Create new project

f c myapp

It's similar to using command flutter create myapp.

To create a Flutter project with some predefined dependencies, you can list the dependencies after your project name like this:

f c myapp path intl http provider 

The above command will automatically create myapp project in the myapp directory, then automatically install all the required dependencies (in this example: path, intl, http, and provider).

Feel free to add as many dependencies as you want.

You can also pass other arguments, such as project name, the organization name, or to specify the programming language used for the native platform:

f c --p myapp --org dev.flutter --a kotlin --i swift myapp path intl http provider

To run a Flutter project, you can use this command:

f r

It's similar to using command flutter run.

f rp

To run project as flutter run --release, use:

f rr

You can combine -v at the end of each command to show additional diagnostic informations.

f r -v

f b apk
f b arr
