Getting Started

General 'random' Project errors

Change the minSdkVersion in flutter-directory/packages/flutter_tools/gradle/flutter.gradle to 23 every time there is an update.
If intl throws an error about not being able to find a package, generate with flutter gen-l10n .

Flutter Version Manager (FVM)

Inspiration

To containerize the setup of a flutter project, as much as possible, without involving actual Docker.

Setup

• Overview
• Install a standalone (since it is to be used globally)
• Install the Sidekick GUI for your platform. Use that to download, install and manage versions
• Opening a project should create/read(in case already existing) the .fvm folder with versioning
• Point the Flutter SDK location (per your IDE-specific settings) to the symlink(shortcut) inside the flutter_sdk folder.
• Create the aliases for short-circuiting fvm [flutter|dart] <...> to just [flutter|dart] <...>
  • For Linux, just an alias
  • For Windows/Powershell, download my profile from my Github .

FVM error

If a simple flutter command fails with a git not found in your PATH due to the new fvm, do the following:

1. Check if you have git installed properly, with git --version
2. Skip the git check in flutter a) Go to 'flutter_sdk/bin/internal/shared.bat' b) Find a line where something like SET git_exists=false is used (~line 56) and set it to true.
3. Confirm that that flutter command works

Errors while building Pods (iOS + MacOS)

1. Usually resolvable by deleting the Podfile.lock.
2. For CDN-trunk out-of-date-error, try updating the precompiled Firestore SDK (Check the comments in Podfile, under 'targets' section).
