freezed VS Flutter

Freezed Package: Add the Freezed package to simplify data class creation and immutable state management.

Incorporating Riverpod with Freezed for Immutable State Management: To leverage Riverpod alongside Freezed in your Flutter project for even more robust state management, you'll be enhancing components like GoalNotifier to efficiently handle immutable state. Freezed complements Riverpod by enabling the use of immutable objects in Dart, which aids in making your state management more predictable and safer.

There is the `sealed` class modifier which allows for exhaustive matching on possible types: https://dart.dev/language/class-modifiers#sealed

There's also a package called freezed which offers similar utility (you might already be familiar with this seeing as you mentioned pattern matching): https://pub.dev/packages/freezed

I recall there being a reason unions aren't generally implemented, though I'm not sure where I read it. It was to do with union types being unnecessarily complex for the compiler and the code they tend to produce, at no real benefit to the programmer or the resulting program. Go's lack of unions is essentially based around the same reasoning.

Interesting. May I ask how this differs from something like Freezed https://pub.dev/packages/freezed and its from/ToJson features ? I haven't used it yet, but I'm just curious about the concept and use of these sort of packages.

The official site does show what you can use it for but to explain a bit more, it helps you work faster.

One rather minor suggestion: it took me a while to understand exactly what the benefits were, but the example shown on this page of the docs summarized it well. I would suggest showing an example like that at the top of the main Readme and first page of the site, before or right after the motivation section, similar to how Freezed immediately shows its value proposition.

Read more on what you can do with Freezed.

freezed on pub.dev

We use freezed for our models, and then use withConverter in the firestore SDK to easily translate between firestore and our models... however we run into issues with concurrent updates to documents.

Once the package has been created, we will install freezed for JSON serialization and value equality , as this library provides helpful tools for these tasks. We will use json_serializable for JSON serialization. To install freezed and freezed_annotation, open your terminal inside the models package and use the command:

I don't agree but if you're looking for something that renderers everything in a canvas it's called Flutter https://flutter.dev/, and strangely it's made by Google, even though Flutter's success means the end of scraping the web for search.

In Part 3, we'll learn how to build the frontend with Flutter and consume the APIs to implement a functional YouTube clone application. Before we move futher, let's look at the folder structure for the Flutter app we'll be building:

There's likely things we missed but we'd love to find examples you might have. We try to be scientific as much as we can https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/122275 [coincidentally a community contribution from someone who didn't have to fork :)]

Disclaimer: used to work on some of these animations

> I'd rather we just move to native cross platform applications and stop using a document browser to build interactive applications

Here you go. Do both native and wasm:

If JAVA_HOME isn't defined, Flutter looks for any java executable in your path. Once issue 122609 lands, the flutter doctor command reports which version of Java is used

Flutter SDK installed.

Btw, if using Android Studio preview, Flutter won’t be able to capture version numbers. That’s normal. (See https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/140575)
