Overview
FBroadcast is a lightweight, efficient broadcast system for Flutter applications, enabling seamless communication between components without tight coupling. It simplifies state management and event handling by allowing widgets and services to listen to and emit events across the app. Designed with performance in mind, it supports multiple platforms including Android, iOS, Web, macOS, Windows, and Linux. Ideal for decoupling logic and improving maintainability in complex apps.
