🚀 #LeanFlutterHacks – Ep. 10: Quick unpack with Dart 3 destructuring 🚀 One of the small but powerful additions in Dart 3 is destructuring. ✨ Instead of accessing properties one by one, you can unpack them all in a single line. 👉 It makes the code shorter and easier to…

🚀 #LeanFlutterHacks – Ep. 9: Let your logger do its job 🚀 Here's a quick tip that can save you a ton of log-cleaning headaches: 🛑 Don't shove errors or stack traces directly into your log message text. ✅ Do pass them as dedicated parameters – most Flutter loggers have…

🚀 #LeanFlutterHacks – Ep. 8: Drop unnecessary dependencies in tests 🚀 When you're writing unit or widget tests, avoid pulling in dependencies that aren't directly relevant to the test - like, for example, custom design system widgets. They add hidden risks that can lead to…

🚀 #LeanFlutterHacks – Ep. 7: Explain code analysis ignores 🚀 We’ve all been there: a lint rule gets in the way, and you drop in an ignore to move on. ✅ Sometimes it’s intentional. ✅ Sometimes it’s just a quick workaround. If you do, always leave a short comment explaining…

🚀 #LeanFlutterHacks – Ep. 6: Avoid redundant `async/await` 🚀 💡Check out how to avoid unnecessary `async/await` keywords! When a function's body is just returning another `Future`, you don't need `async/await` since you're directly passing through the `Future` object itself…

🚀 #LeanFlutterHacks – Ep. 5: Prefix your slivers to avoid mix-ups🚀 Have you ever accidentally passed a sliver into a regular Column or Row? You’re not alone, and the analyzer won’t catch it. Here’s the fix: always prefix widgets that return slivers with `Sliver`. This naming…

🚀 #LeanFlutterHacks – Ep. 4: Pattern matching with `switch`🚀 Struggling with deeply nested `if/else` logic? There's a cleaner way.💡 Pattern matching with `switch` makes your code clearer and visually easier to understand because it mirrors how you'd think through a decision…

🚀 #LeanFlutterHacks – Ep. 3: Use declarative list literals 🚀 Build lists in a declarative way.💡 Instead of a bunch of `.add()` and `.addAll()` calls, use declarative Dart’s list literals to keep your code clean. With `if, ..., ?` and `for`, you can build complex lists in a…

🚀 #LeanFlutterHacks – Ep. 2: More readable test expectations 🚀 Make your #Flutter tests speak for themselves. 📣 Use expressive matches like `isEmpty`, `throwsA`, and `isA` instead of raw comparisons or placeholders, to make tests easier to read and maintain, clearly showing…

🚀 #LeanFlutterHacks – Ep. 1: Checking null in conditions 🚀 Tired of unsafe (!) assertions in #Dart? 😬Pattern matching to the rescue! The BEFORE approach is error-prone - it manually checks for `null`, then forces a non-null assertion (!), which can lead to runtime exceptions…
