Building Figma to Flutter: @FlanvaHQ. Loving design + code + @FlutterDev - author of bitsdojo_window -

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

I’ve always found converting Figma designs to #Flutter code pretty tedious, so I built something to make it easier.

If you’ve been there too, follow me here or check out https://t.co/zcXTSMFzlg for updates.

Here is a short preview of how Flanva works.

2/2 🧵

@norbertkozsir This looks really cool. Can't wait to try it

@Adeomotosho1 @KefehCollins @rodydavis More examples of unnecessary complexity here:

My take on #Flutter state management:

• Bloc: Good for teams, not for small projects
• Provider/Riverpod: Overengineered; Riverpod docs never felt right
• ChangeNotifier/ValueNotifier: Simple but can get verbose over time

Signals by @rodydavis hits the right balance for me.

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

@Adeomotosho1 @KefehCollins @rodydavis It’s great that it works for you.

I’m just saying there are better ways to achieve the same result with less code and fewer new concepts to learn.

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

@Adeomotosho1 @KefehCollins @rodydavis ConsumerWidget, ConsumerStatefulWidget and ConsumerState also bring unnecessary complexity

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

@KefehCollins @rodydavis I believe you can get the benefits that riverpod offers without using code gen and I personally like to avoid code gen if I can.

Again, this is just what works best for me and other things might work better for someone else.

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

@KefehCollins @rodydavis Have you tried signals?

Curious to see how you find riverpod after trying signals.

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

@KefehCollins @rodydavis When you say it is far more intuitive, what are you comparing it to?

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

@KefehCollins @rodydavis The annotations and code generation bring unnecessary complexity in my opinion.

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

Good documentation at https://t.co/riMLbyu0vg

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

@luke_pighetti @whoisgraham Probably easier to update as a package. Maybe @k8lovett has more insights on this.

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

@luke_pighetti @whoisgraham I recommend TableView from https://t.co/BKs4acpIPL

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

I think the React Native folks joking about #Flutter ‘dying’ (again) is the best proof they see it as a worthy competitor.

Your biggest competitor is the one you keep mentioning.

Keep calm, use what works for you, and keep shipping.

I’ll use these words from @dhh as a reminder whenever someone says SQLite doesn’t scale:

Our primary priority for Ruby on Rails is getting you from 0-1. Once you've become rich beyond belief, you can afford to tackle whatever unique frontier problems you face at that scale. Get the bag first, then worry about how to hold it!

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

@raoufrahiche Love it!

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

When working on backend, which one of these do you spend more time on?

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

@viktorlidholt @levelsio @ServerpodDev PHP doesn't seem to be an issue for Laravel:

[Bogdan Hobeanu @callmebit]

Was looking forward to trying the @ServerpodDev VS Code extension only to find out it doesn't work with serverpod mini projects :(

[Flutter @FlutterDev]

@dart_lang When you use Serverpod, you can write your server-side code in Dart, automatically generate your APIs, and hook up your database with minimal effort. 🔌

Use Serverpod Insights to view your server’s logs, track database queries, and more→ https://t.co/yqrT9i5s5I
