Overview
ft_cli is a command-line tool designed to streamline the integration of Flutter and Dart projects with Clean Architecture. It provides automated scaffolding for creating structured, maintainable codebases following clean architecture principles. The CLI simplifies project setup by generating layered components such as entities, repositories, use cases, and presentation layers. It supports cross-platform development on macOS, Windows, and Linux, making it ideal for teams aiming to enforce consistent architecture across Flutter applications.
Use cases
- Automating Clean Architecture project setup
