(5) Video Background Layout 🎞️
Added support for video-based backgrounds on the home and dynamic screens, enabling immersive storefront experiences.

(9) Support for opening products directly in WebView
Now you can decide product type to open in Webview or Native Product Detail, giving you consistent logic and more flexible control (works for both product and listing apps).
(10) External links open in the system browser instead of in-app WebView
Any URL that is not part of your app will now open in the external browser instead of inside the in-app webview. This makes navigation clearer, prevents broken flows, and gives users a smoother experience.
Configuration
Open the file lib/env.dart and configure as below:
"advanceConfig": {
- /// Disable inAppWebView to use webview_flutter
- /// so webview can navigate to external app.
- /// Useful for webview checkout which need to handle payment in another app.
- "inAppWebView": false,
- 'AlwaysClearWebViewCache': false,
- 'AlwaysClearWebViewCookie': false,
- "WebViewScript": "",
},
+ "webViewConfig": {
+ "webViewMode": "webViewFlutter", // `inAppWebView` or `webViewFlutter`
+ "alwaysClearWebViewCache": false,
+ "alwaysClearWebViewCookie": false,
+ "webViewScript": "",
+ /// List of domains that should open the external app instead of the webview.
+ /// Just add the domain name only, do not add full URL. For example: "example.com"
+ /// If not set, we will use our default list from [kExternalDomains]
+ "externalDomains": [],
+ /// List of domains that should be loaded in the webview.
+ /// If the list is empty, all domains will be opened in the webview if it is
+ /// not in [externalDomains]. Otherwise, if the domain is not in this list, it
+ /// will be opened in the external browser.
+ /// Just add the domain name only, do not add full URL. For example: "example.com"
+ "internalDomains": [],
+ },
FluxStore aims to focus more on animated stack containers for items on the app.
With smooth transition effects and vibrant visuals, the banner now not only looks great but also improves navigation and accessibility.
