Meet FDateTimePicker from Forui 0.21.0: Date and time in a single wheel picker. Arrow-key navigation across wheels, 24-hour mode, and custom intervals for days, hours, and minutes. forui.dev/docs/form/da... @forui.dev #flutterdev #flutter

The price hike will definitely happen as these companies need revenue for their IPOs. Codex recently massively reduced their usage, it’s pretty much bait and switch from every single vendor. The only hope is for open weight models to be good enough.

I think they’re moving towards Claude Code routines. On the Claude Code web, you can trigger routines via GitHub events. Haven’t tried it but could be worth exploring.

That’s how constructors in the official API docs should look.👇 👏 @kawaijoe.com & @mattngeo.bsky.social #flutter #dart #forui

v0.17.0 introduces Controls Lifted vs Managed: You choose where state lives. Keep widgets "dumb" and controlled externally (Lifted), or let them manage themselves (Managed). Migration: It's a big shift, but we've got you. Use dart fix --apply to update automatically.

To be clear: The move to duobaseio/forui is purely a rebrand. The same core team is behind the project, with no changes to our direction or maintenance. Star the new repo here github.com/duobaseio/fo...

🚨 Forui has a new home & a massive update! We've moved to duobaseio/forui and just shipped v0.17.0. This is our biggest architecture shift yet: We’ve introduced Controls for a unified, declarative approach to state (plus the new dot-syntax). 🧵👇

No benchmark is perfect, but really? With that cost and performance 😵

Hot take: 3.7 Sonnet is great but not game changing. An incremental improvement over what we had.

I’ve not personally used watch_it but I’ll definitely check it out! Would love to see if there’s some way Forui can get a deeper integration with other libraries.
