Flutter is a popular open-source mobile application development framework that allows developers to create beautiful, high-performance mobile applications for both iOS and Android platforms (and more). However, as with any development process, writing code can be time-consuming and tedious. Fortunately, there are numerous Flutter packages available that can make programming even more fun, by reducing the amount of boilerplate code required and making development faster. In this article, we will take a look at some of the best Flutter packages that can make your life as a Flutter developer easier.

4. Firestore (cloud database)
Do you need a remote backend but do not want to spend money or time on it to focus on your amazing Flutter app? Then Firebase Firestore is the right choice for you!
Firestore is a cloud-hosted NoSQL database that allows developers to easily store and sync data for their mobile and web applications. With the Firestore package, developers can easily integrate their Flutter applications with Firestore, simplifying the process of reading and writing data. Firestore is free of charge up to a certain usage which is quite high.
5. Riverpod (state management)
Riverpod is a state management package that provides a simple and flexible way to manage the state of your Flutter application. With Riverpod, developers can easily share data between widgets without having to worry about boilerplate code. The package allows you to easily build reactive user interfaces and makes it easy to test your code. Riverpod can be seen as the rewrite of Provider which both have been developed by Remi Rousselet. In contrast to Provider, Riverpod catches all programming errors at compile time and removes nesting which can be annoying in large projects.
6. SharedPreferences (simple local storage)
SharedPreferences is a package that allows you to easily store and retrieve key-value pairs on the user’s device. This package is handy for storing user preferences, such as settings and user-specific data. With SharedPreferences, you can easily store and retrieve data without having to write your own file I/O code.
