SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires references, and includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Enables Flutter developers to build widgets using a setup phase that owns resources via hooks and disposes them automatically, returning a builder for reactive UI updates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Setup-based composition: Declare signals, controllers, listenables, effects, timers, and lifecycle callbacks inside a single setup function that runs once per widget identity.
  • Three entry surfaces: Use SetupWidget for typed widgets, SetupMixin to augment existing StatefulWidgets, or SetupBuilder for inline prototypes.
  • Reactive rebuilds: The setup runtime tracks reads and schedules frame-end rebuilds to ensure predictable UI updates.

Quick Start

Create a SetupWidget and implement setup(context, props) to declare resources with use* hooks and return a builder.

FAQPage Schema
How do I manage Flutter widget lifecycle and resource disposal using setup hooks?▼

You can manage Flutter widget lifecycles by running a setup phase that owns resources via use* hooks and returns a builder for reactive rebuilds. The runtime automatically handles disposal and hook sequencing.

Can I use setup hooks in an existing StatefulWidget?▼

Yes, you can augment an existing StatefulWidget using SetupMixin. This allows you to declare setup hooks for resources and lifecycle callbacks without rewriting your widget into a new SetupWidget type.

How do Flutter setup hooks trigger reactive widget rebuilds?▼

Reactive rebuilds are triggered when the setup runtime tracks signal reads and schedules frame-end rebuilds. This ensures predictable UI updates by batching rendering at the end of the current frame.

What is the best way to declare controllers and timers in a Flutter widget setup phase?▼

The best way to declare controllers and timers is inside the setup function using use* hooks. This setup function runs once per widget identity and automatically coordinates disposal and post-frame rendering.

Does Flutter setup hook sequencing work across hot reloads?▼

Yes, the setup runtime manages hook sequencing across hot reloads. It ensures that resources declared in the setup phase maintain their correct order and state during development.
