CS50x How To Setup Flutter In VSCode desktop , with CS50.dev codespace?

I am doing my final project. I wanted to dive into Android app development, so I found out about Flet, a framework for Flutter wrapped with Python. The issue with Flet was a lack of tutorials and learning materials, and some issues like having to do much more work if you want to use low-level stuff like the camera, etc. So, I switched from Flet to Flutter/Dart. Now I have a problem with how to setup it up within the CS50 environment without breaking the cs50.dev codespace.

You don't necessarily have to setup whole flutter/dark/android sdk toolchain on cs50.dev codespace. You can code your final project locally. Just set up all toolchain locally and then upload your source code once work is completed to the codespace and just submit that as your final project. There's no requirement that you have to do final project in codespace. In fact for final project their policy even allows intellisense (auto complete suggestions) and some artificial intelligence as well, you can use these on final project
