Convex Flutter support

Open welfvh opened this issue 8 months ago • 9 comments

I'd love to switch my Flutter app from Supabase to Convex, but the current workarounds don't seem to preserve the integration & simplicity that makes convex appealing. Is this on the roadmap anytime soon?

We unfortunately don't have the bandwidth to prioritize Flutter right now, but we'd love to hear more about what workarounds you've tried and what improvements could be made. Also, we welcome contributions! It's great to hear enthusiasm for switching to Convex :)

Someone in the community made a package - that you can take a look at here https://discord.com/channels/1019350475847499849/1156694974000283648/1347934449832165386

I haven't tried it myself.

This guy is actually making one. Would love if the convex team officially help, guide and make this a complete integration support.

Are there any updates on Flutter support? We're currently deciding between Convex and Appwrite, and the absence of Flutter support is the only factor holding us back from choosing Convex.

There's no official Flutter support for Convex yet and the Convex team hasn't audited the community solution above.

Convex deployments do expose their APIs over HTTP, so for some things you may be able to use native data fetching? But subscripting to reactive queries would require something like the JS or Rust client libraries or something wrapping the Rust client like the Convex Swift and Kotlin clients do, which looks like might be what the community library above does.

It would be really great if the Convex team dedicated themselves to the Dart/Flutter platform. They would certainly have many customers.

Yes, I am fedup with supabase but convex is not supporting flutter officially for which I am eagerly waiting.

this is the best one which I have found https://github.com/dickermoshe/convex-dart, works with better-auth, build_runner out of the box
