flutter_platform_widgets VS Visual Studio Code

Full control of rendering. Optimizes for consistent UI cross-platform, at expense of platform-specific capabilities and look-and-feel (that users on each platform might be more familiar with). But has Cupertino widgets for iOS look-and-feel, to alleviate that. (Android uses Material UI widgets). Could also use flutter_platform_widgets that automatically selects the UI widget's look-and-feel according to the mobile platform (iOS or Android).

OP here!

It wasn't that hard to handle the conditional logic for the UI components. It can also be encapsulated in a separate package, something that is already available for Flutter on mobile (iOS and Android UI): https://github.com/stryder-dev/flutter_platform_widgets

I could also not strive to make it look native, but go with the default UI (Google's Material UI). As I explained in the post, I decided to take some extra steps and use the two UI packages (macos_ui and fluent_ui), to make it adapt to the platform.

Please bear in mind that I am a single developer, with ~1 year of working with Flutter and Dart, and my main background is web development. I think that teams with more members and experience can certainly do this for even larger in scope apps.

Hey fellow amazing developers, we got you Essential VS Code Extensions for 2024 (these are especially important for web developers) recommended by our developers at evotik, we wont talk about ESlint nor Prettier which all of you already know.

Visual Studio Code (VS Code): Developed by Microsoft, VS Code is a lightweight yet powerful IDE with extensive support for Python development through extensions. It offers features like IntelliSense, debugging, and built-in Git integration.

In VSCode for example this can be easily done by adding the following .vscode/launch.json file:

I had a near-identical experience. I looked into switching in 2019 and ran into this 2016 bug which was a showstopper for me. Fixed it myself, grand total 4 line diff. https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/10643

When working in Visual Studio Code (VS Code), always create a new Python file for your project.

Code Editor: Choose a code editor like Visual Studio Code that offers good support for web technologies and extensions for PWA development.

When working in Visual Studio Code (VS Code), create a new Python file for our music player project. It's helpful to have separate files for different parts of your project.

Choosing IDE: Selecting a suitable Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is crucial for efficient coding. Consider popular options such as PyCharm, Visual Studio Code, or Jupyter Notebook. Install your preferred IDE and ensure it's configured to work with Python.

I was doing it all wrong, designing and developing on the fly, using the same tool - VScode; Making one step forward and ten back when I mess up with good code while trying to get rid of the bad. I had gotten away with it for three pages, but it had finally caught up with me.
