Working on a mobile "Hello World." with Flutter. 🀩

Okay, I've been building the other stuff for 30 years and mobile stuff for 30 hours, but still.

Supposedly, I should be able to compile for Android and for iOS, which would be cool.

Okay, it's actually a gigantic Alexandria Native prototype e-reader, with highlights and kind 1111 comments and zaps and emoji reactions and a kind 11 discussion board. But I'll use it to write "hello world" In the discussion board and that also counts.

It _is_ crazy, I agree. That's why I deleted the whole thing, except the Gherkin, and am slowly rebuilding

Okay, inching forward. Have to intervene and rewrite stuff all the time, which is extremely annoying because I have written Java in years, but oh well.

Best I can do is the search bar. πŸ˜‚

I looked at Kotlin and decided to go with Flutter.

Silberengel @Laeserin - 5mo

Yeah, I started out with the dart library, but had to fall "out" to Flutter because I had so much weird stuff that he wasn't covering. I looked into Kotlin, as that's normally the one I heard about, but I'm rolling with the dart.

It doesn't look like much, but it took all evening. πŸ˜‚ https://image.nostr.build/6059f898111a1972381cd8fd64ac7d8471a7d437c23765fc3d06fc03d03aedc2.png https://image.nostr.build/6bb586f314a40876c70b34ce702d9a3d5e7744a1f87db467cb563431354717e0.png https://image.nostr.build/0bff978fa84b29a65fb8f2bb83d49414b6e4fda1d7a4f1d6ee45b8ee40a06459.png

Well, first I made a completely different prototype, installed about a gazillion components and libraries, and then wrote a book-long Gherkin spec.

The first pass whiz-banged out a full app, where nothing really worked and I had zero idea what the code did. But that was causing me to have a full autistic meltdown a la OMG WHAT DOES IT DO?! 😱 vibe-coded panic, so I really deleted the whole thing and am πŸ‘£ baby-setting forward, so that I can actually figure out what is doing what and learn to read the syntax and understand the file arrangement. I have no idea how y'all can stand building things you don't understand. Had me like

I can't, reading the code in this repo made me have to get up and step away from my desk XD

Silberengel @Laeserin - 5mo

I can actually read most of it, now, sort of vaguely, but the first pass might as well have been Greek. That literally upset me. πŸ˜‚ Bad vibes, man.

XD yeah. My issue is unknown-unknowns introduced, just the perfectionist in me tho.

I'm testing the Flutter on Chrome Desktop and Android Mobile Phone, and there's a lot of overlap, but some mobile design decisions don't make sense on a larger screen. And I had to scratch my initial database choice, so that it works well on all platforms.

The style is more GRW, than Alex, but I found the muted Alex style didn't look appealing on the phone monitor, and vice versa.

Silberengel @Laeserin - 5mo

Hard to break out of the browser sandbox. That's why we're going to add the Tauri on GRW and I'm doing Flutter on Alex. Need native support for this stuff. But browser is always the first step, IMO.

Yeah, sort of weird.
