What This Skill Does

Guides you through building a structured data layer in Flutter apps using SQLite and other local databases. Covers repository and service patterns, offline-first synchronization, and caching strategies for different data types.

Gives you a copy-paste-ready architecture for local data persistence in Flutter instead of figuring out the repository pattern, sync logic, and caching strategy from scratch.

When to use it

  • Adding SQLite persistence to a Flutter app with proper table schemas
  • Building an offline-first sync flow between local storage and a remote API
  • Choosing between shared_preferences, sqflite, and Hive for different data sizes
  • Structuring repositories and services so the UI never touches raw database models
  • Queuing failed writes for background sync when the device goes offline
