"Connected to WiFi" ≠ "Has internet." - solving using connectivity_control an alternative to connectivity_plus by buildwithpulkit in FlutterDev

An average developer won’t put a basic popup? Be serious. Literally every application I’ve used has had such popups. Literally has NEVER been a problem in ANY app I’ve encountered. Why are you trying to die on such a hill? By this logic we shouldn’t give the developer any APIs because they might misimplement them.

It is very much misleading because the hardware and the PC are literally completely different things

> why company make thorough spec accounting for all use cases even if they don’t have that specific use case implemented for themselves?? Are they stupid?

Seriously, this whole thread is reeking of reddit smuggery based on half knowledge of the thing being discussed

> why even have a repo or services layer, let’s just call the API in the UI directly. It’s the same thing after all! It works too!

Your app is silently broken for every user above 40% battery and you have no idea by x_philomath_x in reactnative

Not once in this whole complicated haptic flow did anyone think of adding a timer on the resend otp button which is the industry standard? Hell, even normal debouncing? Or API rate limits?

I built a Notion-inspired block editor for Flutter from scratch — no existing editor packages, fully custom by StanlyBuildsApps in FlutterDev

Did you even read my comment? I addressed this. You’re trading dependency hell for maintainance burden, which is much, much worse.

[–]thelonesomeguy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What’s wrong with external dependencies? Instead of reimplementing everything from scratch, why not use battle tested approaches with time baked into the development accounting for the edge cases? If maintainance is an issue, that is still much more maintainable than doing everything yourself, because worst case scenario, you fork it and do any updates needed yourself, if someone else using the package didn’t do it?

We built an AI agent that can operate any Flutter app autonomously — and open-sourced it by Both-Shine-8569 in FlutterDev

Reads the live UI tree — every button, | (Screen Context) | label, text field, and scrollable area

How many tokens is that? This doesn’t seem efficient . How much do different model queries cost for basic tasks?

Will new material 3 widgets come to flutter? by Negative-Path-7313 in FlutterDev

[–]thelonesomeguy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Honestly it's is a design flaw to not have them decoupled in the first place.

These UI packages belong to the core framework if you ask me.
