State management options for Flutter

Pick the option that fits your app:
  • BLoC – Great for apps with complex logic and data flows.
  • GetX – Lightweight and fast, ideal for quick builds.
  • Provider – Simple and reliable for most apps.
  • Riverpod – A flexible upgrade to Provider, great for scaling.
  • Without state management – Use only widgets (best for basic apps or prototypes).

Preview and compare with Figma

See your app and the original Figma design side by side - no switching tabs, no guesswork.

Preview your app next to your Figma design

What if your design looks slightly off?Sometimes the generated app might not perfectly match your original Figma design – but don’t worry. You can fine-tune the UI using chat.Example: Shadow behind the doctor cards is different from design
  • What you see? There is red shadow behind the doctor cards.
  • What Figma shows? There is no shadow.
  • Fix it with a chat message like:
    “Remove the shadow from behind the doctor cards on the Doctor search screen”
Want to explore more? Write in the chat interface to tweak your design or see what else chat can do.
