Did you have a chance to test this PR?

Sorry for the delay, been busy. Taking a look now, seems like there is a conflict with google play service versions, getting Unable to merge dex

[mdanics]

Looks like addingmultiDexEnabled true to defaultConfig in /android/app/build.gradle fixes the issue for me.

Before merging, want to find out if this is what you had to do to get it to work for you. Ideally I don't want to enable something I don't completely know what it does.

Other than that, everything seems to be working fine - thank you for going through and updating the breaking changes for updated packages.

Thanks for looking over the PR and this app! Let me check to see if I had to enable multidex, will get back to you on this. Also, there's been so many changes since this PR I need to make sure everything is still up to date.

[rayliverified]

Just tested and you're right. I need to enable multidex in order to build. Done!

[mdanics]

Looks good! Thanks for the PR

Thank you for the quick merge! I'm learning how to build Flutter apps and your example is really helpful. There's some parts that don't work that well and if I figure out how to do it better, I'll make sure to send a PR.

I'm currently tackling Firebase login and authentication. Fluttergram often displays the SignIn screen even when you're already logged which isn't desirable. I'm looking at how to avoid that!.

[mdanics]

Hm yeah thats not ideal. I haven't experienced that which makes it hard for me to look into it, but I agree the login logic isn't the best.

Do you have a way we can talk privately? Would love to talk Flutter and your experience with it.
