I change IDE Android Studio to Visual Code on Mac Big Sur

 
Visual Code on Mac Big Sur


It's been a month since I used Visual Code as new editor to create or develop flutter apps. I really like it because of the lightweight that I feel mostly. I haven't had a problem so far, but some little issue where I can't add widget using shortcut key like Android Studio does using alt+enter. So I need to do it manually with clicking hint lamp symbol then I choose adding parent widget or stream builder or removing it from parent tree. It's a little bit annoying but for me the performence is more important. I haven't searched the way Android did but later maybe.

And the second thing is about Mac Big Sur that I've installed on my macbook air '17. Before I run Mac OS Catalina of course. There's one headache issue about NVRM SSD. It's when my mac will restart randomly when doing heavy things like compiling or opening many tab browser. It's so weird I tried to reinstall my mac many times. And the result is the same, I think I need to replace the SSD with old one because Now the SSD is updated 256GB and different type I forget the name. But the old one that this macbook own is Samsung SSD. but It's already solved with removing RAM and inserting again.

BTW I still installed Android Studio because I need it for Android testing purpose and emulator. What I feel when upgrading Mac Big Sur is the compile time a little bit more fast. I don't install games or editor video or photo. So the size space only for development and it doesn't take much space so far. 

And the next thing I like it's the simplicity. In this Visual Studio edit on the left where it's consistent when opening tab you can see on the right not on top like Android Studio. Even I opened two Visual Studio one for reference and the other one is where I work for. And It's fantastic, it doesn't effect the mac performance and I listen to some music video on youtube. And It doesn't have any problem.

But when doing building apk or ios bundle to release. It doesn't come from IDE it's from your computer. So before when want to release our app on app store or playstore we need to some commands for building the app. For iOS is "flutter build ios --release" and for Android is "flutter build appbundle/apk --release" you can take a look on the documentation for detail. But mostly that's what I did after finishing app for testing on release on firebase app distribution I did that. And what I can say is for building ios to make it IPA it takes much time unlike Android apk. 

And then you need to run xcode and doing archive again to send it on appstore or making IPA file then distributing it. And so that's it guys that I want to share this month. Hopefully I can share every month because of the busy work that happened a few weeks lately. Thanks for visiting my simple blog. Sorry If my writing makes you confused haha 😁.

How to restart the app with flutter Android and iOS

Image
Hi all, welcome back to my blog. And today lesson is about flutter again. I have a little problem when trying to resart the app directly from the app. So what I mean is I want to restart the app after users do something. Because if I don't do it, the app flow will be bad and the data that I want to refresh will be failed. So in my use case in my app is I want to restart the app after user sign in or sign out in my app. The reason is I need to restart all of the previous state. That's the easy way I can do, and I have some problems with camera plugin. The problem is happened only on android, so when you click sign in google/facebook, there'll be new page native from their sdk and making the app in inactive status. That'll will make camera bug, and it will make the app crash.

How to have ConstraintLayout inside ScrollView and ScrollView inside ConstraintLayout Android

Hai guys, last week I found a unique way to create layout Android look. You can see the title, that's actually what I want. I know it sounds weird but sometimes we need to create something that we might curious if it's in o n the internet or not. Why I'm using ConstraintLayout because it's almost same with iOS xcode. There is constraint where you can set top constraint, bottom constraint, left constraint and right constraint. So it's easy for me to design like what I want. But it's personal, it depends on you too. And fortunely you can combine ScrollView and ConstraintLayout. Because you need to worry when the height of your layout is high than real device height. And if you don't use UIScrollview your component will be unseen when the height of device is more small than layout that we design. Like my app, I want to use ConstraintLayout and ScrollView together. Maybe it can do with RelativeLayout or others layout. But something special that I want i
