Flutter & Friends

Flutter & Friends 2025

The August 31-September 2, 2025 Stockholm Flutter and Dart developer conference at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern. Its organizer-published conference-app source encodes the event schedule and, on August 30, added a Friends Badge extra that lets users select and dither an image before writing it to an e-ink conference badge through NFC. The source confirms an event-linked electronic artifact and mobile workflow, but not ticket eligibility, attendee-wide allocation, credential use, final physical configuration, or media rights.

Flutter & Friends 2025 E-Paper Conference Badge

Flutter & Friends' organizer-published conference-app source added a Friends Badge editor on August 30, 2025: users could select an image, preview it with dithering, and write it to the conference badge through NFC. The companion `friends_badge` package explicitly describes control of the Flutter & Friends e-paper conference badge, and its implemented target profile is a passive four-color e-paper device. The source-backed record establishes a real event-linked electronic artifact at the completed Stockholm conference, but does not establish that every attendee received one, that it served as admission, or what final physical units contained.

Lifecycle

Add-ons & Upgrades

badge update workflow

NFC e-paper image-transfer path

The companion package documents image transfer to the badge through NFC using a Type 4/NfcA tag workflow. This identifies the update surface without exposing a claim about any active radio or every event unit.

Compatibility: Flutter & Friends e-paper conference-badge target

mobile application support

Cross-platform NFC capability integration

The dated conference-app commit adds Android NFC declarations and iOS NFC reader configuration alongside the Friends Badge feature. This is source evidence for app integration, not a guarantee of device compatibility or successful writes for every participant.

Compatibility: Flutter & Friends conference app on supported NFC-capable devices

participant-facing badge companion

Friends Badge conference-app editor

The organizer-published app exposes a Friends Badge extra where a user can select an image, preview it, and invoke the badge write action. The source records a public customization interface, not a particular attendee's installed build or completed update.

Operational history

Issues & Camp Impact

active and Bluetooth protocol boundary · public package documentation · generic protocol material not assigned to event unit

The package documentation contains generic active-badge and Bluetooth Low Energy protocol material, while its sole implemented BadgeSpecification target is passive and the organizer app's documented write action is NFC based. No reviewed source ties a battery-powered or Bluetooth-capable variant to the 2025 Flutter & Friends hardware.

The record does not claim Bluetooth, BLE, a battery, or active-radio behavior for the actual conference badge merely because the reusable package documents additional protocol families.

allocation and credential boundary · organizer-published app source · event-linked artifact confirmed; allocation unverified

The organizer-published app calls the target a conference badge and adds a user-facing write workflow immediately before the event, but reviewed sources do not state who received a badge, whether every ticket holder was eligible, whether it was optional, whether it functioned for entry, how it was handed out, or how many units existed.

The catalogue records a factual event-linked electronic badge and companion workflow without upgrading it to an all-attendee entitlement, admission credential, or distribution ledger.

app deployment, firmware, and source-rights boundary · public organizer-app and MIT package sources · companion source public; device deployment unresolved

Public app and package code establishes a companion workflow but not the precise store build attendees used, a preinstalled app, a badge firmware image, a flashing/update path, original firmware ownership, a post-event support commitment, or a license for event branding and media. The MIT package license applies to its source code only.

The entry keeps open-source companion software separate from physical-badge firmware, event deployment, trademark/media rights, and any implied image-reuse permission.

hardware and physical-production gap · implemented software target profile · needs artifact or manufacturing documentation

The public package identifies a passive 240×416 four-color e-paper target and NFC transfer path, but no reviewed source identifies the physical controller, display or tag vendor, battery state, board, schematic, BOM, enclosure, lanyard, final artwork, manufacturing run, quality-control outcome, or exact event-unit revision.

The entry describes only the source-backed interface and target profile rather than reconstructing unsupported electronics or treating generic documentation as a final physical specification.

missing rights-cleared image · local project policy · needs licensed original replacement

No Flutter & Friends 2025 E-Paper Conference Badge image is published because the current public source trail has not been paired with a reusable original badge or artifact photo or official upstream raster render with source URL, license or permission basis, attribution, and processing notes.

The Sweden record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying source-page media, documentation screenshots, event photos, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.
