airdash VS budgetme

I've only built small apps such as airdash, but always felt that the state management libraries such as Provider felt overly complex. Once I learnt about how to use ValueNotifier & ValueListenableBuilder I have started using it instead and will not look at libraries again until I ran into I find myself writing a bunch of boilerplate etc.

Sounds great! I made Airdash, a file sharing app that enables the easiest way to get a file from one device to another. Personally use it for getting screenshots from an android device to my Mac.

I created Airdash in flutter (a simple desktop and mobile app for sharing files with any device). It worked pretty well and would definitely do it again for simple desktop apps that also has a mobile component. Heck I would even use it for desktop only apps if I needed support for anything else than macOS. Can't comment on the web experience, but I would personally not hesitate on trying it as long as I didn't need SEO support.

While waiting for official windows support for firestore I decided to use firedart in AirDash for some simple things

The file sharing app AirDash uses flutter_webrtc to send files. Note that it only uses data channels so no camera or media integration. It uses Firestore for signaling. For a simpler example although less complete you can look at the simple_peer library as well. It also only supports data channels right now however.

Thanks. Yeah, likely going to be a lot of edge cases when doing cross platform bluetooth. For now I've been able to discover and send some small data packets to nearby devices on iOS/macOS (as can be seen in this playground). Fortunately my use case is only transmitting device name and id. I'm thinking of using this as a way to pair nearby devices more easily in Airdash.

There is examples of how to use the Play Store API, Apple App Store API and Microsoft Store API here if you are interested https://github.com/simonbengtsson/airdash/tree/main/tools.

Or you can of course also test by manually installing the apk from the latest release available here: https://github.com/simonbengtsson/airdash/releases/tag/v2.0.130

Created a free and open source file sharing app.

Hey Mitch. I recently released my app BudgetMe on the App Store and Play Store. It's a budgeting app to help you save money towards a goal. I spent a pretty good amount of time on the UI design of it and was easy bring it over from Figma to Flutter. There are in app purchases as well as ads. The in app purchase will let you create unlimited goals and remove ads for $2.99. Would appreciate the feature. I'm just high schooler btw, anything helps :)
