Back from #FlutterConEU2025 with a full heart 💙 This year was intense, exciting, and truly rewarding!

Huge thanks to organizers, fellow committee members, speakers, and everyone who stopped by to chat, reminding me once again how amazing and inspiring #Flutter community is!

I am so excited to share what I’ve been preparing for my upcoming talk “Behind the @ – Dart Annotations in Depth” for @flutterfriends.dev conference! 🔥

I’ve put together a mix of beginner-friendly and advanced topics, including:

🔹 Built-in Dart annotations you can already use today...

Maintaining barrel files in #Flutter projects can be a chore. Keeping barrel files exports in sync with the new package structure after every refactor is tedious and error-prone.

That’s where barrel_files #Dart package comes in handy!

I have a new #FlutterWatchClub recommendation for y’all! Recently, in our #Flutter team, we watched “Demystifying App Architecture: the LeanCode @leancode.co guide” by Mateusz Wojtczak and Marcin Chudy at Flutter Connection 2024 (linked below).

At #WeAreDevelopers #WorldCongress this year we, Anna @foxanna.bsky.social and Oleksandr @olexale.bsky.social Leushchenko - Senior Staff Engineers at Tide, will dive into the topic of prioritizing user experience over platform-specific design and give advice on how to implement this in practice.

While #FlutterCon2024 is about to start next week, I’d like to make a #FlutterWatchClub recommendation from the previous edition, where me, Anna Leushchenko @foxanna.bsky.social, together with Sarah Fullmer @sarahf.bsky.social conducted "Live technical interviews for #Flutter roles".

Are you looking forward to macros support in stable #Dart? Isn’t it cool to be able to update a class, and with the snap of a finger have the generated code update accordingly? It looks very promising!..

More thoughts in the carousel 👇🏻
Are you looking forward to macros support in stable Dart? Isn’t it cool to be able to update a class, and with the snap of a finger have the generated code update accordingly? It looks very promising! I share the general excitement about this feature, however, I believe it won’t fully replace the existing code-generating solution in many larger Flutter projects. Just like build_runner, the macros feature is designed to be combined with packages, which are mainly written by the community. Clearly, tasks like JSON deserialization and Dart classes enhancement get the most attention, and code-generating packages with macros support are already available for early preview. But for other tasks like dependency injection, navigation, API consumption, etc. it may take more time to migrate, if it makes sense to migrate at all. Will both current and new mechanisms coexist nicely in a single project? I guess so. Despite some opinions, macros are not replacing build_runner in the observable future. At max, we may end up using both to solve different tasks in the same project. Because build_runner is here to stay, I believe it is important to talk about productivity optimization strategies for larger Flutter projects with extensive code generation usage. This is going to be the primary topic of the “Your ultimate guide to code generation productivity for **Dart and Flutter**” session at FlutterCon Europe where I will not only show how to speed up the generation process, but also how to minimize chances for merge conflicts and improve overall developers’ experience. See you there!

I think we all agree that JSON deserialization is one of the most common tasks we as developers of #Dart and #Flutter applications, have to perform regularly, which means that implementation efficiency in this area has a significant impact on the overall speed and ease of the development. Yet...

Just recently I published a fundamental work "Code Generation with Dart and Flutter: The Ultimate Guide", where I explained how `build_runner` works and what useful packages you can pair it with to simplify typical #Flutter app development tasks.

Today’s #FlutterWatchClub recommendation is not about #Flutter development in particular, but touches on a broader software development topic: "The Only Unbreakable Law" lecture by Casey Muratori.
