Package Overview

Package selection guidance compiled from public package information, community data, and project usage.

The wifi_iot package is a Flutter plugin designed to manage WiFi connections and hotspot functionality on Android and iOS devices. It enables apps to scan for available networks, connect to Wi-Fi, and configure access points (AP/STA mode).

The plugin simplifies integration with hardware devices that rely on Wi-Fi configuration during setup or operation.
