Getting Started

1. create your own project with Android Studio or flutter create command

2. copy these files and folder into your new project

• assets
• lib
• test
• pubspec.yaml
• analysis_options.yaml (optional)
• README.md (optional)

3. if you are using flavor

• change bundle id and app name in pubspec.yaml

• run flutter pub run flutter_flavorizr -p assets:download,assets:extract,ios:xcconfig,ios:buildTargets,ios:schema,ios:plist,assets:clean,ide:config,android:buildGradle,android:androidManifest to generate flavor config for ios and android if you're using flavor.

• copy these files for a different launcher icon base on flavor

  • flutter_launcher_icons-prod.yaml
  • flutter_launcher_icons-dev.yaml
  • flutter_launcher_icons-staging.yaml

4. copy .github folder if you're using github action

5. delete all firebase dependency in pubspec.yaml if you're not using firebase

6. run flutter pub get

7. In [project]/android/app/build.gradle set minSdkVersion to >= 18 to use flutter_secure_storage

8. You can copy any platform configuration setup (example: build.gradle, androidManifest) from this project into your new project

App Icon

• replace your icon file in assets/image/app-icon.png
• run: flutter pub run flutter_launcher_icons:main
• if there is an error, change minSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion in android app gradle to integer instead
• note: this command will run all flutter_launcher_icon with flavor if you have any
• App Icon isn't dynamic by flavor in ios. you need to replace a String ""$(ASSET_PREFIX)AppIcon";" to ""$(ASSET_PREFIX)AppIcon"-$(ASSET_PREFIX);" in ios/project.pbxproj

Hive database

2. run flutter packages pub run build_runner build to generate Hive TypeAdapter model
