Does Drift support managing database migrations for Flutter apps?▼

Yes, Drift supports managing database migrations for Flutter apps. This Skill guides you through the implementation of persistent local storage, including handling schema updates and managing migrations safely.

Can I use SQLite for structured data caching in a Flutter application?▼

Yes, you can use SQLite for structured data caching in a Flutter application. By utilizing Drift, the app handles caching for offline access, ensuring data is reliably saved and retrieved.

Why use Drift for data persistence instead of other Flutter storage options?▼

Drift provides robust, relational data persistence for structured storage, making it ideal for complex user settings and offline caching. It offers reliable querying and migration management compared to simpler key-value stores.
