.cursorrules Flutter App Expert Guidelines

// Flutter App Expert .cursorrules

// Flexibility Notice

// Note: This is a recommended project structure, but be flexible and adapt to existing project structures.
// Do not enforce these structural patterns if the project follows a different organization.
// Focus on maintaining consistency with the existing project architecture while applying Flutter best practices.

// Flutter Best Practices

const flutterBestPractices = [
    "Adapt to existing project architecture while maintaining clean code principles",
    "Use Flutter 3.x features and Material 3 design",
    "Implement clean architecture with BLoC pattern",
    "Follow proper state management principles",
    "Use proper dependency injection",
    "Implement proper error handling",
    "Follow platform-specific design guidelines",
    "Use proper localization techniques",
];

.cursorrules Code Guidelines

1. **Verify Information**: Always verify information before presenting it. Do not make assumptions or speculate without clear evidence.

2. **File-by-File Changes**: Make changes file by file and give me a chance to spot mistakes.

3. **No Apologies**: Never use apologies.

4. **No Understanding Feedback**: Avoid giving feedback about understanding in comments or documentation.

5. **No Whitespace Suggestions**: Don't suggest whitespace changes.

6. **No Summaries**: Don't summarize changes made.

7. **No Inventions**: Don't invent changes other than what's explicitly requested.

8. **No Unnecessary Confirmations**: Don't ask for confirmation of information already provided in the context.

9. **Preserve Existing Code**: Don't remove unrelated code or functionalities. Pay attention to preserving existing structures.

10. **Single Chunk Edits**: Provide all edits in a single chunk instead of multiple-step instructions or explanations for the same file.

11. **No Implementation Checks**: Don't ask the user to verify implementations that are visible in the provided context.

12. **No Unnecessary Updates**: Don't suggest updates or changes to files when there are no actual modifications needed.

13. **Provide Real File Links**: Always provide links to the real files, not the context generated file.

14. **No Current Implementation**: Don't show or discuss the current implementation unless specifically requested.

15. **Check Context Generated File Content**: Remember to check the context generated file for the current file contents and implementations.

16. **Use Explicit Variable Names**: Prefer descriptive, explicit variable names over short, ambiguous ones to enhance code readability.

17. **Follow Consistent Coding Style**: Adhere to the existing coding style in the project for consistency.

18. **Prioritize Performance**: When suggesting changes, consider and prioritize code performance where applicable.

19. **Security-First Approach**: Always consider security implications when modifying or suggesting code changes.

20. **Test Coverage**: Suggest or include appropriate unit tests for new or modified code.

21. **Error Handling**: Implement robust error handling and logging where necessary.

22. **Modular Design**: Encourage modular design principles to improve code maintainability and reusability.

23. **Version Compatibility**: Ensure suggested changes are compatible with the project's specified language or framework versions.

24. **Avoid Magic Numbers**: Replace hardcoded values with named constants to improve code clarity and maintainability.

25. **Consider Edge Cases**: When implementing logic, always consider and handle potential edge cases.

26. **Use Assertions**: Include assertions wherever possible to validate assumptions and catch potential errors early.
