Which IDE do you use for flutter? They are trying to get a good Preview working on Android studio. It's still quite limited, but when it works it's a killer.

I've been using, and absolutely loving, Android Studio + Cursor with VS code for about a week now.

Virtual devices of Android Studio are surprisingly snappy on my low-end MacBook Air.

Yeah, the phone emulation is quite well done.

Though keep in mind that it's really hard to predict the finger interface/animation smoothness from the mouse interface when you move to a real device. I keep making interactive zones too small on the emulator.

Yes, I've seen that already too.

I keep sending APK's to my phone for testing but that's only worth it for testing a bunch of "final" widgets at a time. Especially with things like this ZapSlider there's quite some quirks to iron out.
