From 6.0 onwards the Flutter SDK is published to pub.dev only — users reach the native SDK APIs through the bindings API, so this repository no longer needs to carry the plugin source for new releases. master stays on 5.6.x, and pre-6.0 updates land here directly via PRs. The nightly branch continues to receive updates.

Changes

  • Adds a note under the intro stating that this branch tracks 5.6.x and is not updated for newer releases, pointing at pub.dev, the changelog, and the SDK 6 migration guide.
  • Pins the installation snippet to ^5.6.0. It read nutrient_flutter: any, which resolves to 6.0.0 once that is published, while every instruction around it is 5.6.x-era — minSdkVersion 21 vs 24, no Flutter 3.44.6 requirement, no bindings entry point, no direct platform-package dependencies. Anyone following this README with any would hit a build failure that looks like an SDK bug.

Notes

  • The migration guide link 404s until the corresponding website branch deploys. All other links verified: pub.dev 200, changelog 200, getting started 200.
  • Draft until Nutrient Flutter SDK 6.0.0 is actually live on pub.dev, so the note does not land before the release it describes.

Nutrient Flutter SDK 6.0 and later are published to pub.dev only. The native
SDK APIs are reachable through the bindings API, so this repository no longer
needs to carry the plugin source for new releases, and master stays on 5.6.x.

Also pin the installation snippet to ^5.6.0. It read `nutrient_flutter: any`,
which resolves to 6.0.0 once that is on pub.dev, while the surrounding setup
instructions here are 5.6.x-era — different minimum Android API level, Flutter
version, and dependency shape. Following this README with `any` would fail to
build.

The nightly branch continues to receive updates.
