Architecture first
A clean, modular core with deliberate boundaries—designed to stay understandable as products and teams grow.
Preference Flutter
Local-first storage
without the ceremony.
Use simple flat keys for app state, isolated typed collections for offline entities, and one durable pure-Dart engine underneath both workflows.

The Preference philosophy
Infrastructure should feel invisible.
Preference exists because durable local state should not force teams to choose between a tiny key-value utility and a heavy database stack.
Performance by design
Fast paths, minimal overhead and purposeful APIs keep local data work responsive without turning your app into infrastructure.
Local-first foundations
Durable app state and typed offline entities live close to the user, with a foundation built for the sync era ahead.
Built for production
Thoughtful failure modes, predictable behavior and strong validation aim for the reliability real applications demand.
Developer experience
Small APIs, useful defaults and readable code let teams focus on the application instead of storage ceremony.
Long-term thinking
Preference is being built as a cohesive ecosystem—not a collection of utilities that drift apart over time.
Two workflows, one engine
Flat app state and typed entities stay cleanly separated.
Use direct get/set APIs for settings, flags and lightweight values. Use named collections and serializers for work orders, assets, notes or any domain model that needs structure and scale.
