Custom Flutter component with build for web

[aistrych]

For v0.25.2

Creating custom Flutter component according to this docs: https://flet.dev/docs/extend/integrating-existing-flutter-packages/
is not working. After successful build (flet build web) I've got build/web directory that I set in FLET_WEB_PATH env. Next I try to run my app with uvicorn like that:

uvicorn main:app --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8888 --reload

but it is not working: nothing is displayed on canvas and there is no error regarding unknown control. Without exporting FLET_WEB_PATH before that such text is visible.
Also it looks like what is served in build/web directory is a standalone version where python code is interpreted by pyodide and I would like to have client server version.

Yes, the result built with flet build web is a static website. If you want to use web part with FLET_WEB_PATH and uvicorn CLI you need to build it with flutter build web instead.

Hm, so something along the lines described in https://github.com/flet-dev/flet/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md ? Do I have to fork Flet and add my component to source code or I can use Flet extension approach with flutter build web at the end?

We are changing approach to creating Flet extensions in 0.26.0 which will be released within the next couple of days together with the new guide. Give it a try then and let us know if it works for you.

Can you make this process more simpler of creating custom flutter control or use existing packages I am trying to make it from last 3 months but again fail and again fail by error unknown control
