Overview
Riverbloc is a state management package for Flutter that provides a BlocProvider-like implementation using Riverpod as its foundation. It serves as an alternative to the provider package, offering a more flexible and scalable approach to dependency injection and state management. Inspired by StateNotifierProvider, Riverbloc enables efficient, testable, and reactive state handling across Flutter applications. It supports all major platforms including Android, iOS, Web, macOS, Windows, and Linux, making it ideal for cross-platform development.
