Working with #flutter and #dart, and an annoyance is the linter complaining that some things should be marked const.
Yes, linter, you're absolutely correct about that. But if you can figure that out, why the hell doesn't the compiler do it automagically as an optimisation step?
If there is a good reason why the compiler can't do that, I'd love to hear it.
I've changed my mind about #Redux. It does have it's use cases, especially with persist and sync capability, which is exactly what is needed for stuff like a shopping cart, or my next spur of the moment project :ablobcatreachflip: .
Is there a demand for a #TweetDeck replacement for #Mastodon and #Bluesky together? I've been looking at the competition on Bsky, and somehow they really like #Flutter? I checked flutter again, and the plugin options seem to have not made much progress over the last few years. Lots of quirks in the UI that STILL haven't been fixed.
I was thinking of building a single page app and hosting it on cloudflare pages and using Redux sync to do nonsense like multi-screen, multi-account, multi-tab columns of posts. And maybe I could make it... an Electron app.
My #ampache music player using #flutter is somewhat done!
It can fetch playlists, read music, integrate with #Android to use the media notification.
That's all I wanted for a first version, which is perfect! @ampache isn't it beautiful
I am happy to try LLMs that run locally in my IDE. I never want to stream all my data to OpenAI or any other service's data vacuum as I code. Which leads me to ask which of the two categories do these plugins fall into, JetBrains? I'm disabling them because they aren't doing squat for this Dart/Flutter developer anyway right now but I'm not going to activate them until I'm certain they aren't streaming every flipping keystroke back to the usual suspects. I'd say state explicitly in the overview whether it runs local or does network stuff or even better have a setting to disable all network traffic of this sort across the board since plugin manufacturers could be up to similar things. Hell maybe I need a firewall rule to block outgoing network traffic from the IDE, assuming I could do that without breaking all the local network traffic needed to connect to apps, emulators, etc. for debugging... #JetBrains#JetBrainsAI#OpenAI#ML#AI#DartLang#flutter
I was just sitting here browsing social media, and I had a thought. I wish #Flutter could use the Material theme while on Android and PC, and the Cupertino widgets while on #macOS and #iOS
Reason: Material Design is just not my favorite UI scheme.
It looks like slowly native android development will be reserved for more advanced apps (apps that needs to do more than asking for API call to get and show the data).
I’ve had the itch to create an app that addresses a very specific hobby need I have.
While it definitely could be a PWA app — I’ve got zero interest in paying for hosting, domains, etc.
I own only an iPhone and iPad, but I’ve decided to use #Flutter. My initial impression is that it and #Dart borrow heavily from other popular programming languages and app platforms. I don’t mind that at all. It feels familiar and fresh. #Wpf, #ReactJs, #Swift, #SwiftUI, #TypeScript
I present the first named release of the Friendica mobile/desktop client: Relatica. It is still very much a work in progress but I'm going to start opening it up for beta usage (early beta). For iOS that will mean me letting up to 100 people into the inside testing team (Apple's limit). For the other platforms I'll be posting binaries/packages/install instructions for Android, Linux, macOS, and Windows in the coming days as well. I also setup a Relatica Matrix room for interactive discussions with me and other users. The README on the GitLab repo will have all those sorts of details. Enjoy! #friendica#FriendicaDev#relatica#flutter#DartLang#fediversegitlab.com/mysocialportal/rela…
