How will I handle app flavors?
Like dev, test and prod environments in the Web, in mobile and desktop apps we have something called app flavors that is created by using separate identifiers that splits the app into separate unique apps from a single source code so that your device now shows up multiple apps with different environments from a single source code.
The concept of app flavors, supported only on iOS, Android and MacOS, is very helpful and practical, however, most people simply ignore this because the initial setup is quite complicated and lengthy. And if some native configuration is required or Xcode is updated then we end up getting a massive headache trying to fix (migrate) the issue.
So I am researching on a simple app flavor generation tool within the flutter_app_icons_generator package so that we can additionally configure app flavors without needing other tools. This will help us stay consistent with our previous implementation.
And yes, this is super complicated! but that's what engineers do, right?!
Join along with me to find out what is going to become of flutter_app_icons_generator package 😉.
