Using jnigen I created bindings to developer.android.com/guide/playco... and was able to call core Android APIs directly from Dart. Isn't that cool?! Blog post coming soon :)

Just posted some of my thoughts on Dart macros not coming

Dart macros are not coming
Dart team just announced they will be stopping working on macros. I don't think it's that bad, though.

It's quite cool to see community efforts to bring multi-window experience to Flutter. The popularity of it says it all, developers look for high quality multi-window support across all platforms.

Just found cool-looking e-mail desktop app, but it's Electron-based.

Somehow with at least 3-4 other Electron apps running I'm actively avoiding them

People like @schultek.dev are invaluable in the Dart ecosystem, I'd like to give a shout-out today for his high quality packages!

Examples:
dart_mappable - Data classes with json support
stromberry - Postgres ORM
Jaspr - Web framework

Who would you like to give a shout-out to? 😃

Something that I've finally got time to play with was jnigen. I heard about it from @youse.fi last year and wanted to see if I can migrate one of the plugins and skip method channels.
It worked pretty well so I wrote about it occasionalflutter.substack.com/p/native-int...

Native interop with Kotlin/Java in Flutter
Got quite excited to use jnigen to generate Kotlin/Java bindings for Flutter plugins.

#Flutter merge day 1: pretty successful, with a side of draft PRs.

Someday the infrastructure will be simpler and we'll all look back on this and chuckle about the old days.

Few weeks ago we had to wait 4-5 days for a closed lane review in Google Play (on a version bump). Today it went through closed lane in about 10 min, and to production in about 15 min.

Meanwhile iOS TestFlight is a bit slower, after about 40 min the build got to review.

how do you all remember every UUID? I find it really hard. so I wrote them all down on every uuid dot com

the list has fast search across all 2^122 values (so you can find your favorites) - hoping to add some social features like "trending UUIDs" soon!

What made @caseynewton.bsky.social’s critique on AI skepticism so “disgraceful” (to quote @edzitron.com)?

Since AI skepticism will a vital counterweight in the years ahead, I deconstruct it in depth here. With shoutouts to many of the AI skeptics he forgot.

I missed people being able to discuss in a more depth than what Twitter or Bluesky allows. Even Reddit or Hackernews comments don't offer this kind of flexibility. This is why I enjoy classic-style #Flutter forum so much.
