Startify - a Visual Studio Code Extension for creating awesome Flutter projects with ease!

startify's Issues

Improve code readability and sort resultant code

Currently the extension generates dart files and fills in the boilerplate code via the variables found in the extension.js file. I believe a better approach will be to segregate/sort these boilerplate codes into separate files within the source code folder and then reference somehow during runtime.
I tried taking this approach but it seems it doesn't work well after bundling the extension into a .vsix.

Perhaps, Github variables can come to the rescue and help a bit here.

Please note that this is only the approach I think is optimal. Better approaches/suggestions are always appreciated.

Need to run some checks before generating boilerplate files

Startify needs to first check whether the files and/or folders that it is about to generate already exist. If not, proceed with generation. If yes, pass these scenarios:

1. If folder exists (eg. utils), the files that are normally generated under the utils folder should be generated in the one that already exists
2. If the file exists (eg. utils/colors.dart), skip the creation of the file and display a message stating the skipped file name.
