Flutter Internationalization, intl code generation not working


I created a new Flutter project with Android Studio. I'm using null-safety and I'm running the application on a physical device yet the code-generation is not working, there is no flutter_gen folder inside .dart_tool folder just flutter_build folder.

I followed the steps in Flutter's official Internationalizing documentation

Im not using Flutter Intl plugin because it doesn't support null-safety (I'm aware you can make an script to add an old dart version at the top of each generated file as a workaround)

flutter doctor command output:

}

lib/l10n/app_es.arb

{

}

Solution

  • It was my mistake, moving /lib/l10n.yaml/ to /l10n.yaml/ solves the problem.
