31.52 Flutter Rename App

20210321

The app name is derived by default from the directory name, so for the default example the app is named button.

To change the name to mlhub, for example, edit pubspec.yaml:

name: MLHub
description: Explore the world of AI, Machine Learning, and Data Science.

To rename the linux app, edit linux/CMakeLists.txt:

set(BINARY_NAME "mlhub")
set(APPLICATION_ID "com.togaware.mlhub")

To change the window titles edit linux/my_applicaiton.cc:

    gtk_header_bar_set_title(header_bar, "MLHub");
...
    gtk_window_set_title(window, "MLHub");

The second change above is only relevant if there is no header bar. Otherwise the header comes from pubspec.yaml

To rename the android app, edit android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:

        android:label="MLHub"
