🛠️ Tech Stack

Architecture and Database

• Clean Architecture: Organizes code into layers for separation of concerns, making it easier to maintain and test.
• Drift (SQL ORM Library): Drift is a powerful and reactive persistence library for Flutter and Dart, designed atop SQLite.
• SQLite: Embedded relational database management system, used locally for storing and querying structured data efficiently.

Frontend Framework

• Flutter: Google’s UI toolkit for building natively compiled applications for mobile, web, and desktop from a single codebase. Offers expressive and flexible UI components.

State Management

• GetX: Lightweight and powerful state management solution for Flutter, providing dependency injection, route management, and more.

Backend Services

• Firebase FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging): Enables reliable delivery of notifications across platforms, keeping users engaged with timely updates.
• Firestore: Flexible, scalable database for mobile, web, and server development, facilitating real-time syncing and offline data access.

Rationale

• Flutter: Enabled us to offer both iOS and Android apps from a single codebase, both of which needed a long overdue update.
• Drift: Drift was chosen for its robust features tailored for Flutter and Dart, including type-safe code generation that enhances reliability by catching errors at compile time. Its reactive data handling capabilities, which convert SQL queries into auto-updating streams, facilitate seamless real-time data updates, ensuring a responsive user interface.
• Clean Architecture: Ensures separation of concerns, making the application more modular and easier to maintain, test, and scale.
• GetX: Provides efficient state management and navigation management, reducing boilerplate.
