device_lab 0.2.0

Preview your Flutter app on any device without a simulator: 149 devices, foldables with real display features, free-form resolutions, and golden-test integration.

0.2.0

• enabled now defaults to !kReleaseMode instead of true, so the preview cannot ship to production by accident and there is nothing to remember to turn off.
• The selected device, orientation and fold posture are now remembered. initialDeviceId became a seed rather than an override, so hiding the preview or rebuilding the widget no longer snaps back to it.
• Added DeviceLabStorage, with SessionDeviceLabStorage as the default. Implement it over SharedPreferences or similar to persist across restarts, or pass storage: null to opt out.
• Exposed DeviceLabController.defaultDeviceId and the storage keys.

0.1.1

• Document the public API so the reference on pub.dev is usable.
• Add screenshots of the preview, a flip-phone cover screen and the hidden state.

0.1.0

• Initial release.
• 149 devices across 16 vendors: iPhone (including iPhone Duo and the 18 Pro line), Pixel, Galaxy S/A, book-folds, flip phones, iPads, Android tablets, laptops and monitors, watches, TV, plus generic resolution presets from 320x568 to 4K.
• naturalOrientation on DeviceScreen, so landscape-natural screens such as the iPhone Duo's inner display resolve size, safe area and hinge axis correctly; safeArea / safeAreaRotated are relative to it.
• Hinge axis rotates with the device, so a book fold becomes a horizontal separator when held in the other orientation.
• Real DisplayFeature simulation: folds, hinges, notches, Dynamic Island and punch holes are injected into MediaQuery, so DisplayFeatureSubScreen, dialog placement and two-pane layouts behave as they do on the device.
• Fold postures (cover / half-open / unfolded) with per-posture screens.
• Free-form resolutions for any viewport not in the catalog.
• Runtime catalog extension via DeviceCatalog.register and DeviceCatalog.loadJson, so new hardware does not require a package release.
• Runtime "show original screen" toggle: hides the frame, tools and MediaQuery override so the app fills the window. Driven by the tools-panel button, Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+D, a draggable restore pill, or DeviceLab.togglePreview(context). App state survives the toggle.
• The restore pill docks to the nearest corner when dragged, Flutter Inspector style, and its corner is configurable via restoreButtonAlignment and persists across toggles.
• TargetPlatform follows the selected device, so scroll physics and page transitions match.
• Accessibility simulation: text scale, bold text, high contrast, invert colors, disabled animations, screen-reader navigation.
• package:device_lab/device_lab_testing.dart reuses the same specs in flutter_test via pumpOnDevice and goldenNameFor.
