Hello Guys!

it's been a while. Although I disappeared from the scene for months, my YouTube channel continued to grow.

Soon I'll be at the 7000 mark.

Thank you for diligently watching and commenting on my videos!

As you've probably noticed, I've been experimenting a bit in my latest videos. Not only in terms of video editing, but also in terms of topics (for example my video about Aider Chat or the Cookie Blocker).

I think in order to grow faster, I need to offer a greater variety of topics. If you have any ideas, please let me know.

Okay, let's get down to business.

I scraped almost 50,000 URLs, which took 3 days. Among these 50,000 Flutter and Dart packages, there were about 11,000 that had their release in 2023. By release, I mean the very first version of a package.

I sorted these 11,000 packs by popularity, pub points and finally by likes. Of these, just 20 packages have received more than 100 likes. These are the packages I present in my latest video:
