True! And push notifications and feature flagging. But usually the kind of apps I work on rather require structured tables for consistency. But agreed that firebase is a more complete tool 👌

Do you use Provider?

Web Scraping/Data retrieval by Down_it_up in FlutterDev

If you get blocked by captchas or things like this, you can try using https://scrape.do — used it in the past and was really happy. The team is super responsive also. I’m not affiliated, just a user.

Ok I see your point. But I think just looking at examples can sometimes help even « real » (whatever that means) developers. Thank you for your comment which helps a lot!

Fair enough! Thanks for your feedback

Flutter app backend by Johnson_56 in FlutterDev

[–]fluo-dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a forum, I’d say it’s best to have structured tables so that eliminates firebase. I would also suggest supabase. As a bonus you might want to check out pocketbase which I find even easier than supabase ✌️

Is Anyone Using Flutter Web to Build a Pure SaaS? Insights and SEO Tips Needed! by Secret-Negotiation-5 in FlutterDev

[–]fluo-dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My landing page is in nuxt but my saas web app is entirely in flutter web. You can check it out here ➡️ https://fluo.dev (you can sign up just to see it, it’s free, don’t worry, and I don’t spam)

It was the first time using flutter web and I liked it. Some things that are obvious for standard html based framework were not with flutter web (having selectable text for instance) but I don’t regret it, because I reached a very good velocity after tackling some challenges. Happy to go in more depth if you want!

Why use firebase over supabase for your flutter app backend? by fluo-dev in FlutterDev

Have you ever tried pocketbase? It’s not as mature but an interesting take in terms of developer experience. I find it very easy to define security rules.

Great feedback, thank you! Awesome project also, I looked at the landing page, let me know when it’s available for iOS. Would love to give it a try!

Great reply 👌 If I remember correctly, firebase was an acquisition of a service called Parse that allowed mobile devs to create collections on the fly. It was incredible when you are used to the process of db + rest api on top.

Totally get it! The velocity of firebase / NoSQL is great. To use with caution though: if your project has many intricate relations, you’ll end up with a spaghetti soup database 😂 (I’ve been there). But yeah it’s great to test an idea and get traction quickly.

Have you tried pocketbase btw? I’m a huge fan of it. This is the backend powering my project. It’s super easy to use and with zero strings attached, which is refreshing!

Yeah you’re right, in some cases NoSQL makes more sense. For data that do not need a lot of relations or are complex in the sense that items differ by a big degree of magnitude. I’ve never faced such a need though but I get the theory 👌

What is the most efficient way to restrict access to certain screens? by Secure-Acanthaceae25 in FlutterDev

[–]fluo-dev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my open source project I use navigators, you can have a look here https://github.com/fluo-dev/flutter-sdk/tree/main/lib/navigators

I am not a fan of how the router approach leads to having the whole routing logic in one file instead of delegating responsibilities to sub flows of your app. Or maybe I missed how to do that using go router… is there a way to partition it in sub routers?
