Flutter's pure state management
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.

How do you transfer file quickly and "wireless" from phone (could be Android or iPhone) to your windows laptop/pc? I often use snapdrop and sometime it really takes ages to send one small file

If you have a dope well made flutter app, I'll help promote it on my youtube channel (29K+ subs) ❤️
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.

New to Flutter. Wondering where the OS and Web integration stands right now
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

Looking for a WebRTC solution for Flutter
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.

Creating a library for finding nearby devices using Bluetooth
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.

The Rise and Fall of 3M's Floppy Disk
I agree and get your point.
But localsend has worked well for me. Yes, it requires an app but if we could get vendors to bundle that rather than a boatload of bloatware.
I know that it would be to optimistic to hope for Google.

Use local send to send files and folders.

iPhone Copy to PC Shortcut
Edit: This is very simple implementation, even a POC, for personal use between our own devices at home or other personal private network. Even works on hotspot. But no HTTPS, so don's use on non-private networks. LocalSend, as suggested by u/Fede777 seems to be better for every other use.
