[Official] Dio is no longer being maintained.
With no release in the last 6 months, piling up of issues and launch of a new fork (diox), I felt something was going on with dio. Sadly, today I came across an official announcement (updated on the project repo 2 days back):

Dio caching experience
You might want to think twice about dio....we evaluated dio on a recent project and decided to avoid it after running into a blocker when setting a custom timeout (this bug: https://github.com/flutterchina/dio/issues/1454)
- Dio, maintaining session
- NO_RENEGOTIATION error when trying to do HTTPS

GetX is dead, what to use next?

Thoughts on creating a library with Dart for browser and node
I also had some troubles choosing which Dart HTTP client to use. I've started with dio, but when I tried to read one of our bigger JSON responses (~1.5mb) my browser tab froze (there seems to be an old issue describing the same behavior). After that I've switched to the default dart's http package and it is working fine but it doesn't have builtin requests abort/cancellation.

Surrounded by flutter state managements
Vs Code has this extension, that can generate all boilerplate code that you need, and everything about bloc has been documented right here. Take a day or two, to familiarize yourself with the examples.

I'm very proud to announce the first developer preview of solidart 1.0.0 ✨. Check the CHANGELOG. The developer experience improved a lot 🚀
Looks solid, congrats! This is probably a huge ask but, flutter_bloc has this repository of examples covering almost every imaginable use case. Would be really great to have something similar. Check it out > https://github.com/felangel/bloc/tree/master/examples

🎉 Introducing MODDDELS: A Powerful Package for Robust, Self-Validated Models in Flutter & Dart
From this issue on the bloc package :
What are some alternatives?
When comparing dio and bloc you can also consider the following projects:
getx - Open screens/snackbars/dialogs/bottomSheets without context, manage states and inject dependencies easily with Get.
riverpod - A reactive caching and data-binding framework. Riverpod makes working with asynchronous code a breeze.
sentry-dart - Sentry SDK for Dart and Flutter
cubit - Cubit is a lightweight state management solution. It is a subset of the bloc package that does not rely on events and instead uses methods to emit new states.
esc_pos_printer - ESC/POS (thermal, receipt) printing for Flutter & Dart
get_it - Get It - Simple direct Service Locator that allows to decouple the interface from a concrete implementation and to access the concrete implementation from everywhere in your App. Maintainer: @escamoteur
