    Read your RSS feed like it would be an ebook - A sample Android app written in Google's Flutter that demonstrates the unique features of a Surface Duo.

     

    It is not a full app, it is rather another sample application that uses Flutter. I also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DYHomDmQeg which shows the app and its different layouts in single or dual screen mode.

     

    You can have a look at the app's source at its https://github.com/tscholze/flutter-surfaceduo-rssbook

    Abstract

    It is not a full app, it is rather a tiny sample application that showcases how you could retrieve the Surface Duo hinge angle using Flutter. I used the https://devblogs.microsoft.com/surface-duo/get-started-with-flutter-on-surface-duo/ as entry point. I also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FGOKANbo3A which tells some problems I stept into.

    Please have a look at the https://github.com/tscholze/flutter-surfaceduo-hinge-sample to see the full source code.
