riverpod-pull-to-refresh

To implement pull-to-refresh in a Flutter app using Riverpod, integrate Riverpod's AsyncValue with the RefreshIndicator widget to manage loading spinners and trigger automatic data updates upon swiping down.

Riverpod handles async data states during a RefreshIndicator update by managing loading, refreshing, data display, and error states gracefully, ensuring previous data remains visible until the new asynchronous data successfully loads.

The best way to display previous data while refreshing a list with Riverpod is using AsyncValue to retain the current data state in the UI while the RefreshIndicator spinner shows the ongoing asynchronous refresh operation.

Yes, you can use RefreshIndicator with Riverpod for real-time scrollable list updates, enabling users to manually swipe down to fetch the latest data while the state management system handles the asynchronous loading and error display.

Your Riverpod AsyncValue might lose previous data if the refresh logic does not correctly preserve the previous state, whereas properly integrating AsyncValue with RefreshIndicator ensures previous data displays during the refresh cycle.
