Flutter combined with Codemagic Best Practices (YAML approach)

Goal

Implements Codemagic YAML configurations for Flutter deployment. Codemagic natively understands Flutter, requires no extra tooling for code signing, and provides Apple M-series machines for fast iOS compilation.

Instructions

The recommended approach is using codemagic.yaml for "Infrastructure as Code," maintaining it within the project repository alongside the source code.

1. Infrastructure and Cache Strategy

Place codemagic.yaml in the project root. A single file can contain multiple Workflows (e.g., executing iOS deployments and Android deployments separately).

Best Caching Practice: Caching is fundamental to saving CI costs. Be sure to cache Dart dependencies and native build tools.
