window_to_front

pub package GitHub Sponsors

A Flutter plugin that brings your desktop application window back to the front of the window stack.

After an authentication flow — or any other use case where you hand off to an external program such as a web browser — the user is often left staring at the browser window. Ideally the application should return to the front automatically. window_to_front does exactly that.

Supported platforms

Platform Supported
Windows ✅
Linux ✅
macOS ✅

Installation

Add the dependency to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  window_to_front: ^0.0.4

Then run:

flutter pub get

Usage

import 'package:window_to_front/window_to_front.dart';

// Call this when you want your application window to come to the front,
// for example right after returning from an external browser sign-in flow.
await WindowToFront.activate();

See the example for a complete sample.

How do I choose a repository?

Start with your use case, compare repository activity, and check the original project before adopting it.

  1. Search by repository name, owner or description, then narrow the results by topic.
  2. Compare stars, forks and recent pushes. Stars show community interest, not a guarantee of quality.
  3. Read the README, license and issues on GitHub before using a project.
