Flutter Production Boilerplate
A flutter project containing bloc, flutter_lints, hive, easy_translations and more!
This repository is the starting point for my personal projects. If you have any suggestions or improvements feel free to let me know. The project strives to implement best practices recommended by Google and other developers. These best practices include but are not limited to:
- Using BLOC & Cubit for state management.
- Using Flutter Lints for stricter linting rules.
- Using Hive for platform independent storage that also works for web.
- Project structure, const constructors, extracted widgets and many more…

Theme
You can customize your brand colors in the lib/config/theme.dart file.
The project useses colors from TailwindCSS. As primary swatch the indigo color palette is used while for the text the gray color palette is used. Feel free to replace those values with your own.
In order to get a smooth transition for the text colors it is necessary to override each text type in the TextTheme.
