   I don't know how to fix the showcase problem. With web apps, it's easy – just scan HTML, deduce what framework is used, and add it to your showcase list. With Flutter mobile/desktop apps it's not possible. And there are

   How do you do that? I just opened my phone, and the last app I used was a food delivery app. How can I figure out if it's a Flutter app or a native one?

    Has anyone tried both Pagoda and GoBuffalo and can compare? GoBuffalo recently archived their github project and basically become unmaintained, which is extremely sad for such a mature framework used in production by many.

    Thanks! Yes, Aider is a good attempt. I tried it a couple of times, ran into a number of issues, but should give it another try. Integration with an editor (I use nvim) is crucial though.
