Overview
Brick Offline First Build is a code generation library designed to streamline the development of offline-first applications using the Brick framework. It generates Dart code for domain models, repositories, and database interactions, enabling seamless synchronization between local storage and remote APIs. By leveraging annotations, it reduces boilerplate and enforces consistent data handling across platforms. The library integrates with Flutter's ecosystem and supports Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux, making it ideal for cross-platform apps requiring robust offline capabilities.
