Interesting post about showing yearly vs monthly prices first

TLDR: Showing monthly prices by default is better :)

The next article will be about building efficient CI pipelines for large flutter projects

Happy to share that Sizzle Starter is now updated to Flutter 3.32.0

Together with this update, I have landed a few important ones:
- Now app (root) project is located in "app" folder. This stimulates modularization principles
- flutter gen-l10n is not used anymore for localizations in favor of intl_utils (from Localizely)
- some other minor changes..

Following updates might be focused on modularization practices, such as moving features to feature-modules and shared code into corresponding packages, so they are more reusable.

If you want to make your VS Code indentation a bit more beautiful for #Flutter widgets, set "dart.previewFlutterUiGuides" to true

If I'm not mistaken, the same thing exists in IDEA :)

Great video from Mikhail Zotyev about slivers!

I have started working on my next article, which is about semantics and accessibility in Flutter.

We will discuss how to design components to make them accessible to users. You will learn how to use the Semantics widget correctly and understand the differences between semantics properties and widgets. Finally, I will demonstrate how to debug accessibility, write tests, and confirm that you are heading in the right direction.

I will be presenting “Performant Scrolling Layouts with Slivers” on Fluttercon in Berlin!

I've been using geminicommit cli for some time for creating commits. And it actually creates good commits. Much better than Cursor or Copilot "generate with AI" function. Moreover, this is entirely free as gemini has very generous free tier (100 API requests per day for 2.5 Pro and 250 RPD for 2.5 Flash).

Currently, I use 2.5 Flash as it generates commits faster and still reliable (I also had some issues with 2.5 pro errors)

So.. plans slightly changed.. and I have written an article about basics of Domain-Driven design 😄. Specifically, about subdomains.
I have recently started exploring the concepts of DDD and find its practices and approaches helpful in writing code.

The article is free of charge, please share what you think!

P.S. I'm planning to update old articles with new details. After that, I would like to continue this architectural series. Next article might be about modeling business logic using ideas from DDD and Clean Architecture.

Some time ago, I mentioned that I had built a Flutter package for upscaling images using Rust.

Now, the Dart team is working on a 'Native Assets' feature that, in theory, will enable it to be bundled as a Dart package without Flutter required as a dependency! This would make it easier to use the package in the Dart CLI or on the backend.
