Flutter Base Kit 🚀

One-click configuration of project foundation using best practices and time-tested templates

Create new Flutter applications with pre-configured architecture: routing, DI, networking, localization, theming, and much more.

Why Flutter Base Kit?

• ⚡ Quick Start - don't waste time setting up architecture
• 🏗️ Ready Structure - DI, routing, API, themes, localization
• 📱 Best Practices - proven architecture from real projects
• 🔧 CLI Tool - create projects with a single command

Installation

Activate package globally

dart pub global activate flutter_base_kit

brew install flutter
flutter doctor

sudo snap install flutter --classic
flutter doctor

How to use

Option 1: Create a new project

# Create an app
flutter_base_kit create my_app --template app

# Create a package
flutter_base_kit create my_package --template package

# Create a package with tester
flutter_base_kit create my_project --template package+tester

Option 2: Add to existing project

# Navigate to your project folder
cd my_existing_project

# Initialize Flutter Base Kit
flutter_base_kit init

Option 3: Add new modules to existing project

# Add a complete module (API → Service → Cubit → Page)
flutter_base_kit module --name user_store

🛠️ Ready components

• Routing - AutoRoute for navigation
• DI - GetIt + Injectable for dependency management
• API - Dio + Retrofit for server communication
• State - Provider + Bloc for state management
• Themes - Flexible theming with light/dark support
• Localization - Support for English and Spanish languages
• Code Generation - Freezed, JSON, routes are generated automatically

🧩 Module Generator

• Complete Module Creation - Generate API → Service → Cubit → Page structure
• Automatic Naming - Converts snake_case to PascalCase automatically
• Build Runner Integration - Automatically runs code generation after module creation

🎨 UI Components

• AppKitLoader - Global loading widget with customizable presets
• AppDialog - Comprehensive dialog system
• AppSnackBar - Enhanced snackbar with error, success, and info variants
• AppBuilder - Reactive widget builder with built-in loading/error states

Command examples

# Create an app
flutter_base_kit create my_app --template app --org com.mycompany

# Create a package
flutter_base_kit create my_package --template package

# Create a monorepo (package + tester)
flutter_base_kit create my_library --template package+tester --org com.mycompany

# Add to existing project
flutter_base_kit init

# Add new module
flutter_base_kit module --name user_store

Next steps

After creating a project:

1. Navigate to project folder:

   cd my_app
   

2. Install dependencies:

   flutter pub get
   

3. Generate code:

   flutter packages pub run build_runner build
   

4. Run the app:

   flutter run
   

Useful commands

# Show help
flutter_base_kit --help

# Generate code (in project)
flutter packages pub run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs

# Create a new module
flutter_base_kit module --name user_store

Template types

• app - Full Flutter application with all components
• package - Flutter package/plugin for code reuse
• package+tester - Package + separate testing application

Command options

• --org - Organization identifier (e.g., com.mycompany)
• --template - Template type (app, package, package+tester)
• --name - Module name (must be in lowercase or snake_case format, e.g., user, user_store, product_item)
• --help - Show help

Module naming rules

Module name must be in lowercase or snake_case format (e.g., user, user_store, product_item)
