flutter-plugins

SKILL.md

Scaffolds Flutter plugins with native interop, method channels, FFI integration, and federated architectures.

Generates standard plugins, FFI plugins, or federated multi-package architectures based on native code requirements and team structure

Configures Android v2 embedding lifecycle interfaces, platform-specific native environments (Kotlin/Java, Swift/Objective-C), and method channel registration

Implements package-separated federated plugins with app-facing and platform-specific implementation packages for decoupled multi-team development

Includes decision tree logic to determine plugin type: FFI-only, method channels, combined FFI+channels, or federated setup

flutter-plugin-generator

Goal

Scaffolds and configures Flutter plugin packages, handling standard method channels, FFI integrations, and federated plugin architectures. It configures platform-specific native code environments, implements Android v2 embedding lifecycle interfaces, and establishes platform interface packages.

Decision Logic

Use the following decision tree to determine the plugin architecture and template:

Does the plugin require C/C++ native code via dart:ffi?

Yes: Use --template=plugin_ffi.

Note: FFI plugins support bundling native code and method channel registration, but not method channels themselves.

No: Proceed to step 2.

Does the plugin require BOTH dart:ffi and Method Channels?

Yes: Use --template=plugin (Non-FFI). You must configure FFI manually within the standard plugin structure.

No: Proceed to step 3.

Will the plugin be developed by multiple teams or require highly decoupled platform implementations?

Yes: Implement a Package-Separated Federated Plugin (App-facing package, Platform Interface package, Platform Implementation packages).

No: Implement a standard monolithic plugin.
