 ### Adding New Dependencies
 You can add custom [pub.dev](https://pub.dev/) package dependencies with the `Dart: Add Dependency` command from the Visual Studio Code command palette. This will update the `pubspec.yaml` file.
 
+## Using Flutter Version Management (FVM)
+If you want to manage Flutter versions with [**Flutter Version Management (FVM)**](https://fvm.app/), you need to install it and add it to your system’s PATH. Follow these steps to get started:
+
+### Install FVM
+
+To install **FVM**, run the following command in your terminal. This installs FVM globally using Dart’s package manager.
+
+```
+dart pub global activate fvm
+```
+
+### Add FVM to Your System’s PATH
+
+After installation, you need to add the directory containing FVM’s executables to your **PATH variable** so that it can be accessed globally.
+
+#### For macOS & Linux
+
+1. Open the Terminal and run the following command. It adds the `~/.pub-cache/bin` directory to your system's `PATH` permanently by updating your `~/.zshrc` file. This ensures that the FVM installed in `~/.pub-cache/bin` is accessible from anywhere in the terminal.
+    
+    ```bash
+    echo 'export PATH="$PATH":"$HOME/.pub-cache/bin"' >> ~/.zshrc  # For Zsh
+    echo 'export PATH="$PATH":"$HOME/.pub-cache/bin"' >> ~/.bashrc # For Bash
+    ```
+    
+2. Restart your terminal or run `source ~/.zshrc` (or `source ~/.bashrc`) to apply the changes.
+
+#### For Windows
+
+1. Locate the **FVM executable path**, typically:
+    
+    ```
+    C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\bin
+    ```
+    
+2. Add this path to your **System’s PATH variable**:
+    1. Open **System Properties** → **Advanced system settings**.
+    2. Click **Environment Variables**.
+    3. Under **System variables**, select **Path** → **Edit**.
+    4. Click **New** and add the above path.
+    5. Click **OK** and restart your terminal.
+
+
+### Verify the Installation
+
+To check if FVM is correctly installed and accessible, run:
+
+```bash
+fvm --version
+```
+
+If this command prints the installed version of FVM, it means FVM is successfully installed and added to PATH.
+
+
+### Configure FVM in Your Flutter Project
+
+Once FVM is installed, navigate to your Flutter project folder and set up FVM:
+
+```bash
+cd your-flutterflow-project
+fvm init
+fvm install <flutter_version>
+fvm use <flutter_version>
+```
+
+*(Replace `<flutter_version>` with the required Flutter version.)*

-Share Action can be used to send a text using the Android or iOS device's share dialog. You can send the text using email, message, or any other application present on the device that supports sharing functionality.

-## Define Share Action
-
-Go to your project page on FlutterFlow and follow the steps below to define an Upload Photo/Video Action to a widget:
-
-1. Select the **widget** in which you want to set the Action.
-
-2. Select the **Actions** from the Properties Panel (the right menu).
-
-3. Click **+ Add Action** button.
-
-4. Choose a gesture from the dropdown among ***On Tap****,* ***On Double Tap****,**or* **On Long 
-   Press**.
-
-5. Select the **Action Type** as ***Share***.
-
-6. Now, you need to specify a **URL/Text Value**. It can be set either by defining a **Specific 
-   Value** or by using **From Variable** to use a value stored inside a variable. 
-   - If you are using **Specific Value**, enter the text in the **Value** field. 
-   - If you are using **From Variable**, you need to select the **Source**.
-
-Demo of defining Share Action using a **Specific Value** is as follows:

 **Library values** are essentially variables created and used by a library author and intended to have their values set by the library user. These values allow library author to create configurable variables that are useful in different contexts, such as API keys, global settings, or other project-specific configurations. These values allow library users to input specific data required for the library to function properly in their project.
