Called AutomaticKeepAliveClientMixin in your State class.

class _SearchScreenState extends State<SearchScreen> with AutomaticKeepAliveClientMixin<SearchScreen>{

...

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) { 
    // call this method
    super.build(context); 

    /// your widget here
  }

  @override
  bool get wantKeepAlive => true;

}

Flutter

1. Add flutter_windowmanager to pubspec.yaml.
2. Add the code below. If needed to apply on complete app, then call it in main.dart file.

Future<void> secureScreen() async {
  await FlutterWindowManager.addFlags(FlutterWindowManager.FLAG_SECURE);
}

@override
void initState() {
  secureScreen();
  super.initState();
}

Android

1. Locate MainActivity file and import Android.view.windowmanager.layoutparams.
2. Add the code below.

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.oCreate(savedInstanceState);

  getWindow().addFlags(LayoutParams.FLAG_SECURE);
}

ios

1. Locate Appdelegate.m file and add the code below.

@implementation AppDelegate

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application
    didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)LaunchOptions {
  [GeneratedPluginRegistrant registerWithRegistry:self];
  //Override point for customization after application launch.
  return [super application:application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions];
}

- (void)applicationWillResignActive:(UIApplication *)application {
    self.window.hidden = YES;
}

- (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application {
    self.window.hidden = NO;
}

@end

import 'dart:math';

...

int min = 0;
int max = somList.length - 1;
Random rnd = new Random();

int r = min + rnd.nextInt(max - min);

return someList[r];

Enable Split-Per-ABI

flutter build apk --split-per-abi

In build.gradle:

splits {
  abi {
    enable true
    reset()
    include 'armeabi-v7a', 'arm64-v8a'
    universalApk false
  }
}

Enable Code + Resource Shrinking

In your build.gradle (same file as above):

gradle
buildTypes {
    release {
        shrinkResources true
        minifyEnabled true
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
}

Then I created a simple proguard-rules.pro file in the android/app/ directory. This file prevents critical Flutter classes from being stripped out:

proguard
# Flutter wrapper classes
-keep class io.flutter.** { *; }
-keep class io.flutter.plugins.** { *; }
# Keep your plugin classes (adjust as needed)
-keep class com.yourapp.** { *; }
# Prevent shrinking of entry points
-keep class MainActivity
-keep class *.MainActivity { *; }

void main() {
  setUrlStrategy(PathUrlStrategy());
  runApp(MyApp());
}

var ids = [1, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6];

//toSet and then toList
var distinctIds = ids.toSet().toList();

//Spread operators
var distinctIds = [...{...ids}];

The RenderBox was not laid out error is often caused by one of two other errors :

• Vertical viewport was given unbounded height
• An InputDecorator...cannot have an unbounded width

Try to have all the colors in a single class for your application. Use a color class to set colors in flutter app. It will be easy to change the color everywhere at once.

Don't

style: Textstyle(color: Colors.white, fontsize: 14),

Do

class AppColors{
  static const Color red = Color(0xXFFFFO000);
  static const Color green = Color(oxFF4CAF50);
  static const Color errorRed Color(OxFFFF6E6E);
}
  
style: Textstyle(color: errorRed, fontsize: 14),

One way to avoid this error is to use the Navigator API to trigger the dialog as a route.

body: Center(
  child: ElevatedBut ton(
    child: Text ('Launch screen')
    onPressed: () {
      // Navigate to the second screen using a named route.
      Navigator.pushNamed (context, '/second');
      // Immediately show a dialog upon loading the second screen.
      Navigator.push(
        context,
        PageRouteBuilder (
          barrierDismissible : true,
          opaque: false,
          pageBuilder: (_, anim1, anim2) => MyDialog(),
        ),
      );
    }
  )
)

1. Navigate to the flutter/packages/flutter_tools/gradle/.
2. Use a text editor to open the flutter.gradle file located in the gradle folder.
3. Inside the file, find and modify the compileSdkVersion, targetSdkVersion, and minSdkVersion to the desired API levels.
4. After saving, run the following commands in your terminal to rebuild the Flutter app.

API levels

compileSdkVersion = 33
targetSdkVersion = 33
minSdkVersion = 21

commands

flutter clean
flutter pub get
flutter build <platform>  # e.g., flutter build apk

var list = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'];

list.shuffle();

Always specify the type of member when its value type is known. Avoid using var when possible.

Do

int item = 10;
final Car bar = Car();
String name = 'john';
const int timeOut = 20;

Don't

var item = 10;
final car = Car();
const timeOut = 2000;
