Do comments count? 😅

I would be so happy to see poll support in @bsky.app 🥺

It would change the way I do open-source because I really care about y’all’s opinion 🫶

Code should be self-documenting: the code should reveal *what* it is doing. But, this will rarely tell you *why* the code is doing it, and that's where well-written comments are needed. Same for commit messages. The diff will tell you *what* got changed, but the commit message should tell you *why*.

I struggle with the same thing! Most of my SDK contributions are not visually compelling and most are bug fixes 😅
If you ever find out how to handle it, I'm all ears 😂
If I figure it out I'll be sure to let you know!

So, as if I haven't been doing enough stuff lately, I also decided to finally release my `AutoLayoutFrame` Flutter widget

Yes, just like the Figma thing! ✨

still need to iron out some bugs/tests before it goes out, but we're getting there

...and that's still not "the big thing" I'm releasing this month!
Thankfully I'm getting some help from @jolexxa.bsky.social and @fmorschel.dev on that so stay tuned 🤫🩵 #FlutterDev

due_date | Dart package A package for working with repeating DateTime patterns (like the same day every month).

📅 Tired of tricky date logic in Dart?
Try DueDate - the easy way to handle recurring dates and periods! Effortlessly manage things like "last day of every month" or check if a date falls within a range.

I created a new account for my new app. Would be cool if you could give it some likes and follow

Are you upgrading Very Good Analysis correctly? 🤔

If you use Dependabot, it updates pubspec.yaml but not analysis_options.yaml if you pinned a version.

Use the latest version instead, then Dependabot PRs are all you need (aside from fixing warnings/errors). 👍

Hey @labenz.dev I was watching the minesweeper observable Flutter and you mentioned disabling tooltips for the build show. I'd suggest looking into VS Code profiles. You can have specific settings and extensions for each of those (if you dislike project specific ones)

Recursive function calls in `Show Call Hierarchy` distinction to avoid infinite tree · Issue #258860 · microsoft/vscode Context at dart-lang/sdk#61213.

I actually have it set up to a Spotify playlist nowadays hahaha

Oh, these things never worked for me 😅

I turn them off (I had to do some math, solve a maze and some other things, all one after another with the music playing) and then immediately go back to sleep 😂

Maybe the music wasn't the best one or whatever but it didn't work hahaha

That is why I have a cup 😂
I tend to avoid having to open the bottle. With the cup is even easier (it feels small but it makes me drink a lot more, IDK why)

Always keep an easy way to access it. I usually go for a cup (not bottle because you then need to open it) and a bottle close to me (usually on the ground but if you have the space) so I can refill it when I empty it
Easy access for things you want to do more and hard access to stop doing is the way

I'm so waiting for Cosmic to be launched! Hopefully I can make my whole workflow (some specific windows apps from work are my wory) work on POP (possibly using LSW - yes it exists)

But between the above, I have no preference, only used Ubuntu previously so I can't say

Does anyone know how to make the new `.gradle.kts` extension files display syntax highlight/colouring? My VS Code refuses to have any colouring for these files, no matter what I do 🙃

We’re consciously decoupling. 😉

The latest Flutter beta was updated on Aug 1: 3.35.0-0.2.pre

We're locking down for the next stable release. We'd love to know if you find any show stoppers as soon as possible. Please file issue with the `flutter --version` info included.

It’s happening! The #FlutterDev core team decided to move Material and Cupertino outside of the framework, and instead focus on a core set of design-neutral widgets! ✨💙
