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.
