Setting up Flutter

  1. Install Flutter if you do not have it installed. You can also refer to the link for further guidance

  3. Add flutter to path [flutter unzip location]/flutter/bin

  4. Disable analytics by running the following in any terminal

    • flutter config --no-analytics

    • dart --disable-analytics.

    • Go to settings: Ctrl+, OR File→Preferences→Settings

    • Search for telemetry

    • Set to off

  6. Run flutter doctor.
