The Flutter journey from a Personal App to a Successful Production App
summary
A personal companion app is built with Flutter and powered by Firebase, reaches 100+ daily active users, and ships cross‑platform (Android, iOS) with hero animations, charts and push notifications planned. Specific issues include manual localization, resource files handled via custom Dart maps, iOS App Store rejections and TestFlight use, keyboard input solved by sliders, JIT vs AOT performance differences, crash reporting via Crashlytics after overriding the ErrorWidget, and future work to parse game screenshots.
