FAQPage Schema
How do I create a Flet extension for a third-party Flutter package?

You create a Flet extension by wrapping the external Flutter package, covering dependency selection, version pinning, Python/Flutter integration, documentation, tests, and CI updates.

What is the process for integrating pub.dev packages into a Flet app?

Integrating pub.dev packages involves wrapping the external Flutter package in a flet_* extension, defining properties and events, and mapping the Flutter API to Python for seamless Flet application integration.

Can I use this to add any external Flutter charting library to my Flet project?

Yes, you can add external Flutter charting libraries by generating a custom flet_chart package, mapping the pub.dev dependency, configuring compatibility, and integrating it into your Flet project.

Does building Flet extensions require manual Flutter and Python compatibility checks?

Building Flet extensions automates compatibility checks between Flutter and Python, handling version pinning and dependency selection so you can safely wrap third-party pub.dev packages without manual verification.

What's the best way to handle dependency management and CI updates for Flet extensions?

The best way to handle dependency management for Flet extensions is using a structured approach that covers version pinning, compatibility checks, and automated CI updates during the package development lifecycle.
