Hey folks! 👋 Another week, another batch of projects shipped. Let me walk you through everything I've been building, breaking, and fixing. Grab your coffee ☕ and let's dive in!
🌐 Web Projects That Got Some Love
🎨 flagodna.com - Portfolio Refresh
What changed? Added Lens Browser to my project showcase (available in English & Indonesian)
Why bother? Simple - if you're not showing your latest work, you're basically hiding it. Your portfolio should breathe and evolve with you! 🌱
💝 dukung.flagodna.com - Fresh Off The Press!
Built a shiny new donation platform from scratch using Astro.js
What's cooking:
- 📜 Daily wisdom drops about charity & giving back
- 💳 Multiple payment gates: Sociabuzz, Bank Transfer, GoPay
- 💬 WhatsApp Business integration for payment confirmations
The real tea: Sociabuzz is cool and all, but sometimes people just want to support you directly, no middleman. So I gave them options! 🎯
Coming soon: WhatsApp bot for auto-verification + UI glow-up ✨
🔥 Backend Magic
⚡ Firebase Wrangler API Server
Rolled out fresh API endpoints specifically for my Flutter crash reporter testing. Because what's a crash reporter if you can't... you know... test it? 🧪
📱 Flutter Plugin Universe Expansion
This was THE week for Flutter plugins. Let me break it down:
🆕 crash_reporter - The New Kid on the Block
The origin story: After building telegram_crash_reporter, I had an epiphany 💡 - why force everyone into one channel?
What it does:
- ✉️ Telegram reports
- 💬 Slack notifications
- 🎮 Discord webhooks
- 🔗 Custom webhook support
Philosophy: Your app, your rules. Pick where you want your crash reports!
What's next? Maybe WhatsApp support? Sky's the limit! 🚀
🔄 telegram_crash_reporter - Optimization Time
What happened? Complete refactor for better performance and cleaner code
The why: I looked at the codebase and thought "I can do better." So I did. Sometimes you gotta revisit and refine! 💪
Status: Production-ready and purring like a kitten 😺
📝 flutter_fastlog - Logger 2.0
Gave my logging plugin a serious upgrade with customization at its core.
Game-changing updates:
- 🏷️
justDebug→showLog(because clarity matters!) - 🎨 New
outputStyle: standard, minimal, or none - your pick - 🔒 Auto-stealth mode in release builds
- 🎁 Bonus params:
prettyJson,showCaller - ⚡ Lightning-fast minimal logging mode
My take: A logger should be like a good sidekick - helpful when you need it, invisible when you don't! 🦸
🌟 api_client_plus - Say Goodbye to Boilerplate
The problem: Spending 2-3 hours setting up HTTP clients for every. single. project. 😤
The solution: One plugin to rule them all!
What makes it special:
- 🚀 Setup in minutes, not hours
- 🔧 Works across different scenarios
- 📦 Zero boilerplate syndrome
Real talk: It's working great in my projects, but I need more battle-testing before calling it 100% prod-ready
🏛️ Project 246 - The Organization App Glow-Up
Just dropped a major update to the Play Store! This baby serves a religious organization's internal ops.

💭 Developer Diary
Here's what hit me this week: Every plugin I build is a gift to future-me 🎁
Seriously though, spending time now to create reusable tools saves HOURS (sometimes days!) on future projects. It's like planting trees - you might not get immediate shade, but your future self will thank you. 🌳
Also, documenting everything isn't just for others - it's for when I come back to a project 6 months later wondering "what was I thinking?!" 😅
🤷 What's Next Week Looking Like?
Honestly? Your guess is as good as mine! 🎲
That's the beauty of indie dev life - you follow the problems, opportunities, and sometimes just your gut feeling.
Potential adventures:
- 🧪 Stress-testing
api_client_plusin the wild - 🎨 Expanding Project 246's admin features
- 💡 New plugins born from real pain points
- 🌟 Whatever cool idea pops into my head!
