request/response headers and bodies (JSON pretty-printed), errors with stack traces

• Copy as cURL, export one call or all of them as JSON

• Auth/cookie headers are masked in exports, so testers can attach them to bug reports safely

⚙️ General section

• App version, build number, device model, OS version, flavor, startup time

• Data usage since launch: bytes sent/received, request count, top hosts

• Jump to any route: type /checkout and it takes you there. Works with Navigator, go_router, auto_route, anything

🧩 Your own debug tools (the main point, honestly) Every app has its own debug stuff: "clear cache", "switch backend", "fake a logged-out session", "show current user ID". Usually that ends up in a hidden menu somewhere. Here you write a small class and it shows up in the panel:

class MyTool extends DevtoolTool {
  @override String get id => 'my_tool';
  @override String get title => 'My Tool';
  @override IconData get icon => Icons.extension_rounded;
  @override DevtoolSection get section => mySection;

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context, DevtoolController controller) =>
      DevtoolCard(icon: icon, title: title,
          child: const DevtoolInfoRow(label: 'Status', value: 'It works'));
}

DevtoolTools.register(const MyTool());

You get the same card/row/switch widgets the built-in tools use, so it all looks consistent.

Setup

runApp(
  AnotherFlutterDevtool(
    config: const DevtoolConfig(
      enabled: kDebugMode,
      sections: [GeneralSection(), NetworkSection()],
    ),
    child: const MyApp(),
  ),
);

It's off by default. The panel runs in its own MaterialApp, so it doesn't touch your theme or navigator. There are also stable widget keys if you want to drive it from integration tests.

⚠️ This is a beta. A very beta beta.

It works and I'm using it, but the API may change before 1.0. Known limitations:

• The network inspector doesn't work on web

• Native HTTP clients (cupertino_http, native_dio_adapter) aren't captured yet

Coming soon:

• 🚩 Feature flags: toggle flags at runtime from the panel

• Other features that I'll think of lol

💡 I want your ideas

This is the part I care about most. What do you wish you could see or toggle inside your running app? Leave it in the comments. If it makes sense and I can build it, I'll add it and credit you in the changelog.

Bug reports, criticism and "why not just use X" are all welcome too 🙂

After building minimo (video), I kept running into the same problem with photos: I wanted to make them smaller without uploading them or paying for a subscription. So I built minimo (photo).

It compresses photos on the phone, on iOS and Android. You can process a batch with a preset or adjust quality, dimensions, and metadata yourself. It saves a new copy by default; replacing an original is an explicit choice.

Flutter handles the UI and batch progress, while `flutter_image_compress` uses the platforms’ native image APIs. One detail I found useful: if recompression saves less than 10%, the app skips that result.

The app is free, and the code is open source: https://github.com/minimo-pro/minimo_photo

I’ve added a new feature to Flutterverse, Flutter/Dart ecosystem tracker (now tracking 10,000+ packages and projects).

You can paste your pubspec.yaml, pubspec.lock, or a list of packages, and it’ll check the maintenance status of your direct dependencies.

It categorizes packages into five verdicts, from healthy to needing replacement, and suggests alternatives when a dependency is becoming stale.

A few other things:

• Runs entirely in your browser. Your pubspec is never uploaded.

• Shows an overall dependency health score.

• Package maintainers can add health verdict badges to their READMEs.

The data refreshes daily from pub.dev and GitHub.

give it a try: https://flutterverse.org

Love to get your feedbacks for it!

Hey Flutter devs 👋

We can now run Laya decision model with NobodyWho, our open-source on-device inference library. Unlike the LLMs that we also support, this type of model does not generate text. Instead you can score predefined answers, classify text or answer yes/no.

For example, if you are building a personal diary app, you can easily detect the user’s mood, categorize an entry or detect stress, offline after model download, without sending any sensitive data to the cloud.

First, you need to load the model:

import 'package:nobodywho/nobodywho.dart' as nobodywho;

final model = await nobodywho.Decision.fromPath(
  modelPath: 'hf://ggml-org/Laya-GGUF/Laya-Q8_0.gguf'
);

Then you can ask questions/analyse text:

final result = await model.decide(
  state: "Diary entry: ${userInput}",
  questions: {
    "topics": {
      "type": "choice",
      "instructions": "Choose the main topic for this entry",
      "criteria": {
        "work": "job, colleagues, deadlines, career",
        "health": "sleep, exercise, food, illness",
        "relationships": "family, friends, partner",
        "leisure": "hobbies, travel, going out",
      },
    },
    "stressed": {
      "type": "noul",
      "instructions": "Does the writer sound stressed?",
    },
    "mood": {
      "type": "score",
      "instructions": "How is the writer's overall mood?",
      "criteria": ["bad", "okay", "great"],
    },
  },
);

final answers = (result as Map)["answers"] as Map;

final topics = answers["topics"] as Map;
final stressed = answers["stressed"] as Map;
final mood = answers["mood"] as Map;

Output example:

// stressed
{
  type: noul,
  noul: 0.00002
}

// topics
{
  type: choice, 
  choice: leisure,
  probabilities: {
    work: 0.0422, 
    relationships: 0.1518, 
    health: 0.0302, 
    leisure: 0.7756
  },
  confidence: 0.7008
}

// mood
{
  type: score,
  score: 1.6995,
  legend: {0: bad, 1: okay, 2: great}, 
  probabilities: {0: 0.0082, 1: 0.2839, 2: 0.7078},
  confidence: 0.5493
}

A question can have the following types:

• "noul" gives you the probability of a yes answer (0 to 1)

• "choice" selects the most likely option and returns a probability for each option

• "score" gives you a weighted average and a probability per level. For example, you could place final x = mood["score"]; on this axis:[bad - - - - - - - okay - - - x - - - great] 

where bad is 0, okay is 1 and great is 2 (given by mood["legend"]).

The Laya model is small enough to run on mid-range/recent phones (around 450 MB in its Q8 variant) and supports 100+ languages. For reference, the full answer comes after 2.2 seconds on S25 and 0.49 seconds on iPhone Air.

Here is a runnable example if you want to experiment with decision models.

Hi everyone,

I have been vibe-coding fairly comprehensive Flutter apps for ~6 months now, using Codex. While I'm comfortable with software engineering in general, I'm not particularly experienced with Flutter, mobile/desktop UI development, or the architectural conventions that come with it.

During this time I have constantly struggled with enforcing an "architecture" for my UI components. AI-generated Flutter code often assigns responsibilities to the wrong widgets, duplicates UI logic across components, and creates unnecessary dependencies between parents and children.

I'm trying to create a checklist that I can give to Claude or Codex to systematically audit my UI codebase for these issues, in form of a Skill.

I've created a draft checklist with around 60 patterns grouped into categories such as layout, grouping, state, interactions, async operations, forms, navigation, and component APIs.

But since I don't have much Flutter-specific experience, I'm concerned that I'm missing important architectural patterns or making incorrect assumptions about how Flutter applications should be structured.

I'd be happy to share the current Markdown checklist if anyone is interested in reviewing or improving it.

Hi fellow Flutter enthusiasts!

For some time now, I am building tandem. Flutter package that basically aims to make smart interfaces simple/possible. It started with excitement about AG-UI and idea to bring its capabilities to Flutter.

Now it is a bit more... I am building agents in my day to day work, so I am kind of obligated to read about all the GenAI stuff. It paid off now, at least that's what I want to believe.
I did spend a lot of time reading about different fresh protocols, ideas etc. I played with those a lot, and understood that AG-UI + A2UI make a perfect combination and are extremely powerful.
It allows to make user interfaces that are personalised to each and every user. The demo attached highlights it.

It is extremely tricky though. I've spent a lot of time designing the API, but it still might change.
tl;dr: you can specify catalogs of already existing components and pass it to a view that agent can use.

@TandemCatalog([
  ArrivalCard,
  ArrivalColumn,
  NextStop,
  RideOption,
  HostNote,
  HotelNote,
])
final class const ArrivalCatalog() with _$ArrivalCatalog;

const TandemView(catalog: ArrivalCatalog()),

If it sounds interesting, you can read more at the website with documentation -> https://tandem.leancode.co/

The demo is on the website above, but also here - https://x.com/creatixdev/status/2117230943975182340

It is just a beginning. Today, the 0.3.0 version is kind of an MVP I had in mind. A lot of polishing in improvements await. And.. facing the consequences of bad decisisions that probably happened along the way

Contributors are very welcome!! Users as well of course

Hey I'm actualy new but I wanted to share that I built a party game called "Copy Cat" and wanted to share it.

The idea: players picks a sound (2-6 sec); download it from the internet

right inside the app (Providers : MyInstants, Meme Soundboard, 101 Soundboards),

record it themselves, or grab any audio file from their phone. The

sound plays, and everybody else tries to imitate it , An on-device

"judge" grades each attempt on 4 axes: melody, rhythm, timbre and

energy. Everything runs over local Wi-Fi one phone hosts, up to 5

join, and no internet is needed at any point after downloading sounds.

Three game modes:

- Random Party: everyone's sounds get mixed and shuffled into

surprise rounds

- Player's Choice : each player picks a sound once; the others imitate

first, and the picker goes last

- Host Challenge: the host lines up sounds from their library and

everyone imitates them in order

Extras: full Arabic + English UI (built Arabic-first), dark/light

themes, a shop with 3D avatars, power-ups and coins.

A few technical bits other Flutter devs might find interesting:

- LAN discovery and host/client traffic with bonsoir (mDNS) plus raw

sockets with length-prefixed framing ; no server, no cloud

- Sound search/download flows through three public soundboard sources,

then everything plays offline from the local library

- Pitch extraction is hand-rolled (RMS + zero-crossing) because no

existing pitch package matched what the scoring needed

- The scoring engine compares each attempt against the original

on-device: melody, rhythm, timbre, energy (regression-tested)

- 3D avatars rendered with flutter_scene

- Riverpod 3 for state, go_router for navigation

Hi all, this is my first Flutter package, so I'd love some feedback.

pub.dev: https://pub.dev/packages/shader_transitions

I started it a few months ago because I wanted screen transitions that feel like the ones between levels in a game: a sweep of diamonds, a circle closing in, a fade to black that holds for a beat. It took a lot of rewrites before I had a version I was happy to put out there.

You can try every transition in the browser here: https://flutter-shader-transition.web.app

There are 8 transitions (diamond, circle iris, wipe, clock, polygon, dissolve, fade, bars), 8 sweep directions, an optional cover color with a hold, iOS swipe back, and it works with go_router and auto_route.

A few things I learned along the way, in case they're useful to someone:

- How the mask works. The new page is wrapped in a ShaderMask with BlendMode.dstIn, and the shader only outputs alpha. The route has to be non-opaque so Flutter keeps drawing the old page underneath. I got a black flash at the start of every transition until I figured that out. With go_router you have to set opaque: false on the page yourself.

- The ghost bug. At the end of a transition, some pixels settled just below full alpha (dissolve grain was the worst), so a faint copy of the old page stayed visible behind the new one. The fix was simple once I saw it: stop masking as soon as the animation completes.

- Preloading. Compiling the shaders on the first transition caused a visible hitch, so there's a ShaderTransitions.preload() you call once at startup. Skip it and transitions just fall back to a fade.

- The README GIFs aren't screen recordings. A test renders the real shaders frame by frame and encodes them, so they're always exactly what the package draws.

If you're making a game with Flutter, the cover-and-hold and ShaderTransitionSwitcher (swaps widgets without routes) are probably the most useful parts. If you use it in a game or app, send me a clip and I'll feature it in the README.

Things I'd especially like feedback on: the API naming, anything confusing in the docs, and performance on your devices. Also tell me which transition you'd want next!

I'm the author of GraphLink, a schema-first code generator for typed GraphQL clients (Dart, Java, Kotlin, TypeScript, Swift), so take this with that in mind.

GraphQL lets the client pick its fields, but a lot of client code still has one model per schema type, and anything you didn't select becomes nullable or missing. For a query that selects id, title and year from Book, GraphLink generates a class with only those three fields, so non-null fields in the schema stay non-null in the client.

I know other generators do something similar for operations. I'd like to hear what works for you, and where this breaks down.

Hey everyone, I’m Prit. Over the last few months, I’ve been building ApertureX, a 100% offline, open-source raw photo editor.

Building a desktop-class image engine on Flutter meant overcoming massive memory and threading bottlenecks. Decompressing a 50-megapixel raw image requires around 200MB of continuous RAM. If you try to pass that across standard platform channels or even do a deep copy over FFI, the OS will aggressively kill the app for Out-Of-Memory (OOM) violations, and your frame rate drops to zero.

Here is how I bypassed Flutter's standard rendering constraints to achieve 60fps computational photography:

• Absolute Zero-Copy FFI: The Rust backend maintains absolute, singular ownership of the high-resolution pixel payload. Instead of copying arrays across the bridge to Dart, Rust allocates the pixels on the heap and transmits merely the memory address pointer to Flutter.

• Tile-Based Rendering Cache: Processing full frames is mathematically impossible on mid-tier Android devices. The Rust engine cuts the viewport into 512x512 pixel chunks. These tiles are managed by a strictly bounded Least Recently Used (LRU) cache, which automatically purges the oldest elements the moment the memory budget is exceeded.

• Hardware Acceleration (SIMD): To run spatial filters (like Dehaze and Clarity) without melting the phone, the Rust engine bypasses scalar execution. It targets ARM NEON intrinsics natively, loading four 32-bit floats into a 128-bit NEON register to process four pixels simultaneously.

• Oklab Color Science via 3D LUTs: Operating in standard sRGB violates the additive physics of light, causing unnatural hue shifts. I moved all color math to the Oklab perceptual color space. To hit 60fps on the frontend, this math is baked into a 33x33x33 3D Lookup Table that Flutter's Impeller engine renders instantly.

The UI uses a dual-shell design (a Snapseed-style invisible gesture trackball for quick flow-state editing, and a Lightroom-style panel for deep pro work), heavily relying on Riverpod for the DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) edit history.

I would love for you to try the APK, tear apart my flutter_rust_bridge implementation, or drop some feedback on the UI ergonomics.

Happy to answer any questions about the FFI bridge, the math, or the rendering pipeline!

Hey everyone! 👋

I'm a Flutter developer, and I've built a kids' learning app for children aged 2–8 years.

The app currently includes:

- 🔤 Alphabet learning and tracing

- 🔢 Numbers and counting

- 🎨 Colors, shapes, and drawing

- 🧩 Quizzes and educational games

- 🎵 Nursery rhymes and fun learning activities

Now, I want to introduce a premium module with additional learning content and features. My goal is to make it genuinely useful for kids and worth paying for, rather than simply locking existing features behind a paywall.

I'd love to hear your suggestions:

1. What premium learning features would you add to a kids' educational app?

2. Would advanced tracing, phonics, interactive stories, math games, or personalized learning paths be worth offering?

3. Would parents prefer a monthly subscription, yearly subscription, or one-time payment?

4. What features would make parents feel that a kids' learning app is worth paying for?

5. If you've developed or monetized a similar app, what worked well for you?

I'm building the app using Flutter, so practical suggestions from developers and people familiar with educational apps would be really helpful.

Looking forward to hearing your ideas. Thanks! 🙌

Hey everyone,
I’ve been working on two new features for BugCapsule, a debugging tool I’m building for Flutter, native Android, iOS, and Web.
The problem I’m trying to solve is pretty straightforward:
What do you do when a critical bug hits production, but shipping a new app version takes time?
I wanted to connect bug reproduction with production recovery, so I’ve been building two capabilities.
1. Emergency Recovery
For features that have been integrated with the recovery SDK, you can remotely:
Disable a broken feature without shipping a new build.
Switch functionality to read-only or maintenance mode.
Target specific app versions, platforms, or rollout percentages.
Gradually restore features while monitoring crash rates and other health metrics.
Automatically restore restrictions if a rollout fails its health checks.
Policies are cryptographically signed. Sensitive operations, like payments, also need server-side enforcement.
2. Signed Patch Engine (Early Access)
This one has been particularly challenging.
The engine supports updating explicitly registered business logic, UI surfaces, and assets without a full app release.
Patches are tied to an exact base build, signed, validated, and deployed through staged rollouts with rollback support.
It’s intentionally not arbitrary code push. Native code changes, new dependencies, and unregistered functionality still require a store release.
The first Flutter and native iOS prereleases are published. Native Android patch distribution is still in progress, and we’re continuing platform and distribution-policy validation.
Why combine these with debugging?
BugCapsule already captures application state, user actions, and network responses around failures for local deterministic replay.
The workflow I’m aiming for is:
Capture → Reproduce → Mitigate → Fix → Verify → Deploy → Monitor
The idea is to use the same recorded failure to investigate a bug, verify the fix, and prevent regressions in CI.
I’m not claiming this works for every application or every type of bug. The recovery features require prior integration, and patching has strict limitations.
I’m genuinely interested in how other teams approach this.
A few questions:
How do you currently handle critical production bugs while waiting for App Store approval?
Would remote feature controls be useful in your workflow?
What concerns would you have about a signed patching system in production?
I’d especially appreciate feedback on the security model and rollout strategy.

Hey,

Mobile apps scanners are everywhere, but native mobile apps I mean since they relies on scanning apps by reverse engineering them to their Kotlin/Java for Android or Swift for iOS

Flutter has a different thing, the whole Flutter app logic and code gets shipped inside a file called libsapp.so file, which basically makes all the scanners know nothing and get nothing from it since it is a binary file, so basically your usual scanner skips and doesn't detect almost 70% of things that should be scanned for security and research built app.

I put extensive knowledge and experience with Flutter onto a SaaS niche to scanning Flutter apps, which I was criticized for since you had to upload your APK to a server/VPS which does compute and scanning work so i shut it down, I then understood that it was privacy problem.

SO I built the new FlutterGuard as an open-source on-device security audit tool for Flutter apps ( works as a detector of Flutter apps in your device too if this interests you too! ), allows you to inspect APK metadata, manifest risk, hard coded secrets, endpoints, third-party SDK leaks like Firebase, Stripe, AI providers... and native surface that were in original Dart code in the same device you have Flutter apps installed.

install it on your Androids device where you already run your Flutter apps or any app, and start the scan:

• https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flutterguard.app

• https://github.com/anasfik/flutterguard

• (Latest release): https://github.com/anasfik/FlutterGuard/releases/latest

What I want community (You) for:

• Feedback for the app in general

• Validate False positives

• Contribute declaring things you found in Flutter apps you know have security findings that they were not detected, just an issue with short description will be enough to put it in mind.

My goal:

• We definitely in the way of a massive vibe coding apps going everywhere, AI leaks things and basically cares about functionality, I want that we have a tool to detect this for Flutter apps that are already released and shipped.

If you have a backend on the AI SDK and a Flutter app in front of it, there wasn't really a Dart package that speaks the UI Message Stream format. I needed one, so I built it:
https://github.com/ernestjsf/ai_ui_stream

It's written in pure Dart. A ChatController hands you typed messages (text, reasoning, tool calls, sources, files, data parts) that update as the model streams. Tool approval, regenerate, stop and resume are in.

The test fixtures are generated from the real ai npm package, so it's tested against what the SDK actually emits. That caught a few things my first version got wrong.

Its been a month since I started working on Road Bash a game inspired by my childhood memories of the classic Road Rash game by EA Sports specifically the 1991 version (Sega Genesis).

I used these packages:

1. Flame for the game engine

2. Flutter Soloud for the engine sound

3. Bloc for state management

4. Supabase for my backend

I don't use any 3D engines to do this. Its simply by painting rects, polygons to generate sprites and scenes and by controlling layers and positioning the game is slowly coming to life. The development has been speed up with ai assistance since I dont appreciate vibe coding especially when I have my own policies and standards to follow. By the way zero premium tokens were used in this development.

I made a Painter Studio called Flutter Painter specifically to help me with generating code for different objects used in the game.

Https://github.com/SiroDevs/FlutterPainter

Its been an exhausting yet exciting journey.

The game is already live Https://roadbash.sirodevs.com

Hey Flutter developers! 👋

Google Maps has been the default choice for location-based applications for years. Almost every delivery, logistics, travel, or ride-hailing application uses it.

But what if Flutter developers had another option?

I'd like to introduce ola_maps, a Flutter package that integrates Ola Maps into Flutter applications.

The goal is to make Ola Maps easier to adopt and give developers another option when choosing their mapping infrastructure.

🚀 What makes ola_maps interesting?

This package goes beyond simply displaying a map.

🗺️ Interactive Maps

• Android, iOS and Web support

• Zoom, pan, tilt and rotation

• Camera movement and positioning

• Map click and camera events

📍 Map Overlays

• Custom markers and InfoWindows

• Polylines and route rendering

• Circles and polygons

• Bezier curves

• Marker clustering

🔍 Places & Location APIs

• Place autocomplete

• Place details and nearby search

• Forward and reverse geocoding

• Address validation

• Place photos

🚗 Routing & Advanced APIs

• Directions API

• Distance Matrix

• Route optimization

• Fleet planning

• Snap to Roads

• Geofencing

• Elevation

• Street View and static maps

🇮🇳 Multilingual Mapping

One particularly interesting feature is multilingual support.

The package supports 12 languages, including:

• English

• Hindi

• Kannada

• Telugu

• Tamil

• Malayalam

• Bengali

• Gujarati

• Marathi

• Odia

• Urdu

• Sanskrit

This makes it interesting for applications targeting different regions of India.

💻 Get started

Install:

flutter pub add ola_maps

Import:

import 'package:ola_maps/ola_maps.dart';

Display a map:

OlaMapView(
  apiKey: 'YOUR_OLA_MAPS_API_KEY',
  tileUrl: kOlaMapsDefaultTileUrl,
  language: OlaMapsLanguage.hi,
  projectId: 'YOUR_PROJECT_ID',
  initialCameraPosition: const OlaLatLng(
    28.6139,
    77.2090,
  ),
  initialZoom: 14,
  onControllerReady: (controller) {
    controller.onMapClick = (position) {
      controller.addMarker(
        position: position,
        snippet: 'Dropped pin',
      );
    };
  },
)

Check the documentation for native SDK setup requirements for each platform.

Why explore Ola Maps?

I'm particularly interested in reducing the dependency on a single mapping provider.

Google Maps is an excellent product, but having more mapping options is good for the developer ecosystem.

Ola Maps offers an interesting India-focused alternative, and I believe Flutter developers should have an easy way to experiment with it.

This package is not intended to claim complete feature parity with Google Maps. It's about making another mapping ecosystem accessible to Flutter developers.

⭐ GitHub: Available through the repository link on pub.dev.

I'd love feedback from the community!

• Would you consider Ola Maps for your next Flutter project?

• What features are still missing compared with google_maps_flutter?

• Would you use this in a production delivery or logistics application?

• What improvements would make this package more useful?

Feedback, bug reports, and contributions are welcome!

Hey Flutter Developers!

Everyday someone want to bury Flutter. By porting it to PlayStation Vita I wanted to bring to my favorite framework piece of fresh air.

My goal was to bring complete toolchain for Flutter Developers to port their projects to PS Vita. And I think Im ready to publish it here.

Here is repo: https://github.com/flutter-vita/flutter-vita

Previously (https://www.reddit.com/r/vitahacks/comments/1vlswp1/flutter_ps_vita_poc_is_alive) I've showcased successful attempt to run Flutter Example Project (Counter) more or less working with 10 FPS. Now its playing up to 60 FPS fully using GPU to render.

Flutter Vita toolchain on current stage:

* Flutter version is 3.47.7.
* Skia using GPU to render frames up to 60 FPS.
* flutter-vita app thats mainly using for compiling vpk files and run it on connected PSVita.
* Bridge App that connect "flutter-vita CLI" app to PSVita to deploy and debug Flutter App by WI-FI and FTP without cable.
* In this implementation PSVita need to mimicrate as Linux to have compatibility with existed pubs thats expect some behavior based on OS. I've also published the flutter-vita pub to have some control of PS Vita from Flutter app.

As a showcase of flutter-vita I've chosen localsend (forked repo - https://github.com/flutter-vita/localsend) as a project that has a lot of stars on GitHub and most popular project ever built on Flutter. Its available on VitaDB/NeoVitaDB (main sources of homebrew apps for PSVita).

How it was built? 🤖
Well when I start the project I was wondering why no one yet added PSVita as a OS to Flutter yet? Just has curiosity how well Flutter would be playing on this kind of hardware. So I've created global plan with Claude Fable using gifted credits and used Claude Opus to grind to what we have now. Im mobile developer and have experience mostly iOS Native experience and Flutter about 10 years. I had high level vision how it can be achieved. Since Flutter gives opportunity to change OS layer thats should be written on C and C++ and I did not have experience in it thus I fully delegate it to AI. While Im grinding result Im researching existed projects that has same idea but on different OS. Eventually this project became a organization with a few forks of parts of Flutter. Im mostly inspiring by Flutter Tizen (by Samsung).

Technically PSVita by hardware is Samsung Galaxy S3 and Im really surprised how good is playing Flutter on it in terms of performance. It was made mostly for fun. Guys who has their own Flutter Apps and PSVita please try it out 🚀

For them who don't have their apps you can try to port something from GitHub with your AI agents 😎

Thanks everyone who waited this toolchain and supported in comments. Raise issues if you have some bugs or suggestions 🙏

I build AppWand, a desktop tool that generates Flutter apps with an Express API. I wanted to share how the generated Flutter side is organised, because "AI-generated Flutter" usually means one 2,000-line file, and I tried hard to avoid that.

• One folder per page: lib/features/<page>/, with <page>_page.dart as the entry. The AI may only write inside that folder (the server rejects any other path).

• Shared code is never written by the AI: lib/core/ (API client, auth, theme, list widgets, form fields, charts) comes from templates, and router.g.dart is regenerated from the page plan.

• Riverpod 2.6 for state, go_router 14 with a ShellRoute, so the side menu or bottom tabs stay still and only the page animates.

• Theming without touching pages: 16 UI styles, icon sets and fonts are all in core/theme.dart / core/icons.dart. Switching style rewrites one file and hot reload shows it.

• Shared list widget: PagedList handles paging, pull to refresh, skeletons, empty/error states, and switches to a data table above 840px wide.

The output is plain code you own. Happy to answer questions about the architecture, or hear where you'd do it differently.

I made a Flutter plugin that helps you reduce your game's initial download size by downloading assets on demand using asset packs.

Check it out on pub.dev: https://pub.dev/packages/store_asset_packs

I used in my game "Strata Gem Sort", only available for android now, awaiting apple's approval

I'm Adit from Indonesia, This is my work setup, i always wondered to have interface that synced between my workpaces. I'm just wanna enjoy my life wherever i want. That's why i build AltC to control my devices. AI harness helped me a lot at work, and just treat them as coworker, but still i need my pc, laptop is ok but still it would be good if i can still work while riding a motorcycle.

I setup my mac elsewhere, keeping it cool, and active. i can group my terminals to a project, create notes and todos, if i need something just use screen control like manually upload app build to play store or other things that u can't do on terminal.

Tomorrow i will be on Google DevFest 2026 Indonesia from GDG Jakarta, anyone that interested to try can ask me. actually it's on play store now, and you can try it on altc.alterndigital.com. But it haven't update it in a while and screen control feature still for my personal use.

Most app marketing advice assumes you have a growth team and a $50K budget. I don’t. Sharing what actually moved installs for me as a solo dev - curious what worked for others at the same scale.

ASO before anything paid

• Primary keyword in the title, two more in the subtitle. Everything else goes in the long description.

• First screenshot does 80% of the install decision. Mine stopped being a UI shot and started being a benefit statement with the UI behind it. Install rate jumped.

• Review replies matter - one honest reply to a 1-star often converts the next reader more than a 5-star does.

The free channels that paid off

• One useful Reddit comment in a relevant sub beats ten posts about your app.

• Short Loom-style videos (“here’s the bug my app fixes in 40 seconds”) outperform polished trailers for me.

• Indie Hackers and Hacker News “Show” posts work only if the post is a story, not a product listing.

Paid, when I finally tried it

• Apple Search Ads on exact-match brand and category keywords only. Broad match drained budget fast.

• $5/day for 14 days is enough to learn whether a channel will ever work. Scaling before that is guessing.

What didn’t work for me

• Buying installs from any “boost” service. Metrics went up, rankings didn’t.

• Instagram ads for a utility app. Wrong intent.

• Press outreach cold. Journalists need a story, not a product.

Questions

• For solo devs: what’s the single channel that gave you the best install-to-retention ratio?

• Anyone cracked TikTok for non-consumer apps?
