7 Shortcuts for flutter development
MartÃn Fenocchio has provided 7 keyboard shortcuts for programming in Flutter which can be used to select a device, run an app and reload the app. Using these shortcuts is more productive than using the mouse. The settings can be opened by pressing F1 and searching for 'Shortcuts'. Then search for 'Flutter' to find the 'Flutter: Select Device' shortcut and click it to set the keybinding. There is also a shortcut called 'Debug: start' to run the app with or without debugging. Finally, there is a manual reload shortcut that can be used in cases of a crash.

I finally created an app I'm proud of!
I've been working in Flutter for just over a year now and up until now I have been making apps that have quite a few bugs, or aren't particularly well made, but this week I have finished my first app that I'm actually happy to share with people!The app is designed to help people get a better overview of their finances by helping track the balance in various accounts and plotting that over time.Please check it out and if you had some time, I'd really appreciate some feedback on what I could improve!
Flutter for a holistic self-development app
Hi everyone,I'm working on a project to create a holistic personal development app. This would include features like habit tracking, fitness tracker, meditation, sleep tracker etc.After some research, I decided Flutter would be the best framework to create it. However, having no experience in coding, I'm using a no-code platform called FlutterFlow to create it. I'm aware of the limitation and would probably need to work with a developer to build the most technical functionalities.Someone told me that I wouldn't be able to create a sleep tracker because flutter is not able to use the microphone while the phone screen is off. Could someone confirm whether this is true?Also regarding the backend, I'm hesitating between Firebase and Supabase. The whole point of my app is to correlate data between the different parts of the app, that way I can provide sophisticated insight to the user about what activity impacts his daily life (stress, happiness, weight, energy etc). Could I still use firebase to do correlational analysis knowing that it is a non-relational database?Thank you for your support and if any developer is interested in this project, I'd be happy to discuss this in more detail as I'm looking for CTO partner.
