If your goal with Flutter is just to build apps for Android and iOS, then you can disable web and desktop-related things. This makes your projects a little cleaner and lighter.
Solution
Web
In order to disable web in your future projects, execute this command:
flutter config --no-enable-web
You will see:
Setting "enable-web" value to "false".
From now on, your NEW projects will not have a folder named “web”:
Desktop
To disable macOS, Windows, and Linux all at once, run:
flutter config --no-enable-macos-desktop --no-enable-windows-desktop --no-enable-linux-desktop
Output:
Setting "enable-linux-desktop" value to "false".
Setting "enable-macos-desktop" value to "false".
Setting "enable-windows-desktop" value to "false".
If you want to disable it separately for each operating system, try the following commands.
macOS:
flutter config --no-enable-macos-desktop
Windows:
flutter config --no-enable-windows-desktop
Linux:
flutter config --no-enable-linux-desktop
You can see more options and flags by running:
flutter config
To make sure everything works as expected, you should restart all of your open code editors (VS Code, Notepad, etc).
What if you want to enable Web and Desktop again?
If one day you want to make a web app with Flutter, you can enable it again by running:
flutter config --enable-web
The same goes for the desktop stuff:
flutter config --enable-macos-desktop
flutter config --enable-windows-desktop
flutter config --enable-linux-desktop
