Revving up your Flutter IDE
summary
Demo compares Android Studio and VS Code side-by-side, showing the shared Dart analysis server driving code completion <100ms, errors-as-you-type, and refactorings; shows embedded emulator, Flutter DevTools and pub-package DevTools extensions (provider example), and recommends learning keybindings like Cmd-Shift-A / Cmd-P for actions and file search. Success metrics: code completion under 100 ms, hot reload under a second. Ends with a live LLM-based fix that calls Gemini cloud to auto-repair broken Dart widget brackets (Gemini bracket fixer).
