flutter runFont Story supports optional AdMob integration for rewarded ads. The app loads these settings securely using flutter_dotenv.
If you want to enable rewarded ads, create a .env file by copying the sample:
cp .env.sample .envThen fill in your rewarded ad unit ID and ad toggle:
# .env
REWARDED_AD_ID=your-admob-rewarded_id
NO_ADS=false
⚠️ If you don’t want ads, setNO_ADS=true.
✅ The app skips ad code if ads are disabled.
Also, ensure .env is added to .gitignore to avoid committing secrets:
.envFont Story is built and optimized for mobile:
- ✅ Android (device or emulator)
- 🌐 Web – Usable in mobile view only
Other platforms are not officially supported, but you can still run the app for development or experimentation:
- 🧪 iOS (macOS required for build)
- 🖥️ macOS, Linux, and Windows (via Flutter desktop)
⚠️ These platforms may have UI/UX issues or limited compatibility.
