How do I use Firebase features? |
Most Firebase functions are covered by |
first party plugins. |
These plugins are first-party integrations, |
maintained by the Flutter team:You can also find some third-party Firebase plugins on |
pub.dev that cover areas not directly covered by the |
first-party plugins.<topic_end> |

How do I build my own custom native integrations? |
If there is platform-specific functionality that Flutter |
or its community Plugins are missing, |
you can build your own following the |
developing packages and plugins page.Flutter’s plugin architecture, in a nutshell, is much like using an Event bus in |
Android: you fire off a message and let the receiver process and emit a result |
back to you. In this case, the receiver is code running on the native side |
on Android or iOS.<topic_end> |

How do I use the NDK in my Flutter application? |
If you use the NDK in your current Android application and want your Flutter |
application to take advantage of your native libraries then it’s possible by |
building a custom plugin.Your custom plugin first talks to your Android app, where you call your |
native functions over JNI. Once a response is ready, |
send a message back to Flutter and render the result.Calling native code directly from Flutter is currently not supported.<topic_end> |

How do I theme my app? |
Out of the box, Flutter comes with a beautiful implementation of Material |
Design, which takes care of a lot of styling and theming needs that you would |
typically do. Unlike Android where you declare themes in XML and then assign it |
to your application using AndroidManifest.xml, in Flutter you declare themes |
in the top level widget.To take full advantage of Material Components in your app, you can declare a top |
level widget MaterialApp as the entry point to your application. MaterialApp |
is a convenience widget that wraps a number of widgets that are commonly |
required for applications implementing Material Design. |
It builds upon a WidgetsApp by adding Material specific functionality.You can also use a WidgetsApp as your app widget, which provides some of the |
same functionality, but is not as rich as MaterialApp.To customize the colors and styles of any child components, pass a |
ThemeData object to the MaterialApp widget. For example, in the code below, |
the color scheme from seed is set to deepPurple and text selection color is red. |
<code_start>import 'package:flutter/material.dart'; |
class SampleApp extends StatelessWidget { |
const SampleApp({super.key}); |
@override |
Widget build(BuildContext context) { |
return MaterialApp( |
title: 'Sample App', |
theme: ThemeData( |
colorScheme: ColorScheme.fromSeed(seedColor: Colors.deepPurple), |
textSelectionTheme: |
const TextSelectionThemeData(selectionColor: Colors.red), |
), |
home: const SampleAppPage(), |
); |
} |
}<code_end> |

How do I access Shared Preferences? |
In Android, you can store a small collection of key-value pairs using |
the SharedPreferences API.In Flutter, access this functionality using the |
Shared_Preferences plugin. |
This plugin wraps the functionality of both |
Shared Preferences and NSUserDefaults (the iOS equivalent). |
<code_start>import 'dart:async'; |
import 'package:flutter/material.dart'; |
import 'package:shared_preferences/shared_preferences.dart'; |
void main() { |
runApp( |
const MaterialApp( |
home: Scaffold( |
body: Center( |
child: ElevatedButton( |
onPressed: _incrementCounter, |
child: Text('Increment Counter'), |
), |
), |
), |
), |
); |
} |
Future<void> _incrementCounter() async { |
SharedPreferences prefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance(); |
