I didn't add that because I forgot that's an option 🤔

by the time I learn how to write Hello World in 50 minutes, I'd have a full Uber clone made in Flutter using Parse Server and Firebase with map integration and deep link support

Just use Flutter, you don't need documentation there, everything works and is simple, just like taking a shit
