SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides authoritative guidance for architecting Flutter applications using MVVM, clean architecture layers (UI, Data, Domain), and a feature-first project structure to improve maintainability, scalability, and team collaboration.

Core Features & Use Cases

MVVM-based UI architecture guidance, including ViewModels and Views separation
Feature-first organization showing how to group by business features with data/domain/presentation layers
Guidance on layering, patterns, and best practices for scalable Flutter apps
Use Case: Architect a new Flutter app with 5+ features and shared UI components

Quick Start

Create a new Flutter project and structure it under features/ with at least one feature (e.g., todos/), implement MVVM with a corresponding presentation/viewmodel and data layer, and adopt feature-first organization.

FAQPage Schema

How do I structure a Flutter app using feature-first organization?▼

To structure a Flutter app using feature-first organization, group code into business feature modules under a features/ directory, such as todos/, with each module containing its own presentation, viewmodel, and data layers for scalability.

What is the best way to separate UI and business logic in Flutter?▼

The best way to separate UI and business logic in Flutter is applying the MVVM pattern. It isolates Views in the UI layer from ViewModels in the domain layer, ensuring scalable architecture and maintainable code across complex application features.

How does clean architecture apply to Flutter app development?▼

Clean architecture applies to Flutter development by dividing the project into UI, Domain, and Data layers. This structure enforces separation of concerns, guides data flow, and establishes scalable patterns for large multi-feature applications.

Can I use MVVM with clean architecture layers for a scalable Flutter app?▼

Yes, you can use MVVM with clean architecture layers to build a scalable Flutter app. The pattern maps ViewModels to the Domain layer and Views to the UI layer, aligning perfectly with feature-first modules for 5+ features.

When do I need feature-first project structure in Flutter?▼

You need a feature-first project structure in Flutter when architecting apps with 5+ features and shared UI components. It groups code by business capability, preventing tangled dependencies and improving team collaboration across modules.
