Compressed Files

Top Flutter Compressed Files packages A compressed file is a file that has been reduced in size for storage or transmission purposes. The reduced file size is typically achieved by removing unnecessary data or by using a compression algorithm. Common compression algorithms include the Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) algorithm and the run-length encoding (RLE) algorithm. There are many different compressed file formats, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Some of the most common compressed file formats are the ZIP file format, the GZIP file format, RAR, 7z, and the BZIP2 file format. The complete list of Dart and Flutter packages that can help read and write compressed file is provided below.
