Slink Application

A new Flutter project that integrates Firebase for backend functionalities and utilizes Dart for the application logic.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Before running this project, ensure you have the following installed:

Make sure you've set up your Flutter development environment properly.

Project Setup

  1. Clone the repository

    git clone <repository_url>
cd slink_application

  2. Install dependencies
    Run this command to get all the packages listed in the pubspec.yaml file:

    flutter pub get

  3. Clean the build cache
    Before building, it’s a good practice to clear any cached builds:

    flutter clean

  4. Configure Firebase
    Make sure Firebase is correctly set up in your project. If not done, follow the official Firebase setup guide for Flutter.

    You’ll need to add the appropriate google-services.json or GoogleService-Info.plist to your android/app or ios/Runner directories respectively.

  5. Run the app
    After setting up Firebase, run the app on your device or emulator:

    flutter run

Useful Commands

  • Run on a specific platform
    To target a specific platform (iOS, Android, Web, Desktop):

    flutter run -d <platform>
