Flutter 3.7.6 update

Flutter 3.7.6 has been released and it’s packed with new features, bug fixes, and performance improvements that make developing apps in Flutter even easier!

The latest version of Flutter brings a number of major changes such as improved support for AndroidX libraries, updated Material widgets to match the latest Material Design guidelines from Google, and an overhauled engine for faster compilation times on all platforms. Additionally there are several smaller updates including better handling of text input fields across different types of devices (such as tablets) plus some important security patches too.

For developers this release offers plenty to get excited about: the new AndroidX library support makes it easy to integrate existing libraries into your app while still leveraging all the benefits that come with using Flutter; material widget updates give you more options when designing interfaces; plus faster compilation times mean less time spent waiting around during development cycles – something we can all appreciate!

Additionally this update also includes a range of bug fixes which should help reduce any issues encountered by developers working on their projects – particularly those related to internationalization or accessibility-related problems which were previously reported in earlier versions. Finally there’s also improved documentation available online so if you ever need help understanding how something works then chances are you can find what you need quickly without having to contact customer service first!

Overall this is another great step forward for anyone who develops mobile apps using Flutter – whether they be newcomers or seasoned pros alike – so why not take advantage today? Downloading and installing is quick & easy – just head over here now https://flutterstudioappstore/download-fluttersdk/. Happy coding everyone!

Testing Improvements

  • #3791: Tests in nested projects no longer run multiple times when using the Test: Run All Tests command (which often led to package resolution errors as they were running in the context of their parent projects).
  • #3776: Using the testGoldens function from the from golden_toolkit package will no longer cause issues when trying to run/view the results of tests in the tree. Tests may still appear duplicated in the tree if you are using a version of golden_toolkit that does not include this PR (the fix for that is to upgrade the golden_toolkit package).
  • #3803/#3705: It’s now possible to override the launch configuration used when running/debugging tests from the test runner. See the Debugger section below for an example.

Debugger

  • #3759: Clickable paths in stack traces in the Debug Console now jump to the correct line number (instead of always line 1) for assertion failure errors.
  • #3803/#3802: Creating launch configurations for the standard Run/Debug CodeLens links has been simplified so that it can be done with a single field (and now also applies to executions of tests from the test runner):

Ubuntu Makes Flutter ‘Default Choice’ for Future Desktop Apps

Flutter is the default choice for future mobile and desktop apps created by Canonical.

Google’s open-source and cross-platform UI making framework continues to grow in popularity, particularly among web devs looking for an easy “in” to mobile and desktop app development.

Flutter is underpinned by the Dart programming language, but the desktop SDK (which is now available as a stable release) means there’s plenty of support for crafting pseudo-native software that integrates with the underlying desktop OS. 

Or at least, that’s the theory.

Canonical is a vocal supporter of Flutter. It worked with Google to bring the Flutter SDK to Linux desktops via the Snap Store, and plans to create a new Ubuntu installer using the tech.

Now it’s confirmed it’s going all in!
