Generate production-ready Flutter Cursor rules for Project Rules (.mdc), AGENTS.md, or legacy .cursorrules. This template encodes stack-specific conventions for projects using Flutter. Dart-based UI toolkit with hot reload, Material Design, and native compilation.
The template focuses Cursor AI on concrete Flutter practices instead of generic coding advice. Required sections are always included; optional sections can be enabled when they match your project.
The generator turns these sections into Project Rules with frontmatter, AGENTS.md, or a single .cursorrules file depending on the output format you choose.
- Use composition over inheritance — prefer StatelessWidget and StatefulWidget.
- Use 2 spaces for indentation.
- Use camelCase for variables and methods.
- Extract reusable widgets into separate files.
- Use const constructors for compile-time constant widgets.
- Keep build methods clean — extract complex UI into helper methods.- Use setState for simple local state within a single widget.
- Use Provider or Riverpod for dependency injection and state propagation.
- Use Bloc/Cubit for complex business logic with event-driven patterns.
- Keep business logic out of widgets — use controllers or blocs.
- Use ValueNotifier and ValueListenableBuilder for single-value state.
- Avoid rebuilding the entire widget tree — use const and selective rebuilds.- Use layout widgets (Row, Column, Stack, Expanded, Flexible).
- Use SizedBox and Spacer for spacing — avoid hardcoded padding.
- Use MediaQuery and LayoutBuilder for responsive layouts.
- Use Theme and ThemeData for consistent styling.
- Use Theme.of(context) to access theme values.
- Define text styles, colors, and spacing in a centralized theme.
