Why is context safe to be used inside didChangeDependencies() method but not inside the initState() method?

Both the initState() method and didChangeDependencies() are executed before the build() method of a state object, so why is the context not available inside initState() but available inside didChangeDependencies()? According to the official docs, didChangeDependencies() is called whenever the... https://www.reddit.com/r/FlutterDev/comments/xgfhvh/why_is_context_safe_to_be_used_inside/

iPad vs. iPhone for physical testing on iOS?

I currently don't have a physical iPhone for testing my Flutter apps, just the MacOS emulator. I was planning to get an iPhone as my next phone for testing purposes but they're hella expensive and I like being able to accidentally drop my janky Android without getting a heart attack. Then I... https://www.reddit.com/r/FlutterDev/comments/xi5ln3/ipad_vs_iphone_for_physical_testing_on_ios/

Are Flutter layout constraints too complex?

I have been developing Flutter all this year and I love it. However, having done lots of WPF development for over 10years, I am still not convinced about the Flutter approach to layouts constraints.

get_it Drawbacks?

Hey, so basically get_it is a service locator that I can use to define singletons and access them from anywhere without the need of context. This seems to solve the accessibility issue of anything requiring to be accessed in different sub-trees (e.g. blocs). Where's the drawback of using get_it? ... https://www.reddit.com/r/FlutterDev/comments/xifun6/get_it_drawbacks/

Mongo_Go driver announcement

Hi, we are developing a Dart full stack application and on a last minute decision, we decided to shift from a previous DB engine to MongoDB. The problem, however, is that we need to use sessions and transactions and the community driver still doesn't support those. So, maybe we were lazy, but... https://www.reddit.com/r/FlutterDev/comments/xiuybd/mongo_go_driver_announcement/

Isolate pooling necessary?

I have to load a number of audio files and images (about 40 in total). I was wondering whether spawning 40 isolates to load the file and decode them is "fast enough" on a medium-end android mobile, or should I create persistent isolates and load balance? Or is the perf difference really visible? ... https://www.reddit.com/r/FlutterDev/comments/xjatr3/isolate_pooling_necessary/

Does a flutter specific error monitoring/crash report tool exist?

How much does a Statefull Widget affect performance?

So I've been a flutter developer for some time now and am moving in towards creating production ready apps. One question I've always wondered is how much does a Statefull Widget affect performance as compared to a stateless widget?
