Remove the external comunes-flutter library dependency and replace all its
components with local implementations:
- Utility functions: Created lib/utils/widget_utils.dart with compactWidgets()
and ellipse() functions, replacing the comunes-flutter helpers with modern
Dart null-safety patterns (whereType instead of where(notNull))
- Secret loader: Inlined as lib/utils/secret_loader.dart for loading JSON config
- Layout widgets: Replaced CenteredRow/CenteredColumn with standard Row/Column
with MainAxisAlignment.center
- Intro screens: Copied AppIntroPage and MaterialAppWithIntro locally in
lib/widgets/ with cleaned-up deprecated code patterns
- Button widget: Created lib/widgets/rounded_btn.dart for the RoundedBtn used
in activeFires.dart
Changes span 20 files:
- 5 new utility/widget files created
- Updated imports in 15 files
- Removed path dependency from pubspec.yaml
- All functionality preserved, build verified with flutter pub get
Impact:
- Removes external dependency, simplifying project structure
- Modern Dart patterns (proper null-safety)
- Better code clarity with explicit widget properties
- Easier onboarding (no 'what is comunes-flutter?' questions)
Type Annotation Fixes:
- fireNotificationList.dart: Added DeleteFireNotificationFunction and TapFireNotificationFunction types to _buildRow and _buildSavedFireNotifications parameters
- homePage.dart: Added Object type to catchError handler parameters
- redux/appReducer.dart: Added dynamic type annotation to action parameter
- redux/fetchDataMiddleware.dart: Added explicit type annotations and improved type casting
- redux/reducers.dart: Added dynamic type annotation to action parameter
- redux/userReducer.dart: Added dynamic type annotation to action parameter
Android Build Configuration Updates:
- Updated compileSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion from 34 to 36 to match plugin requirements
- Moved plugins {} block to first position (Gradle 8.14 requirement)
- Added dev.flutter.flutter-gradle-plugin to plugins block for modern Flutter integration
- Removed deprecated useProguard setting, replaced with shrinkResources
- Disabled Jetifier (android.enableJetifier=false) to improve build performance
- Increased JVM heap allocation to 4096M for large project compilation
- Added Kotlin language version 1.8 override for plugin compatibility
- Added ProGuard rules to exclude optional Google Play Core classes
Build Results:
- ✅ APK builds successfully (146MB debug APK)
- ✅ Zero type inference errors detected by dart analyze
- ✅ Kotlin compilation passes
- ✅ R8 minification configured correctly
- ✅ 301 remaining issues are all INFO-level style suggestions (non-blocking)
