This period focused on building the core Showcase library for guided UI tours, including significant refactoring of the tooltip rendering engine and overlay infrastructure to improve performance and flexibility. Concurrently, the project expanded its capabilities by introducing new widget components for actions and animations, while also adding full platform support for macOS and web in the example application.

The example application now includes a complete macOS target, enabling users to build and run the app on macOS. This change adds the necessary Xcode project structure, including the Runner target, Swift source files (AppDelegate, MainFlutterWindow), and configuration files (Info.plist, entitlements, xcconfigs) required to integrate Flutter on the macOS platform.

This change establishes the foundational structure for the ShowCaseView Flutter package. It adds essential contributor guidelines (CONTRIBUTING.md) and a Code of Conduct (CODE\_OF\_CONDUCT.md) to define community standards. The project's license is formally set to MIT, replacing the previous placeholder. Documentation is significantly expanded with a detailed README.md that includes installation instructions, feature overviews, and performance benchmarks for version 5.x.x. Additionally, development tooling is configured with analysis\_options.yaml for linting, and the .gitignore file is updated to exclude IDE-specific files and lockfiles. The legacy IDE module file (showcaseview.iml) is removed as part of this cleanup.

This change introduces the core components of the Showcase library, enabling developers to create guided tours and highlight specific UI elements. The \Showcase\ widget wraps target widgets to display informative tooltips, while \ShowcaseView\ manages the sequence, state, and lifecycle of multiple showcases within a defined scope. The implementation includes \ShowcaseController\ for individual showcase logic, \ShowcaseService\ for scoped registration and lookup, and \TargetWidget\ for rendering the highlight overlay. Key features visible in the diff include support for custom tooltip widgets via \Showcase.withWidget\, configuration for animations, overlays, and auto-scrolling, and the ability to handle multiple concurrent showcases through scoping.

This change introduces several new model classes in the \lib/src/models\ directory to support enhanced tooltip interactions and isolated showcase scopes. \TooltipActionButton\ and \TooltipActionConfig\ define the structure and styling for interactive buttons within tooltips, allowing users to add custom or predefined actions (like next/previous/skip) with configurable layouts, icons, and padding. \ActionButtonIcon\ supports both standard icons and image icons for these buttons. Additionally, \ShowcaseScope\ enables multiple independent showcase systems to coexist by managing controllers within named scopes, while \LinkedShowcaseDataModel\ handles data for linked showcase overlays, and \FlutterInheritedData\ captures necessary inherited widget context (like themes and text styles) for consistent rendering.

This change introduces several new widget classes in the library to support enhanced tooltip and showcase features. It adds \ActionWidget\ and \TooltipActionButtonWidget\ to render and handle action buttons within tooltips, including support for custom icons and accessibility semantics. A new \FloatingActionWidget\ allows persistent UI elements to remain visible during a showcase tour. Additionally, \ToolTipSlideTransition\ provides a size-independent slide animation for tooltips, \DefaultTooltipTextWidget\ handles standardized text rendering, and \ShowcaseCircularProgressIndicator\ offers platform-specific loading indicators.

The example application has been updated to showcase the library's \ShowcaseView\ registration API, allowing for scoped tours and global settings. The new \detailscreen.dart\ demonstrates how to register a specific scope (\\_detailsScreen\) and manage lifecycle callbacks (\onFinish\, \onDismiss\) for a single-target showcase. The main \main.dart\ now uses a global \ShowcaseView.register\ call to configure shared behaviors such as auto-play delays, blur values, and custom floating action widgets, while also defining global tooltip actions (Previous/Next) that can be selectively hidden for specific widgets.

The example application now includes configuration and metadata to support building on Linux, Windows, and Web platforms, alongside a migration to the Flutter stable channel. A new analysis\_options.yaml file has been added to enforce standard Flutter linting rules, and the .gitignore has been updated to exclude generated files for these new platforms as well as the pubspec.lock file.

The lib directory has been reorganized to export specific modules from the src folder, including action buttons, tooltip configurations, showcase views, and floating action widgets, replacing the previous single-file structure. Additionally, the license header has been updated to BSD-2, and the Calculator class has been removed.

The Android example app has been migrated to the Flutter v2 embedding, which changes the main activity to use io.flutter.embedding.android.FlutterActivity and removes the manual plugin registration in MainActivity.kt. The AndroidManifest.xml has been updated to declare the flutterEmbedding version as 2, set the activity as exported, and configure splash screen and normal theme metadata. Additionally, the Gradle wrapper has been upgraded from version 4.10.2 to 8.12, and the package attribute was removed from the manifest tags to align with newer Android/Gradle standards.

The internal implementation of the showcase overlay system has been restructured to improve reliability and maintainability. A new \OverlayManager\ singleton now centralizes the creation, visibility, and rebuilding of the overlay entry, replacing scattered logic. A dedicated \ShapeClipper\ handles the cutout paths for target widgets, with a specific fallback rendering path for web platforms to ensure correct visual output. Additionally, a \TargetPositionService\ manages the calculation of target widget coordinates and dimensions, introducing caching to optimize performance. Supporting changes include new utility constants for default dimensions and animations, and new enums (\TooltipPosition\, \TooltipActionPosition\) that define tooltip placement and action button layout options.

The \ShowCaseWidget\ class is now deprecated and will be removed in version 6.0.0. Users should migrate to the new \ShowcaseView\ API, using \ShowcaseView.register()\ to register showcases and \ShowcaseView.get()\ to access the current active showcase key, replacing the previously deprecated \ShowCaseWidget.activeTargetWidget\ and \builder\ patterns.

The tooltip rendering system has been restructured into a new set of internal components (including \RenderPositionDelegate\, \RenderAnimationDelegate\, and \RenderObjectManager\) to improve layout precision and performance. A key user-facing change is the addition of the \targetTooltipGap\ parameter, which allows you to control the specific spacing between the target widget and the tooltip. The new rendering pipeline also implements a throttled repaint mechanism to reduce unnecessary paint operations, resulting in smoother animations and lower CPU usage during showcases.

The iOS example project has been migrated to the Flutter embedding v2 architecture, which removes the manual embedding of App.framework and Flutter.framework from the Xcode project settings and switches the build script to embed\_and\_thin. The minimum supported iOS version has been raised from 8.0 to 11.0, and the Xcode project version has been upgraded to 13.0. Additionally, the Info.plist now includes CADisableMinimumFrameDurationOnPhone to support higher refresh rate displays on modern iPhones.

Removal of obsolete calculator unit tests; Removed example app widget test.

The example application and the showcaseview package have been upgraded to require Dart SDK 3.0.0 or higher, dropping support for earlier Dart versions. The example app's Android configuration has been modernized to use the Gradle plugin management DSL, targeting Android SDK 34 with Java/Kotlin 17, and now references the local package via a path dependency. Additionally, the package version has been bumped to 5.1.0, and the example app now includes asset support and uses flutter\_lints for code analysis.
