Absolutely thrilled to have my first freelance #flutter app in the Google Play Store. iOS version on its way. This app took around 20 days, but the designs are not mine! DM me if you'd like help with an app.

Studies do suggest that people remember more if they handwrite it.

But, I think that's kind of irrelevant if nobody actually handwrites anyway.
I wouldn't, even if it did increase memory retention

Question your first answer. Why should kids learn this? It's a lot of effort. Is it a skill they will really need?

I should give you a heads up. A lot of answers are like the response you get to hitting your knee with a hammer.
It feels like a given that kids should learn how to handwrite, but seriously, how often do you actually write something with a pen? For me, it's maybe once a year

So, my conclusion at this point, is that it is not possible to do true dependency injection of Flutter widgets.
I'd really like to hear from anyone who thinks otherwise...
I do realise this hinges on definition to some extent, but the distinction is important.

In #flutter you can build services with DI, but because of the tree structure it's essentially impossible to do DI unless you pass dependencies through the constructors of the widgets
If you request your dependencies via the BuildContext, like Provider, this is service location

DI vs Service Location
DI is what happens when a class receives its dependencies (usually via constructor) and service location is when code requests a service.

I would put it exactly like this as well. You can always refactor more abstractions in if you need them, but putting them there just because you might need them creates unnecessary work at the beginning.

In some ways this Todo sample explicitly avoids those patterns github.com/davidfowl/Todo. Write the code required for the scenario to work, then refactor as needed when more scenarios arise. Build abstractions as they reveal themselves.

Over engineering is on the developer maturity journey. You *have* to go through a period where you overengineer things so you can appreciate simplicity again.

Blindly applying patterns bugs me ALOT. I don't subscribe to the dogma, I don't write code that way...

I lean very heavily towards YAGNI and readable code with minimal abstractions until needed. I appreciate that every situation is different, but like anything it's hard to appreciate the benefits when the "scale" problem isn't evident.

But, most importantly, stop getting sucked in by pundits who push you down a path that's not right for your team or practices. Take the simple approach and stop listening to snake oil salesmen. Piling complexity on your app won't get you to market quicker or more reliably

Microservices as an architecture exists and there are some large orgs with large systems where it's the right choice. If you work for one of these orgs, you will know.
For everyone else, BaaS is an easy way to get your scalable app running quickly, and with the option to expand

You found that nobody was even doing microservices because nobody even understood what that meant.
I watched teams flail around trying to build something they knew nothing about and waste hundreds of thousands on failed projects.

insisting that every app that fails to adopt the pattern will slow to a crawl and fail in the market place
It was almost impossible to get a .net backend job here in Australia that wasn't there to convert an old app to microservices
But, when you scratched beneath the surface...

This isn't a tweet about microservices per se. There are microservices success stories and I'm not suggesting microservices are inherently bad. What was bad was the sudden jolt from building simple back-ends to some foreign architecture that nobody was ready for, and...

Can we finally admit that the #microservices craze was harmful to the software industry?
Sure, they are good in theory, but most teams end up with unmaintainable, slow, unreliable, hard-to-change monstrosities
We now use "modular monolith" as consolation, but I still say back-end

If you want to learn how to build apps that scale and are easy to build from scratch, look into to Firebase, AWS Amplify and other Documentdb BaaS solutions. When you need more control, add Web APIs on top with your favorite language on serverless containers.
