How to write a Flutter desktop application
summary
Builds a Flutter desktop app that uses GitHub APIs to list repositories, issues and pull requests, implements OAuth2 with a local redirect server and browser auth, and generates a type‑safe client. Uses pub packages http oauth2 url_launcher and the unofficial GitHub package to fetch the current user and pull requests (shows many live PRs for the flutter/flutter repo). Adds a custom window_to_front plugin with native Swift code to activate the app window after login. Everything is implemented end‑to‑end and demonstrated working.
