The bang at the end of:

 * On May 6, 2020, the Dart SDK in version 2.8 and the Flutter in version 1.17.0 were released, where support was added to the Metal API, greatly improving performance on iOS devices (approximately 50%), new Material widgets, in addition new network tracking tools and much more!

... makes me think that this is really marketing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.38.182.133 (talk) 17:10, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Introduce concepts

This article is a bit terse. An introduction in this article to concepts used in Flutter, like bloc (noun) (from the pattern BLoC (Business Logic Components)), cubit, and streams (in this context), would be nice.

Hello World example is crap

It's written so that it works and has lots of comments, but the point of a Hello World program is that it is something the newbie programmer can type up in a few seconds to see that the package has been installed and works and produces results. It is something that builds confidence. Not a chunk out of the language textbook, with perfectly formed comments and variable names and so on. It is the bare minimum. --Pete (talk) 17:02, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. I deleted this section entirely because:
1. This section has no sources and is not verifiable
2. This section looks like a slightly modified copy-paste of step 1 from this guide.
3. Wikipedia is not a guide
I don't see how this section could be useful to a reader, since there are better guides online. For all these reasons, I deleted this section. If anyone disagrees, please feel free to revert my change. Also, please comment below how you plan to improve this section.
My change for your review or revert:

About Miquido blog

I removed two sources linking to Miquido.com blog because they appeared not in-depth (first one) and promotional for the company (second one). If you want to add them, let's discuss the possibility of their use here. Please don't revert edits without any explanation even in the edit summary. Courtesy ping for Lexidus. Thanks, Anton.bersh (talk) 08:21, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's Lexidus here - I apologize for my discourtesy, I am a fairly new Wikipedia editor. I am wondering if removing the CTA at the end of the 2nd link (talking about Flutter 2.0) would make it a viable resource? In my opinion, its' take on Flutter 2.0 is fairly in-depth. Thanks, Lexidus (talk)

Hi, welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for responding here. Wikipedia can be hard to edit properly, partially due to complex rules about editing, partially because of limitations of the Wikimedia software. I hope you will find this general advice helpful:

  1. Please sign your comments on talk pages by placing four tildes after your comments like this: ~~~~. Four tildes are preferred over three tildes because other users might need the comment timestamp for some reason.
  2. Please use the edit summary field to explain why you make changes, especially if you think another editor is likely to object. Reverts almost always indicate disagreement, so explaining reverts is even more important than explaining regular edits.
  3. If you want to learn more about editing Wikipedia, the Wikipedia:The_Wikipedia_Adventure explains some rules in a game format.

Back to your question: what do you mean by "removing the CTA at the end of the 2nd link"? Do you have the ability to edit Miquido blog? Thanks, Anton.bersh (talk) 12:31, 2 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Thanks for linking to the resources, it will be really helpful. I have the ability to contact the author of the blog post directly and she might consider making the edit. But this is a broader question too, what do you think about linking to companies' blog articles that don't have a promotional quality?
