I have a fully functional app. I use barcode_scan in the app, but when called on the web app, it does not launch. Any help?
barcode_scan doesn't claim support for flutter web as you can see on the package site. As can be seen in the description, this package simply provides a wrapper for existing barcode scanning packages for both iOS and android.

I am currently developing a flutter Chat application that I would like to add to an existing website developed in React. But I'm not sure how to do that or even if it's possible.
I found articles about adding flutter to android or iOS apps. But I found nothing that could help me with integrating a flutter package into a website.
We are building an application in Flutter, which is composed of an SDK (no UI Code) and a Flutter UI, using the SDK.We have now the requirement to provide the SDK for other, native target platforms (iOS, Android, Web, JVM) and use it in existing applications. As far as we have understood this is possible for iOS and Android. But is this also possible (or planned) for Web and JVM? We simply want to minimise the effort to build the similar SDK in various platform specific technologies.
Thank you!
You can build your Flutter app targeting web https://docs.flutter.dev/development/platform-integration/web/faq#is-the-web-version-of-flutter-ready-for-production
If you want to target the Desktop then check https://docs.flutter.dev/development/platform-integration/desktop to see if it meets your requirements.
I use the enterprise distribution from Apple for our app. Now I'm creating a simple update system which starts the installation of a new app version.
Therefore I need to call:
var _url ="itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=https://my-url-to-the-plist"
I have done the same in other frameworks (Adobe AIR) with no problem.
In Flutter I use the url_launcher package with no success. The Urls scheme seems not to be supported by Flutter?
Any Ideas to this?
I'm interested in using Flutter primarily for my startup MVP on Web and possibly Android. I see the flutter community has made a lot of widgets but a lot of them are tagged iOS or Android. Since Futter is all about using one codebase is it wrong to assume that these widgets would work on web too? I imagine the setup would be different but similar with a Flutter web app as opposed to a Flutter Android app.
I couldn't find a whole lot about this on the Flutter site. I also know that web is still beta but by the time I'm done with the MVP it'll probably be at stable release or close enough.
Well... It depends. If the widget has some sort of native code the answer is no. In Flutter there are two type of packages: the "normal" package, and the plugin.
The packages are made only of dart code, so there are no bounds to native, and you can use everywhere dart (and Flutter) can run.
The plugins are packages with native code and you can use only on the platform supported by that plugin.
For example the package provider, it's a package, and you can use in every supported platform where dart (and Flutter) can run. But url_launcher, it's a plugin, so you can run only on Android, iOS, and web, but for example on desktop, it will no work.
If the package if you found it's only a widget, you should be able to use on the web.
TLDR: No,a PWA it's a web app, so it can't run Android or iOS specific code.
I want my app to take OTP automatically, In android, we have the SMS retrieval API for that, so how to implement the same thing for IOS and android using flutter
Currently, there is no official Flutter plugin developed by the Flutter team for this. You have two options for this:
Use plugins created by the developer community. Try sms_retriever.
Write your own platform-specific code (e.g. your Android code in Java), and invoke it from Flutter. Read more about this here.
