I am installing flutter for the first time in my laptop. When I ran flutter doctor it shows that VSCode is not installed, even though I have been using it for a while now.
I already have installed VSCode in my laptop but flutter doctor shows that it isn't installed. Ig its got something to do with the path. I'm not rly sure, kindly help....
As you know, you can make desktop applications with Flutter as well. Therefore Flutter need Visual Studio and "Desktop Development with C++" tool. Flutter doctor terminal says which version you need to install as well.
The warning message means you didn't installed Visual Studio (not visual-studio code).
You can download and install visual-studio to build windows app. Make sure to install Desktop development with C++.
You can follow this to build Windows app

I am trying to run my first flutter app emulator, which is having complications at various level, I have tried too much but could not make through it, here is what I have tried.
On trying to click on Create Android Emulator in Visual studio code, the dart extension shows following:-

I don't know why it is happening as on checking, it is present:-

I would like to point out here that I am not able to understand what I have to put in flutter --android-sdk {path}.
Also on running flutter doctor, it shows the absence of visual studio despite the fact that I have it in place(that is why I could take the first screenshot). One thing I would like to point out here is that my vscode is in C drive while my flutter-test folder(which contains everything related to flutter) is in D drive:

Please help so that I can further follow along to create an android app. Also ask if any further information is needed.
You need to know that having Android Studio Installed will solve the majority of issues caused.
STEPS:
Clean out all your Flutter, Dart and Android installation
Download Android Studio from official website (the latest version is Android Studio Electric Eel)
After the installation of Android Studio, open it and add the flutter and dart plugins
Now download flutter and follow the installation steps.
After adding flutter, go to Edit the system environment on your PC and add JAVA_HOME variable with C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jbr. Noticed I used jbr not jre because with Android Studio Electric Eel jbr replaced jre.
Afterward, open new terminal and run flutter doctor --android-licenses
WHAT DID WE DO ABOVE?
We cleaned our installation and downloaded the latest Flutter version which has Dart downloaded automatically. Next, we Installed Android Studio Electric Eel which has Java and Android settings in-build. This way we solve 99% of the problems here: The last thing is to create an Emulator using Android Studio not VSC.
For future help, please comment below. Bye
I have my flutter in D drive and Vscode in C drive. So, when running flutter doctor on windows command prompt, it's showing that vscode is not installed. Is there a way to correct this problem without having to install vscode in D drive or changing the path of flutter to C drive. I installed it in D drive as my C drive is quite full.
I think you have read it wrong, It should be asking about the Visual Studio not VS-Code. Both IDEs are different.
In flutter doctor, you are getting this error because whenever you need to develop Flutter app in VS-Code, you will still require some tools like SDK tools or some other dependencies. And VS-Code dosen't give you those dependencies out of the box. Therefore you will require either Android Studio or Visual Studio.
So If you have already installed either Visual Studio or Android Studio, then you can start developing a Flutter App without any worries or errors of those Flutter doctor command.
for some reason, I don't want to install android studio(one of them is I don't have enough space for now) but instead, I want to work with vscode and nox(or genymotion). and my question is: Is it possible to connect vscode and an (android and ios) emulator to see the result? in other words, I want to connect the nox as an emulator to vscode and see the result inside of it.
Android studio take too much space and even my computer also become hot when open Android studio. But what I did I installed Android studio and Android emulator but I don't use Android studio rather I use VScode.
So as far as I know you need Android studio to install emulator then you can use VScode with it.
Finally, I found out how I can connect Genymotion to the VS Code(without Installing Android Studio).in total SDK manager wasn't installed on my laptop, so at first, I installed it. and then
Platform Tools (ADB & Fastboot)
Install Platform
Add System Image
Install Build Tools
but wait I just name the steps I've done. you can follow this article on this link to get more details.
and finally, instead of installing an emulator, I used Genymotion with Flutter in VS Code, which you can follow in this article to get more information. Click here
Can I know why my error popup font is breaking?
When I Run the Flutter Doctor
this appears, and I understand that I didn't add the directory to the Envir-Path.
But First I want to solve the error notation.
My envir. is Windows11 and using the latest version of Android Studio and also Installed the flutter plugin
also installed Git.
I had the same problem. I uninstalled git and reinstalled it from https://git-scm.com/downloads. However, it still did not fix the problem. Then, I right clicked on Android Studio and clicked on Run as Administrator. Apparently, it fixed my problem.
Also, run flutter doctor in your terminal as it says and install anything you have not installed yet.
I want to learn and script Flutter and I installed the vscode and also extensions of Flutter. But I do not know the continuation of the process of installing such as showing the emulator and stuff.
How to solve this problem?
For Android setup, you need to install Android Studio and its plugins about Dart and Flutter, and for iOS setup, install Xcode too. And then you can start an emulator or a simulator. For more info, read the official document.
