This is a template for a Flutter project.
This project was created to serve as a template for future Flutter projects. It includes internationalization, light and dark themes, and an app options class that can be used to store app-wide settings.
flutter_starter_template.webm
Internationalization is a feature that I find myself adding to most projects. But I find myself having to look up how to do every time I start a new project, so I wanted to have a template that I could use to quickly get started on a new project and support multiple languages, as well as multiple themes.
There are a few things that I would like to add in the future:
- Responsiveness support
- A more robust app options class
This app is set up to support multiple languages.
It is internationalized using the arb format. See Internationalizing Flutter apps for more information.
To add a language, create a file in the lib/l10n directory and name it intl_<language>.arb. The file should contain a single arb file, with the following format:
{
"appTitle": "Flutter Starter Template",
"@appTitle": {
"description": "The title of the app"
}
"appDescription": "This is a template for a Flutter project. It includes multiple language support, light and dark themes, andi is ready for responsive design.",
"@appDescription": {
"description": "App description"
}
...
}
Use AppLocalizations.of(context).nameOfTheKey in the app to get the translation for the current locale.
e.g. AppLocalizations.of(context).appTitle will return the translation for the key appTitle in the current locale.
Generated files are created when app is ran, and can be found under: .dart_tool/flutter_gen/gen_l10n
Themes are defined in lib/core/app_themes_data.dart.
App options are defined in lib/core/app_options.dart.
