Firebase Auth/CloudStore support for DartPad
Earlier today on the Firebase Summit keynote, they mentioned that <dartpad.dev> now supports firebase_auth und cloud_firestore. I'm not sure whether this is useful beyond simple examples but still, it's nice, and perhaps more packages (like provider etc.) will be supported in the future.https://twitter.com/FlutterDev/status/1458497358270844931

Some observations about the Flutter router and opening nested routes on the web. onGenerateRoute is called multiple times.
TLDRI request an initial route of /home/1/2/3/4/5 , but onGenerateRoute is called 7 times, 7 states are allocated and 7 widgets are built. One is expected for each.Solution: Use onGenerateInitialRoutes to override the default behavior.Deep Dive:I'm going to share what I've learned out of my own research when facing this issue.When opening a deep link, the flutter router recreates all the prior router/history states of the app.This means that the back button can return the user trough all the screens needed to get there even if it got there via deep linking.This behavior makes sense for mobile devices. However, on the web, this behavior is not wanted.If we load a deep link such as: http://domain/s/lorem-ipsum/all/posts we end up initialising each route level if it has it's own screen definedIf you happen to have the same component on all levels this in turn leads to 5 sets of duplicated API calls which is completely unacceptableTherefore we can use onGenerateInitialRoutes to prevent this behavior from occurring.The default history stack is overridden with a router/history stack with just one statemain.dart

... return MaterialApp( ... initialRoute: user != null ? '/' : '/login', // The default history stack is overridden with a router/history stack with just one state // In this case I used fluro but any other onGenerateRoute method will do the trick onGenerateInitialRoutes: (initialRoute) => [appRouter.generator(RouteSettings(name: initialRoute))!], onGenerateRoute: appRouter.generator, ); 

router.dart

final appRouter = FluroRouter(); void defineAppRoutes() { final routes = { // Auth '/login': LoginPage(), '/register': RegisterPage(), // Pages '/': MainFeed(), '/s': MainFeed(), '/s/:spaceId': MainFeed(), '/s/:spaceId/:activityId': MainFeed(), '/s/:spaceId/:activityId/posts': MainFeed(), ... many more such routes }; routes.forEach((route, page) { appRouter.define(route, handler: Handler( handlerFunc: (BuildContext? context, Map<String, List<String>> params) => page, )); }); // Not found appRouter.notFoundHandler = Handler( handlerFunc: (BuildContext? context, Map<String, dynamic> params) { return NotFoundPage(); }); } 

Performance/Billing concernsSome of you might be using Firebase and possibly planning to run an app with high volumes of traffic. Therefore it is quite important to pay attention to what your router does. You might be sending requests for more data than what you actually need to load for your first view of the app. Especially for sharing links on the web this might be costly if you don't optimize your API calls. Since Firebase does everything via websockets make sure you either place print statements in all your API calls or you can also switch to json-server during development to get a better view of the HTTP calls in the developer tools. There are many ways to handle this optimisation. What matters first of all is to be aware of your API calls and how many. I was able to generate 15K api calls with 3-4 work hours using an unoptimised version of my app.Final NotesinitState will be called as many route segments as you have unless you override onGenerateInitialRoutesbuild is called as many times as flutter thinks there's a change event. As long as you don't do any complex logic or any API calls during the build stage it's not that bad. Similar to React or Angular the change detection algo makes sure that if duplicate builds happen only the relevant changes are computed.I'm still learning some of this stuff so please excuse me if I used some wrong terms. Let me know how can I improve this post or if got something completely wrong. Hopefully it helps you.

Does anyone have any good example apps of arobust app architecture using ChangeNotifier + Provider?I am looking for complete app examples that go much further than just the counter example.

Smart/Dump components, Functions and\or Providers
I'm a long term developer who just got into Flutter for a side project I'm working on. I've made a ton of progress with an app that a customer is ordering, but I'm kinda struggling with what should hold my application logic ie. executes a series of steps to maintain state for better user experience. Do note that I'm not talking about business logic. That resides somewhere else.I'm curious to know what is your preferred method of working in regards to what block in your Flutter app is the smart one? Is it the components, the provider or some other class\function. I'd love to have some reading material in regards to this. An example:Let's assume you're working on an app that needs to connect to some other device via a WebSocket connection. So you have a button that when pressed initiates the connection. You also have to let the user know that now you have a connection (flip button from red to green). You also have a requirement to auto connect to that device when the app starts, if it was previously connected to. So that means holding information about having to auto-connect or not, somewhere in a local database of sorts, let's say SQLite or Hive.So, what is your preferred solution here?Do you have your component do the connecting, putting that connection in a Provider and putting that connection information (like a device ID or smth) into a local database for auto-connect, ie. your component holds all the cards like WebSocket, Provider and SQLite or Hive?Does your component call a Provider to do all of that stuff for you and the component just listens to changes there and maybe flips a "Connect" button to "Disconnect"Do you create a class or a function that holds application logic and handles orchestration (as small as it is?)Do you just put that stuff all over the place and pull out your hair trying to find it later on.

Tip: How to avoid badly cropped rounded avatars: round your animation values
I've been noticing that in certain cases the avatars of my app tend to be slightly cropped. Although I made sure that all dimensions match from PSD to Widget sometimes this crop shows up. After brainstorming a bit I've figured out that this is due to the animation that I apply to this particular sidebar (Container). Due to the way the numbers are computed the final animation ends up in a state where the position includes a decimal value. This slight missalignment is enough to trick the the image rastering algo to "skip a row of pixels". That is just enough to make the avatar look clipped. The solution was to round the final value thus eliminating the subpixel missalignment.Here's a little demo image to compare the results: https://imgur.com/a/ZfOdjvO
