Flutter badly needs a better state management story
Before I start complaining: I love Flutter, and I think the folks working on it are fantastic and are focusing on the right things.I was delighted by Flutter when I started to learn it - it seemed opinionated, clear and intuitive to learn and use. It seemed like I had finally found a sane answer for cross platform mobile app development.But then I arrived at state management, and it felt like the wheels fell off.Learning state management has been a huge stumbling block for me learning and moving forward with the framework.I'm new to Flutter and have a ton to learn, but I'm an experienced software engineer, so I think many other new flutter devs are probably feeling the same way that I am.I don't have the answers, but I think Flutter is an incredible project and I want to see it succeed, so I'd like to see the community talking about this more. (Or maybe someone can tell me I'm being ridiculous and should just use "X" - I'd be okay with that too : P )I'm still trying to get my head around exactly why state management seems overly complicated, but here area few ideas:Too many options, not enough opinionsIt's hard to understand (from reading the docs/guides) what the Flutter team thinks you should do.This, for instance, feels like the docs saying: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"Provider" seems solid, but is confusing (may be a naming convention thing)After a lot of research, it seems like "Provider" is the leading/most recommended solution, currently. I'm seeing a lot of people saying "don't overthink it, just use Provider".But going from a primarily UI component based widget tree full of "buttons" and "lists", to a widget tree riddled with "ChangeNotifierProviders", "MultiProviders", "Consumers", and "Models" feels a bit overwhelming.In addition, the generic nature of the naming conventions (Provider? What is it providing? Could we just say "data" somewhere here?) adds a lot of cognitive overhead - at least for me.I feel like Provider is very close to a great solution, but I just wish it was more intuitive.What's a widget, again?While I've accepted that Everything Is A Widget, I think Flutter could be better if there was a clearer differentiation between widgets that represent a "physical" part of the UI (like a button, scaffold, card, etc..), and widgets that are used that just for passing state around, but don't actually represent a UI component.There's a moment of "whiplash" that happens in the learning process that I haven't seen addressed.
When you start learning Flutter, a "widget" seems to be defined as a UI component that may contain some state and can respond to interaction.But when you start moving into (even very simple) state management, suddenly widgets become something much more broad and confusing. A widget can just be concerned with data, or transferring state. This is a big change, and it can be hard to get your head around at first.I think the docs could be clearer about this. I'm not entirely sure how.---Thanks for reading if you've gotten this far, would love to hear if other people are struggling with these things too, or if I'm the anomaly here.And again - I really appreciate all the work that the contributors/team have done for this project, and hope that it continues to grow and become better.

Why does r/androiddev hates Flutter?
So lately I've been scrolling through r/androiddev (I have 5+ years of Android dev experience, currently working with Flutter). What I realized is that most people over there do not really understand Flutter and starts bashing it here and there.By the looks of it, they literally hate Dart as a language and have fallen in love with Kotlin. I couldn't think of any particular reason why they'd do so without even giving flutter a try.Most comments that are logical and praise flutter are downvoted into oblivion.Why, do you guys think, android devs just hate Flutter? Have you had similar experiences in the past too?

What is the best way to handle with screen sizes?
Hi !I'm working in my first side project and I have a doubt with how to handle the sizes of my widgets depending on the device screen.In iPhone 11 looks great, but when I emulate it in Nexus 5 all things become enormous... typographies, inputs, buttons... :(What do you think that is the most efficient way (that it's OK for the most cases) to have a nice UI always ?Thank you !

Just started to learn flutter and I find it very complicated!!
I find it hard that widgets don't have IDs that we can call and easily retrieve their value. Why I have to create a lot of texteditincontrollers just to retrieve values of my textfields. Is there an easier way to do this??

State Management/Database components...
I am 2 months into Flutter/Dart learning. So far I am amazed at what can be done, but maybe I'm totally missing something. This is not a complaint, but perhaps a bit of confusion. I come from 35 years building DOS, then Windows client server business apps, the last 20 in Delphi/Pascal.Basically, state was not an issue and database usage was as easy as buy/write/share a database library/package where the boilerplate can live and from the developer's point of view:Establish your database connection (login to SQL, noSQL, flat file...)Create table (container) level components, datasets that hold the query (sql...)Connect your visual components (grids/lists/dropdowns) to the datasets. User actions take you from there.I know, and can see the beauty of streams of data that update your chat, or messaging app, but honestly, in my 35 years I have only needed that in a few apps. Mostly business apps are: collect data, present data, manipulate data, post data, report on the data.I see Flutter as an excellent way to get data in, and probably do everything else, but I don't understand why there is so much boilerplate code required to do what seems to be so simple. There are soooo many great widgets and packages and whole apps you can download for free, but is there a simple database CRUD package without all the boilerplate?​Thanks for leaving me space to vent lol
