How to Exclude the Web Part from Flutter Projects

As a Flutter developer, you might have noticed a recent change in the project creation process. When you run the command Flutter create myproject, a web folder is automatically included, whether you need it or not. This can be inconvenient, especially if you focus solely on mobile app development. So, the question arises: Is there any way to exclude the web portion during Flutter create?

In this guide, we will guide you through the steps to disable the web portion in your Flutter projects, ensuring a streamlined development process that focuses on what you truly need. Let's dive in!

The Issue at Hand

With the rollout of new updates in Flutter, every time you create a project, the default setup now includes a web directory. For many developers, this is not necessary and can clutter your project structure. You may be looking for a way to avoid this additional web folder without setting it up manually every time. Fortunately, there is a simple solution to this problem.

This adjustment helps maintain a tidy project structure, making it easier to manage your app development efforts. Remember, if at any point you decide that you do want to include web support, you can always re-enable it by executing the command:
