About Flutter Bunny CLI

Flutter Bunny CLI is a tool designed to streamline Flutter application development by providing an opinionated approach to project structure, architecture, and code generation.

The Story Behind Flutter Bunny CLI

Flutter Bunny CLI was created to solve common challenges in Flutter development:

  1. Inconsistent Project Structure: Every developer had a different way of organizing their Flutter projects
  2. Boilerplate Code: Flutter development often requires writing repetitive boilerplate code
  3. Architecture Decisions: Many teams struggle with choosing and implementing an architecture pattern
  4. Maintenance Overhead: As projects grow, maintaining a clean and consistent codebase becomes challenging
  5. Increase Productivity: Developers should spend less time on setup and more time on building features

The goal was to create a tool that would provide sensible defaults and best practices while still allowing flexibility for customization.

Core Principles

Flutter Bunny CLI is built on these core principles:

1. Convention Over Configuration

We provide sensible defaults so you can focus on building features rather than deciding on folder structures and patterns.

2. Best Practices First

All templates and generated code follow Flutter best practices, ensuring your project starts with a solid foundation.

3. Flexibility

While opinionated, Flutter Bunny CLI allows for customization to match your team's specific needs.

4. Developer Experience

The CLI is designed to be intuitive and helpful, with clear error messages and guidance.

Project Status

Flutter Bunny CLI is currently in beta. We're actively developing new features and improvements while maintaining a stable core that's ready for everyday use.

Roadmap

Our roadmap includes:

  • Template Marketplace: A platform for sharing and discovering custom templates
  • Plugin System: Extend Flutter Bunny CLI with plugins
  • Web UI: A web interface for managing your projects
  • VS Code Extension: Integration with popular IDEs
  • More Architecture Patterns: Support for additional architecture patterns
