In this tutorial, I'll be showing you some exciting new features and improvements in FlutterFlow. You'll learn how to use the AI Gen, which is a powerful AI-driven tool to generate app UI designs effortlessly. I'll also cover backend query caching to optimize your app's performance and reduce API calls.

We'll explore how to set and reset widget states, allowing for more dynamic and interactive UIs. Additionally, I'll demonstrate how to provide read-only project access, which is useful for sharing your work with teammates or clients without giving them editing permissions.

Next, I'll show you how to generate theme colors from an image, making it easy to create visually cohesive designs. We'll discuss the addition of custom domains, allowing for even more personalization options for your projects.

I'll then guide you through uploading any file type to your app, making it more versatile and useful for various scenarios. We'll also learn how to change the background color for testing purposes, making it easier to visualize and experiment with your design.

Lastly, I'll cover some other improvements and bug fixes that have been made to the platform, ensuring a smooth and efficient app-building experience. Join me in this tutorial to take advantage of these powerful new features and enhancements in FlutterFlow.

Thanks for the video 🙏 What if I do the backend call to firebase and loading the list of documents and this list will be updated over time. Like the list will have more items in the future. How do I approach caching. And in out case - first user add new items, while other user just see the list of items. Thanks in advance

Okay one question Dimitar: how can you expire the cache after a time period? E.g. 24 hours / next day?

Use case: I have a list of store items, which are cached using a backend query. The caching is done at app level. A bool (non-persistant) is set as an override, such that when an event happens (such as buying an item from the store), the cache will know to run again to get the updated list of store items. This is all working.

However there is another event that should clear the cache; coming in the next day (e.g. store might have new items on sale etc). Currently, if the user doesn't log out or doesn't close the app, the cache won't be cleared, and neither will the local override boolean.

Any ideas here?

After the set and reset button update, the on select on checkbox group is only getting triggered once on the first check.

I want to update the appstate parallel to the users input on the check box group, without any submit button but just on select. As far as I remember, this was working fine prev to the update.

When try to generate the children dynamically with the checkboxgroup list view, only the first check on the checkbox group is being generated.

Can you please confirm is this is the case?

Thanks to FFTeam for this awesome app!
