Flutter Layout Explorer is a new tool released in Flutter v1.12 stable release for debugging layout issues. Layout Explorer began as an experimental feature to fix overflow errors and has grown to become the first page the user opens when using DevTools. It was announced at the biggest Flutter Event (Flutter Interact) of the year and received positive user reactions.
Background
Layout Explorer was created during my internship at Google Flutter team, back in Fall 2019 (Oct-Dec 2019), and it was one of my proudest project so far and the one that completely changed my life.
FYI I'm allowed to talk about all of these because all of my work is completely open source, and you can see all my code changes here ✨🥺
The Story
I joined Flutter DevExp (DevTools) team as a software engineering intern in Google Seattle office, after 14 prior rejected applications and two failed interviewing attempts with Google.
