Flutter Refactoring Extension

A Visual Studio Code extension that provides additional refactoring actions for Flutter projects.

Features

Wrap with If: Insert an if (condition) { ... } around selected code.
Wrap with If (no braces): Insert if (condition) ... (without curly braces) around selected code.
Wrap with If (Spread): Insert if (condition) ...[ ... ] around selected code, useful for Flutter's spread operator in lists.
Wrap with Ternary: Convert one or two widgets into a condition ? firstWidget : secondWidget expression.

Tip You can select the code and execute the refactoring action (from refactoring menu or command palette]) to wrap the whole block of code at once.

Known Issues and limitations

The code actions are triggered only when opening/editing a Dart file. Opening a non-Dart file before opening a Dart file may not activate the extension.
After using "Wrap with If" or "Wrap with Ternary", you might need to manually format your code if you disabled the editor.action.formatDocument or have a specific formatter that doesn’t auto-run.
