A new Flutter application by Open Food Facts
This new mobile application aims to showcase Open Food Facts's power to a broad range of users through a smooth user experience and sleek user interface.
Smooth-app is developed in parallel to the openfoodfacts-dart plugin, which provides a high level interface with the Open Food Facts API. Every new interaction with the API should be implemented in the plugin in order to provide these new features to other developers.

In order to build the application, make sure you are in the packages/smooth_app directory and run these commands :
- flutter pub get
- flutter run
We need to change the supported architectures for iOS when we open the project in Xcode. There, in the settings, you can specify which ones you want to build for, and only specify the ones that are 64 bit.
Translations of the interface are managed using the new Flutter internationalization introduced in Flutter 1.22. New strings need to be added to lib/l10n/app_en.arb and the corresponding translations can be added through CrowdIn. Do not edit the other app_*.arb files as they will be overwritten by CrowdIn.
Smooth_app is made possible thanks to a grant by the Mozilla Foundation, after pitching them the idea at FOSDEM. a HUGE thank you :-)
