Getting Started

This project is a starting point for a Flutter application.

A few resources to get you started if this is your first Flutter project:

For help getting started with Flutter, view our online documentation, which offers tutorials, samples, guidance on mobile development, and a full API reference.

Setting up the Development Environment

Setup a VM with Ubuntu 20.04 (Or others if you dare) I chose to use 20.04.1 LTS Install vscode sudo snap install code --classic

Install flutter: sudo snap install flutter --classic flutter sdk-path

Install other dependencies sudo apt install -Y git openjdk-11-jdk

Configure VSCode Extensions

  1. Launch vscode: code &
  2. Click Package button
  3. Search for "Flutter"
  4. Click "Install"
  5. Search for "Dart"
  6. Make sure the dart extension is installed as well (It should be a dependency for Flutter)

Install Android Studio

  • sudo snap install android-studio --classic

  • Open Android Studio from the Activities area in Ubuntu

  • Do not import settings

  • Move the the installer choosing the Standard install

  • Once the installer is done, click Finish

  • Android Studio should remain open, if not open it.

  • Click Configure in the bottom right Configure->SDK-Manager

  • Select the version of android that corresponds to a device that you own (If you want to debug on that device). I had trouble using the Android 11 (R) version, but had good luck with Android 10 (Q)... YMMV

  • Make sure you have the required SDK Tools

    • Leave anything that comes checked
    • Check Android SDK Command-line Tools (latest)

  • Click OK

  • If prompted, accept the terms and conditions and proceed with installing any needed SDKs

From the main Android Studio startup page, Click Configure->Plugins Install the "flutter" plugin.

Setup an Android Emulator

  • Launch Android Studio->Configure->AVD Manager
  • Downloaded the neede image for the Pixel (Or whatever device)
  • Make sure that your VM has Nested virtualization (VT-X) Enabled or you will need to use a physical device to debug.

Flutter Doctor setup

Open a terminal and run flutter doctor and handle any errors that may remain in your installation.

I had to do the following

  • flutter config --android-studio-dir=/snap/android-studio/current/android-studio

  • flutter doctor --android-licenses Then accept any licenses needed

  • It is okay that Android Studio plugins are not recognized

  • Close all IDEs

  • Launch vscode

  • Open the root directory of our GitHub project
