Overview
A Flutter plugin enabling Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) functionality across multiple platforms. It supports both central and peripheral roles, allowing devices to scan for, connect to, and communicate with BLE peripherals, as well as act as a BLE beacon. Ideal for IoT applications, smart device integration, and proximity-based services. The plugin is compatible with Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux, making it suitable for cross-platform development. It provides a consistent API for managing BLE operations, including service and characteristic discovery, data reading/writing, and connection handling.
