I have started learning flutter after 5 years of android dev. And right now i am trying to implement multi modular clean architecture as i used to, when developing android, example of such architecture: https://github.com/android10/Android-CleanArchitecture
And i have ran into two issues i can't solve by on my own.
1) What type of flutter module should i use module/plugin/package? I want to make domian layer as simple as it could be(list of interfaces,mappers and dto's), in android it was written in plain kotlin without any android sdk's usage. It seems like domain layer should be package(because it doesn't have any platform specific code and seems to be the simplest module possible) and data layer should be plugin in case i would be forced to make some platform specific code here, but i am not sure. It would be great to have some suggestions here.
2) Maybe there is a github repo example, as I have shown above? All git repos i have found so far are implementing clean architecture with just folders and this approach always ends up with dependencies mess, loosing all the profit you can get from clean architecture.
Any help is appreciated!
You could pay attention to the library clean_architecture (https://pub.dev/packages/clean_architecture).
It may be possible to implement a clean architecture not by all the rules, but it brings a certain useful result.
In the near future I will add instructions on how to use it

Can we write the Feature files and step definitions in Swift Automation framework using XCUITEST Framework ?Is yes , Any jar files or plugins we need to install ?
I am unable to find much support in this
While this is not an appropriate question for StackOverflow, I will oblige you an answer with Cucumberish. I have used it in the past, it works, but I generally steer clear of third party frameworks as they add a layer of complexity and leave you in the lurch if they lose support.
I have worked a bit with CucumberSwift and got it to work fine, reading German-language Feature files and letting me define steps in Swift using all the functionality that XCUITest provides.
However, we have not adopted this in the end but are writing Feature files in Gherkin and then write ordinary XCTestCases that we link to the Feature files by mentioning Scenario names in comments. We develop the same functionality for three platforms and it was difficult to see how BDD tooling would work across all three or how we could make it work given the resources we have. Like Mike Collins we also felt that running without the complexity of additional frameworks was an added benefit.
Having said this, CucumberSwift seems promising, perhaps check out this discussion about documentation and add to it?
Do you know real open source projects on Flutter using architectures like MVVM, MWWM, MVP, Clean Code Architecture are used?
You could take a look at the code of the example application for the just expired flutter slide puzzle challenge offered by VeryGoodVentures.

It's probably not a programming question and a bit too generic but I can't find any resource about the differences of writing plugin for flutter using Kotlin vs Java. From my research, almost every plugin in pub.dev that I found is written in Java. I don't say Java is bad but I personally prefer Kotlin over Java because of the syntax.
I'm planning to build native code to interact with native libs both on iOS and Android for my project since I couldn't find any plugin that satisfy the project requirements. I'd like to share it on pubdev when it's done (hopefully) so I have to think twice before writing it.
The question is, if I do so (developing Kotlin-based plugin), will it make any difference? Like maybe requires the user to add some extra configuration to their project? Or maybe any Flutter project that uses Java can't use my package? and.. will it do the same for iOS (using Swift over Objective-C)? The docs is telling us that we can switch both in between, but doesn't tell any side effects about it.
No there is nothing to worry about. Flutter apps are now by default created with Kotlin/Swift and not with Java/ObjC. Of course if someone has an ultra old Flutter configuration, then he might have some problems but I wouldn't concern myself with it.
All the native plugin code is converted to a Gradle dependency or Pod(spec) dependency. The app developer doesn't have to care about it and that is a good thing.
I found this about dart obfuscation in flutter, but it only says how to enable obfuscation. I tried looking up in what seems to be the snapshot generator arguments here, but the only arguments exposed regarding obfuscation are:
--obfuscate
--save-obfuscation-map=<map-filename>
As far as I know, it's not possible to only obfuscate part of your application. I don't recall that ever being requested by a Google team using Flutter, so I would be extremely surprised if this was possible.
I'm trying to create my first xlet project.
Can you help me?
I don't know which library I need to download.
What kind of project I have to create? (I'm using netbeans)
This site has a lot of useful info:
http://www.interactivetvweb.org/tutorials/javatv/first_xlet
You can use XletView to view your Xlet.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xletview/
You will need to get a hold on the various API's, which is somewhat troublesome (I've heard).
But there are also other ways of getting them. For example, if you own PowerDVD, you'll be able to find BDJ.jar somewhere in that package. Add that to your classpath, and you'll be able to compile your Xlet.
If you're running Windows, you can probably develop Xlets with JavaME SDK 3.0 too (sadly not available for Linux though).
