Flutter Feature-Based Clean Architecture

Feature-Based Clean Architecture

Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)

Standard for modular Clean Architecture organized by business features in lib/features/.

Structure

See references/folder-structure.md for the complete directory blueprint.

Implementation Guidelines

• Feature Encapsulation: Keep logic, models, and UI internal to the feature directory.
• Strict Layering: Maintain 3-layer separation (Domain/Data/Presentation) within each feature.
• Dependency Rule: Presentation -> Domain <- Data. Domain must have zero external dependencies.
• Cross-Feature Communication: Features only depend on the Domain layer of other features.
• Flat features: Keep lib/features/ flat; avoid nested features.
• No DTO Leakage: Never expose DTOs or Data Sources to UI or other features; return Domain Entities.
• Shared logic: Move cross-cutting concerns to lib/shared/ or lib/core/.

Reference & Examples
