Package selection guidance compiled from public package information, community data, and project usage.
Fair is a Flutter package designed for dynamic widget updates, enabling server-driven UI rendering. It allows developers to generate and modify widgets on the fly based on data received from a server, facilitating flexible and responsive user interfaces without requiring app updates. Built with Flutter, it supports both Android and iOS platforms, making it ideal for applications needing real-time content changes. The package integrates seamlessly into existing Flutter projects via pub.dev and is maintained by hacktons.cn.

Fair is a dynamic framework designed for Flutter. Through the automatic conversion of native Dart source files by the Fair Compiler tool, the project can obtain the ability to dynamically update the Widget Tree and State.
The goal of creating Fair is to support updates through business bundles and JS distribution without the release of versions (Android, iOS, Web), similar to React Native. After integrating with Flutter Fair, you can quickly publish new pages without waiting for your app's next release date. Fair provides standard widgets, which can be used as a new dynamic page or as part of an existing Flutter page, such as typography/style modification of operation bits, full page replacement, partial replacement, etc.
Fair's UI rendering is lossless and can be restored at the pixel level. Take a look at the effect of escaping some pages of Best Flutter UI Templates:

🏛Architecture
🚀 Running
Use Flutter Fair require few steps.
step1:download fair project source code
It is recommended to download fair to the local and dependencies on the relative path.
The download method is as follows:
git clone https://github.com/wuba/fair.git
step2:Add dependency inside pubspec.yaml
Assuming that the fair project and your own project are in the same folder:
After using faircli to configure the local hot update service, open the developer options on the mobile device, select the local mode, enter the ip of the development machine, then preview fair dynamic effect
Fair-Online is an integrated cloud development platform for Flutter developers, from online development of Flutter, to real-time compilation and preview, packaging and publishing, and dynamic release of end-side updates, to realize the dynamic online Flutter.
Developers do not need to configure the Flutter development environment, develop and debug code online, compile and preview in real time, and what you see is what you get. Combined with the Flutter dynamic framework Fair and the hot update platform FairPushy created by the 58 open source team, Flutter online dynamics are realized.
