Overview
A lightweight Flutter package for connecting and communicating with Bluetooth serial devices on Android. It enables bidirectional data transfer between a Flutter app and compatible hardware such as sensors, microcontrollers, or custom IoT devices using standard Bluetooth Serial protocols. The library abstracts low-level Bluetooth operations, providing an easy-to-use API for scanning, pairing, and sending/receiving data. Designed specifically for Android, it supports basic Bluetooth functionality without requiring complex configurations.
