Managing a fashion designer’s daily routine can be as challenging as creating the perfect dress. This is where TailorMade steps in—a tool designed to streamline the life of fashion professionals using the fabulous technologies of Flutter and Firebase Cloud Functions. Let’s dive into how you can easily get started with it!

Getting Started with TailorMade

To launch your journey with TailorMade, follow these initial steps after cloning the repository:

• Step 1: Install FVM

  If you haven’t installed it yet, begin by installing FVM (Flutter Version Management).

  dart pub global activate fvm

• Step 2: Install Flutter Version

  Next, install your local flutter version.

  fvm install

• Step 3: Install dependencies

  Now, let’s get everything set up.

  fvm flutter pub get

Code Generation with Riverpod

If your project involves code generation with Riverpod, run:

fvm flutter pub run build_runner build

Running TailorMade

TailorMade offers three different environments for flexibility:

• Mock Mode: This is a demo mode with non-persistent data.
• Development Mode: Connects to the Firebase development instance.
• Production Mode: It runs on the Firebase production instance.

To launch the app in mock mode, use:

fvm flutter run --flavor mock --dart-define=env.mode=mock

Understanding the TailorMade Code: An Analogy

Imagine TailorMade as a well-organized designer’s workspace. Each part of the code is like a different station in this workspace: 

• Installation of FVM is akin to setting up your designer tools, ensuring you have everything you need to create.
• Working with the flutter pub get command helps gather all your fabric and resources, essential for building and running your design.
• The different environment modes allow you to adapt your designs for various tasks: whether it’s prototyping in mock mode, creating a sample in development, or showcasing the final product in production.

By viewing code this way, you can appreciate how each piece contributes to the larger goal of perfecting your craft.

Troubleshooting: Common Issues and Solutions

While using TailorMade, you may encounter some bumps along the way. Here are a few troubleshooting tips:

• Problem: App crashes on startup.
• Solution: Ensure that you have the correct dependencies installed by running

  fvm flutter pub get

  .

• Problem: Unable to connect to Firebase.
• Solution: Double-check your Firebase configuration in the environment settings. Ensure that your ‘dev’ and ‘prod’ instances are correctly set up.
• Problem: Code generation errors with Riverpod.
• Solution: Make sure you have run the build_runner command properly. Try clearing the previous build caches if issues persist.
