Overview
A Flutter/Dart package providing a simple hook for optimistically updating state. It allows developers to immediately reflect changes in the UI, then resolve them asynchronously using accept, acceptAs, or reject methods. Ideal for scenarios like form submissions, toggles, or any action where immediate feedback improves UX before server confirmation. The hook manages state transitions smoothly and supports multiple platforms.
Use cases
- Real-time form updates
- Toggle actions with immediate feedback
- Async operations with optimistic UI
- Data submission with rollback capability
- User interaction simulations
Key features
- Optimistic state updates
- Support for accept/acceptAs/reject
- Simple API with minimal boilerplate
- Cross-platform compatibility
- Built-in state management
- Easy integration with existing hooks
Suitable for
- Developers seeking instant UI feedback
- Projects requiring temporary state changes
- Apps with frequent async interactions
- Teams prioritizing UX responsiveness
- Flutter apps using functional widgets
Considerations
- Requires understanding of async state handling
- Not suitable for critical data without fallbacks
- Needs proper error handling when rejecting
- Best used with clear user feedback mechanisms
- May require additional logic for complex workflows
