Running on MAC and Windows

[joeblew99]

Can someone let me know if this is useful.

I was curious what the UX experience is to run it on a Desktop.
Its actually very useful, because you can run it in full screen, and just use the apps and forget about the real desktop behind it.

also its quick for working on the app because go-flutter has hot reload.

I only had to make minor mods to the main.dart file and add a main_desktop.dart file and break out the "MyApp" class to a new file called mainapp.dart, and get the new main.dart and main_desktop.dart to call it.

• its funny how the Text Editor gets a bit confused when i try to select text.

Makefile:

# wow it works on Mobiles

LIB_NAME=pangolin-desktop
LIB=github.com/dahlia-os/$(LIB_NAME)
LIB_BRANCH=master
LIB_FSPATH=$(GOPATH)/src/$(LIB)

print:
	@echo $(LIB_NAME)

TO get it to work i only had to make these changes.
Because the main.dart is essentially the same, you can run this.

main_desktop.dart:

import 'package:flutter/foundation.dart';
import 'package:flutter/widgets.dart';
import 'mainapp.dart';

void main() {
  debugDefaultTargetPlatformOverride = TargetPlatform.fuchsia;
  runApp(MainApp());
}

main.dart:

//import 'dart:async';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
//import 'package:intl/intl.dart';
import 'mainapp.dart';

void main() => runApp(MainApp());

mainapp.dart:

import 'window_space.dart';
//import 'dart:async';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
//import 'package:intl/intl.dart';
import 'menu.dart';
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';
import 'widgets/system_overlay.dart';
import 'quick_settings.dart';
import 'widgets/toggle.dart';
import 'launcher_toggle.dart';
import 'status_tray.dart';
import 'app_toggle.dart';
import 'launcher.dart';


class MainApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override

....

Yeah, the target platform fuchsia was definitely going to be used when we moved from running it on android to running it on zircon.

You can create a pull request, but we are not focusing on desktop embedders, we are focusing on an actual Dahlia system.

[nmcain]

Could you either create a pull request and have it work on linux rather than macOS?

[joeblew99]

@nmcain I dont have time as working on another project where we use go-flutter to make flutter apps that run on all desktops and web.

https://github.com/winwisely99/main

SO rather than me make a PR, you only need to follow the make file i made above.
It builds for all desktops and mobiles, and the build happens inside docker.

hover is the CLI in golang that does it all

We have officially added desktop platform support as of now for Linux based builds, and on MacOS, windows and Web. Thank you!
