Why Getx is all you need
GetX ships out of the box with high-performance state management, intelligent dependency injection, and route management in a simplistic and practical way. GetX aims to minimize boilerplates while also providing simple and intuitive syntax for developers to use while building their applications. At the core of GetX are these 3 principles:.
GetX aims to minimize boilerplates while also providing simple and intuitive syntax for developers to use while building their applications. At the core of GetX are these 3 principles:
-
Performance GetX focuses on the performance of your application by implementing its features to consume as little resources as possible.
-
Productivity GetX wants developers to use its features to be productive as quickly as possible. It does so by employing easy to remember syntax and practices. For example, generally, the developer should be concerned to remove controllers from memory but GetX out of the box provides smart management that monitors controllers in your application and remove them when they are not being used by default.
-
Organization GetX allows the decoupling of the View, presentation logic, business logic, dependency injection, and navigation in your Flutter application. You do not need context to navigate between routes, so you are not dependent on the widget tree for navigation. You don’t need context to access your controllers/blocs through an inheritedWidget, so you can completely decouple your presentation logic and business logic from your view layer. You do not need to inject your Controllers/Models/Blocs classes into your widget tree through multiproviders, for this GetX uses its own dependency injection feature, decoupling the DI from its view completely.
Features Of GetX
GetX comes with a couple of features you will need in your daily app development in Flutter. Let’s look at them:
- STATE MANAGEMENT # One of the flagship features of GetX is its intuitive state management feature. State management in GetX can be achieved with little or no boilerplate.
- ROUTE MANAGEMENT # GetX provides API for navigating within the Flutter application. This API is simple and with less code needed.
- DEPENDENCY MANAGEMENT # GetX provides a smart way to manage dependencies in your Flutter application like the view controllers. GetX will remove any controller not being used at the moment from memory. This was a task you as the developer will have to do manually but GetX does that for you automatically out of the box.
- INTERNATIONALIZATION # GetX provides i18n out of the box allowing you to write applications with various language support.
- VALIDATION # GetX provides validation methods for performing input validation in your Flutter applications. This is quite convenient as you wouldn’t need to install a separate validation package.
- STORAGE # GetX provides a fast, extra light, and synchronous key-value in memory, which backs up data to disk at each operation. It is written entirely in Dart and easily integrates with the core GetX package.
