Anyone had success with GPS running in the background?
I've made a small run/hike tracker using the geolocator packageIt works great... If the screen is on of course... I've tried a bit of everything to make it work on the background: Using packages such as background_locator and flutter_isolate Implementing my own isolate and some other quirky things... But I still haven't manage to solve this reliabiliy.The most successful run I had was using the background_locator package but then I had problems with getting the data: - Storing it to data files corrupted the data after at while - Using Hive started promising but got into weird errors.I am trying to avoid firebase because I'd like to avoid the 3G costs and low coverage... I haven't tried sqlflite yet...I think some of the problems might be due to my lack of experience with isolates (which I am hating the fact with the whole static callback) or simply mistakes which I didn't catch... In any case I am getting really frustrated at how this is handled and my inability to solve this so I am reaching out to the community to see if someone actually managed to make it work so we can exchange some experiences.Anything would be helpful...even a PM/DMCheers

vscode quick fix improvements
I'm trying to get a fix for vscode quick fixes.Essentially, you can click the light bulb in the problems area of vscode to see the set of quick fix options.The problem is that you have to wait for the bulb to appear before you can click to see the quick fix list.If you are working through a lot of quick fixes this small delay is particularly annoying.If you also find this annoying then voting on the issue will help the vscode team understand that these sort of paper cuts can be as important as some of the big ticket items.If you want to support this issue then you can vote here:https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/98618​If you really don't care, then apologises for interrupting your reading :)

more autocomplete!
don't you guys think that Flutter should do this automatically for many parameter that only accept one object, i mean the only thing you can pass to TextStyle style is a TextStyle() object so why should we type TextStyle() manually so on for decoration parameter in TextField, and many more.https://i.imgur.com/cbceEyA.gifv

Flutter Packages We Use In Every App - CitrusLeaf | Blog
DioDio is our goto HTTP client package for Flutter. The standard HTTP package is excellent, but it leaves a lot to be desired. With a very stable API, it includes things like Interceptors, Global configuration, FormData, Request Cancellation, File downloading, Timeout, etc.All of the added features in Dio makes doing HTTP calls a breeze. For example, using interceptors, we achieve mock testing of APIs while global configuration helps in quickly changing the environment from testing to production.shared_preferencesAlmost every mobile application needs to have some data caching and offline saving mechanism. We use the shared_preferences package to achieve such functionality when doing Flutter app development.This package wraps NSUserDefaults (on iOS) and SharedPreferences (on Android), providing a clean and straightforward API to persist user data in a Flutter app. It is highly recommended for caching non-relational data offline

Flutter MainAxisSize: Max vs Min
SummaryWhen you use MainAxisSize on your Column or Row, they will determine the size of the Column or Row along the main axis, i.e, height for Column and width for Row.We will look at few examples and see what the resulting size of main axis would be if we use MainAxisSize.max and MainAxisSize.minhttps://medium.com/@sid.310/flutter-mainaxissize-max-vs-min-d9095d8f7914

How many of you guys would be interested in a plugin for https://enhance.co ?
I’m talking with the guys over there, as I’d really like to use it for ads implementation with flutter. If you don’t know what they do, they allow to implement many different ad networks, analytics and other tools with a few lines of code, with injection of sdks after the app is built. I used them with Unity and Construct 3, and it was quite cool to do changes on the fly without touching the code every time.They asked me if i knew other people interested, so I’m creating this poll.Just FYI, I’m not connected nor working with them at all, is just something that has proven useful to me in the past and I’d like to use it in flutter.View Poll
